1 Safety Instructions and the signal words and symbols used
This publication offers practical safety instructions to indicate the unavoidable residual risks
involved when operating the machine. These residual risks involve hazards to
- Personnel
- Product and machine
- The environment
The primary aim of the safety instructions is to prevent personal injury!
The signal words used in this publication are specifically designed to direct your attention to possible
damage extent!
DANGER indicates a hazardous situation the consequence of which could
be fatal or severe injuries if it is not prevented.
WARNING indicates a hazardous situation which could lead to fatal
injury or severe injuries if it is not prevented.
CAUTION indicates a hazardous situation which could lead to minor
injuries if it is not prevented.
NOTICE indicates possible material damage.
Safety instructions are not only denoted by a signal word but also by
hazard warning triangles. Red hazard warning triangles indicate
immediate danger to life. Yellow hazard warning triangles indicate a
possible risk to life and limb. Hazard warning triangles can contain
different symbols to illustrate the danger. However, the symbol used is no
substitute for the actual text of the safety instructions. The text must
therefore always be read in full!
