Machinery general safety
warnings
1. Always wear protective eye wear when
operating machinery. Eye wear shall be impact
resistant, protective safety glasses with side
shields which comply with ANSI Z87.1
specifications. Use of eye wear which does not
comply with ANSI Z87.1 specifications could
result in severe injury from the breakage of the
eye protection.
2. Wear proper apparel. No loose clothing or
jewelry which can get caught in moving parts.
Contain long hair. Rubber soled, nonslip
footwear is recommended for best footing.
3. Do not overreach. Failure to maintain a proper
working position can cause you to fall into the
machine or cause your clothing to get caught —
pulling you into the machine.
4. Keep guards in place and in proper working
order. Do not operate the machine with the
guards removed.
5. Avoid dangerous working environments. Do not
use stationary machine tools in wet or damp
locations. Keep work areas clean and well lit.
6. Avoid accidental starts by being sure that the
start switch is in the “OFF” position before
plugging in the machine.

unattended. The machine shall be shut off
whenever it is not being used.
8. Disconnect the electrical power before
servicing, whenever changing accessories or
when general maintenance is done on the
machine.
9. Maintain all machine tools with care. Follow all
maintenance instructions for lubricating and the
changing of accessories. No attempt shall be
made to modify or have makeshift repairs done
to the machine. This not only voids the warranty
but also renders the machine unsafe.
10. If there is any risk of tipping or sliding, the
machinery must be anchored to the floor.
