WATERBLAST SAFETY
Recognizing Safety Information
One of Jetstream’s ongoing endeavors is to min-
imize or elminate the risk of injury to the product
user. Jetstream has taken every effort to alert the
user to potential safety risks through the use of cau-
tionary statements within the operator manual and
safety decals on its products. Be sure to take the
time to identify and understand these notications
wherever they may be.
Always follow recommended precautions and safe
operating practices.
Understanding Signal Words
This is the safety-alert symbol. When you see
this symbol on your unit or in this manual, be alert
to the potential for personal injury. The safety-alert
symbol is often used in conjunction with signal
words.
A signal word – DANGER, WARNING, or CAUTION – is
used with the safety-alert symbol. DANGER identies
the most serious hazards.
This symbol and these signal words appear on the
unit and in this manual. Read and understand the
following denitions of the signal words before oper-
ating or working on the unit.
Danger is used to indicate the presence of a hazard
which WILL cause severe physical injury or death if
proper precautions are not taken.
Warning is used to indicate the presence of a hazard
which MAY cause serious physical injury or death,
and can result in serious property damange if proper
precautions are not taken.
Caution is used to indicate the presence of a hazard
which MAY cause some physical injury or property
damage if proper precautions are not taken.

tenance information which is important but is not
