;ROTATION OF MOTORS: The correct rotating direction for the machine motor is clearly marked on the machine. Always check for proper rotation of motors. Incorrect rotation direction can cause severe damage.

;ELECTRICAL GROUNDING: All electrical equipment on the granulator must be grounded in accordance to all local codes and Article 250 of the National Electric Code.

;ALWAYS DISCONNECT AND LOCKOUT the main electrical power to the granulator before performing any service.

;SAFETY INTERLOCKS MUST NOT BE BYPASSED. The mechanical and electrical safety interlocks ensure the safety of personnel. They should never be tampered with or removed for ANY reason. They should be checked frequently by a qualified mechanic for proper operation.

;NEVER modify the machine configuration or any individual component without written notice from the factory.
