RECOGNIZE SAFETY INFORMATION

SAFETY
This symbol, which will appear at various points in the
manual and on the rigid dump truck together with a
warning statement, means: "Warning, be alert! Your
safety is involved!" Carefully read the message that
follows. It is the obligation of the operator to make sure
that all warning decals are in place on the rigid dump
truck and that they are readable. Accidents may
otherwise occur.
• Follow recommended precautions and safe operating
practices.
• Every country (State) has its own safety regulations. It
is the obligation of the operator to know and follow
these. This also applies to local regulations covering
different types of work. Should the recommendations
in this manual deviate from those of your country
(State), your local safety regulations should be
followed.
UNDERSTAND SIGNAL WORD
On the rigid dump truck safety signs, signal words
designating the degree or level of hazard – DANGER,
WARNING, or CAUTION – are used with the safety alert
symbol.
• DANGER indicates an imminently hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious
injury.
• WARNING indicates a potential hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious
injury.
• CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate
injury.
• DANGER or WARNING safety signs are located
near specific hazards. General precautions are listed
on CAUTION safety signs.
These signal words also call attention to safety
messages in this manual.
To avoid confusing rigid dump truck protection with
personal safety messages, a signal word IMPORTANT
indicates a situation which, if not avoided, could result in
damage to the rigid dump truck.
NOTE: indicates an additional explanation for an
