wash tunnel while equipment is running. Vehicle damage and injury, including death,
can occur.
5. Always exercise caution when walking (never run) through the wash tunnel as there

are permitted to enter the wash tunnel to perform inspections or maintenance. At least

to warn people that the equipment is starting.
12. Do not operate any piece of equipment that requires safety covers with those covers
removed or improperly installed. Do not operate any piece of equipment if any
component of that piece is suspected to be defective or malfunctioning.
