opened. These areas present the ri sk of electric shock, burns, and
injury from mechanical hazards.
Any unauthorized removal of safety covers, manipulation of safety
switches, and interference with the safety system is strictly
prohibited. Such actions can cause personal injury and can damage
the system. Also make sure that the operating and maintenance
areas are not obstructed in any way.
With any drive mechanism, loosely hanging items of clothing and
