caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury

11. Refer all servicing to qualifi ed service personnel. Servicing is required 

when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-
supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have 
fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or 
moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

12. Exposure to extremely high noise levels may cause permanent hearing 

loss. Individuals vary considerably in susceptibility to noise-induced 
hearing loss, but nearly everyone will lose some hearing if exposed to 
suffi ciently intense noise for a period of time. The U.S. Government’s 
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has specifi ed 
the permissible noise level exposures shown in the following chart.

      According to OSHA, any exposure in excess of these permissible limits 

could result in some hearing loss. To ensure against potentially danger-
ous exposure to high sound pressure levels, it is recommended that all 
persons exposed to equipment capable of producing high sound pres-
sure levels use hearing protectors while the equipment is in operation. 
Ear plugs or protectors in the ear canals or over the ears must be worn 
when operating the equipment in order to prevent permanent hearing 
loss if exposure is in excess of the limits set forth here. 

WARNING — To reduce the risk of 

fi re or electric shock, do not expose this 

apparatus to rain or moisture.
