Placement of cautions in procedures

["HSC Italian" <twins398 -at- hotmail -dot- com>]

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone on this list knows of any good resources that 
clearly defines where cautions/warnings should be placed within a set of 
procedures, and how often they should appear.

The following example is how I was taught (to put the cautions before the 
step):

1. Remove the push-in fastener that secures the head-open flag indicator to 
the toggle shaft. Remove    the head-open flag.

2. Remove the screw from the head-open latch. Remove the latch.

Caution: Wear protective eyewear when installing or removing E-rings, 
C-clips, snap rings, springs, and mounting buttons. These are under tension 
and could fly off.

3. Remove the C-clip from the end of the auxiliary roller shaft.

If anyone has any insight, resource, and the like, you feedback would be 
much appreciated. In addtion, how often should cautions/warnings appear in 
procedures, just in the first instance, or before each instance the 
caution/warning is needed.

TIA,

HSC
