BE A SAFE OPERATOR

AVOID ACCIDENTS

Included with this manual is a Safety Poster which we ask that that you place in the area where your equipment is stored. This is in tended to serve as a constant reminder to be safety conscious.

To read reports from all over the country is to be convinced that that a large number of accidents can be prevented only the operator anticipating the result before the accident is caused and doing something about it. No power equipment can be safer than the man who is at the controls. If accidents are to be prevented - and they most certainly can be prevented - operators must accept their full to measure of responsibility.

It is true that the designer, the manufacturer and the safety engineer can help, but their combined efforts can be wiped out by a single careless act.

It is said "the best kind of safety device is a careful operators". We ask you to be that kind of person.
