WORD OF EXPLANATION
Manufacturers produce machines with many
built-in safety features. Employers provide
accident prevention programs.Yet, the ultimate
responsibility to operate and maintain your
machine with the skill, care and knowledge
essential for safety is YOURS.
Do not operate your machine until you have been
trained in the use of all operating controls and
understand the handling characteristics of the
machine.
REMEMBER — SAFETY ... YOURS AND THAT OF
THOSE AROUND YOU ... IS UP TO YOU!
If you do not understand any of this information, or
if errors or contradictions seem to exist, consult with
your supervisor before operating your machine.
IMPORTANT: If you do not have the
manufacturer's manual(s) for your particular
machine, get a replacement manual from your
employer, equipment dealer, or manufacturer
of your machine. Keep this safety manual and
the manufacturer's manual(s) with your
machine.
Unauthorized modifications of machines create
hazards. Machines should not be modified or altered
unless prior approval is obtained from the manufacturer.
