Warning Symbol Graphics
Throughout this manual, and on the decals of your machine, you will find
many types of safety symbols. It is essential to understand the meaning of
each type of symbol and to follow their directives.
Safety symbols are important safety graphics to convey in picture form what
the hazard or message is. Any symbol in a yellow triangle is meant to
communicate a hazard, such as “fire hazard”. A symbol in a blue circle is
meant to communicate a mandatory safety action such as “read this
manual”. A symbol in a circle with a red border and a line through it is
meant to communicate an action not to take, such as “no smoking”.
