I used to work with a physics postdoc who would sometime leave a sign on an equipment setup that read, "Do not touch. There are hidden dangers."

The lab was full of smart people who were used to looking at things and making their own well-reasoned conclusions about whether it was OK to change something. This was a warning not to be too hasty about doing that!
