WARNING . . . BEFORE APPLYING POWER TO THE MACHINE
Verify that the guarded area is clear of personnel and unwanted materials (such as tools) before applying power to the guarded
machine.
Failure to do so could result in serious bodily injury or death.
WARNING . . . DO NOT USE MACHINE UNTIL SYSTEM IS WORKING PROPERLY
If all of these checks cannot be verified, do not attempt to use or operate the machine until the defect or problem has been
corrected. Attempts to use the guarded machine under such conditions could result in serious bodily injury or death.
The replacement Scanner and the Scanner being replaced must agree as follows:

Mount the replacement device at the previous Scanner position.
Align the Scanner in the same way as the previous Scanner was.
