design determined by the intended purpose.
Residual risks can be minimised if the “Safe working” and the
“Proper use” as well as the whole of the operating
instructions are observed.
Observing these instructions, and taking proper care, will
reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the
equipment.
Failure to observe the safety precautions can lead to
injury to the operator or damage to property.
Carelessness, failure to comply with the safety
regulations and incorrect use can result in injuries to your
hands and fingers when the splitting blade is moving.
Risk from electricity, by using non-standard electrical
connections.
Touching live parts of opened electrical components.
In addition, in spite of all the precautionary measures taken,
non-obvious residual risks can still exist.
