to make an inspection. If the carrier will not do so, prepare
a signed statement to the effect that you have notified the
carrier (on a specific date) and that the carrier has failed to
comply with your request.

INSTALLER / OPERATOR
PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
Personal protective equipment helps makes installation
and operation safer, however, it does not take the place
of safe operating practices. Always wear durable work
clothing during any installation and/or service activity.
Shop aprons or shop coats may also be worn, however
loose fitting clothing should be avoided. Tight fitting
leather gloves are recommended to protect technician
hands when handling parts. Sturdy leather work shoes
with steel toes and oil resistant soles should be used by
all service personnel to help prevent injury during typical
installation and operation activities.
Eye protection is essential during installation and operation
activities. Safety glasses with side shields,
goggles, or face shields are acceptable.
Back belts provide support during lifting
activities and are also helpful in providing
worker protection. Consideration should
also be given to the use of hearing protection if service
activity is performed in an enclosed area, or if noise levels
are high.
THIS SYMBOL POINTS OUT IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WHICH IF NOT FOLLOWED
COULD ENDANGER THE PERSONAL SAFETY AND/OR PROPERTY OR YOURSELF AND OTHERS
AND CAN CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS IN
THIS MANUAL BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO OPERATE THIS MACHINE.
