1.0 WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS
Four commonly used safety symbols accompany the DANGER, WARNING, and CAUTION
blocks. The type of informaon each indicates is as follows:
This General warning symbol points out important safety
informaon that, if not followed, could endanger personal safety
and/or property of others.
This Explosion warning symbol points out potenal explosion

This Fire warning symbol points out potenal re hazard(s).
This Electrical warning symbol points out potenal electrical
shock hazard(s).
Improper operaon of this equipment such as neglecng its maintenance or
being careless can cause possible injury or death. Permit only responsible and
capable persons to install, operate, and/or maintain this equipment.
Potenally lethal voltages and amperages are present in these machines. Ensure
all steps are taken to render the machine safe before aempng to work on the
equipment.
ELECTRICAL WARNING
• All hardware covered by this manual have dangerous electrical voltages and can
cause fatal electrical shock. Avoid contact with bare wires, terminals, connecons,
etc., on the hardware, if applicable. Ensure all appropriate covers, guards, grounds,
and barriers are in place before operang the equipment. If work must be done
around an operang unit, stand on an insulated dry surface to reduce shock hazard.
• Do not handle any kind of electrical device while standing in water, while barefoot, or
while hands or feet are wet. DANGEROUS ELECTRICAL SHOCK MAY RESULT.
• If trained personnel must stand on metal or concrete while installing, servicing,
adjusng, or repairing this equipment, place insulave mats over a dry wooden
plaorm. Work on the equipment only while standing on such insulave mats.
• The Naonal Electrical Code (NEC), Arcle 250 requires the frame of the equipment
to be connected to an approved earth ground and/or grounding rods. This grounding
will help prevent dangerous electrical shock that might be caused by a ground fault
condion or by stac electricity. Never disconnect the ground wire.
• Wire gauge sizes of electrical wiring, cables, and cord sets must be adequate to
handle the maximum electrical current (ampacity) to which they will be subjected.
