I'm no expert here but I would image it would be 'safe' in the loosest sense of the word.

You certainly don't want anything near it that could be sucked in / fall in. No dirt, debris, tools, dangling electrical connectors etc.

Just my two cents, but I keep learning that taking short cuts with the X is usually a bad idea in the long run.
