CAUTIONS Symbols in this manual To ensure safe use of the machine, this manual uses various safety symbols. The safety symbols are classified as explained below. Be sure you understand the meaning of the symbols when reading the manual. Symbol Meaning WARNING Indicates a risk of death or serious injury. CAUTION Indicates a risk of human injury or property damage.
CAUTIONS Installation notes CAUTION Do not install the machine on an unstable or slanted surface. Install the machine on a surface that can withstand the weight of the machine. When the machine is installed, the adjusters (4) must be lowered to the floor to secure the machine (prevent it from moving). Risk of injury due to the machine falling or toppling.
