NOTICE TO OPERATORS

CAUTION

The concept of frame mounted type FLOOR PLANERs has been successfully utilized for many years as a practical solution to many types of random FLOOR PLANER requirements. The basic concept is proven and well accepted within the associated marketplaces. Use of a FLOOR PLANER requires strenuous work activity. This type of work activity can be considered to be greater in magnitude than that experienced with the use of many other types of both light construction and lawn and garden related equipment. This type of work activity should only be attempted by operators of adequate physical size and stature, mental awareness and physical strength and condition. The body parts most noticeably affected during the planing process are the arms, hands, wrists, shoulders, lower back and legs. The process can also produce excessive stress/strain directly to the back muscles, spinal vertebrae and many other body parts. Back related pain can be a side effect of utilizing a FLOOR PLANER. An operator with a chronic back related problem or a history of back and/or other medically related problems should not attempt to utilize the FLOOR PLANER. Use of the FLOOR PLANER may only aggravate this and any other medically related problem. Because of the diverse type of prevailing job applications, job site conditions, operator experience levels and operator physical characteristics, no warranty, guarantee, representation and/or liability is made by the manufacturer as to the absolute correctness or sufficiency of any operational procedure, operational position and/or technique. There is no absolute guarantee that an operator of any given experience level, physical size and/or physical condition will be immune to the possibility of and/or probable physical side effects of the normal use of the FLOOR PLANER. Each potential operator must be made aware of and assume the operational and physical liability described and/or associated with the use of the FLOOR PLANER. Improper use of the FLOOR PLANER can result in property damage and/or personal injury, including death. Each potential operator not willing to assume the operational and physical liability described and/or associated with the use of the FLOOR PLANER, should not operate it. Proper levels of operator experience, skill and common sense are essential for maximizing the safe and efficient operation of the FLOOR PLANER.
