Machine instability can result in injury or severe damages. To ensu-
re stability during operation make sure to choose a flat, dry floor free
from any tall grass, brush or other interferences. The working area
around the machine must be kept as clear as possible from surroun-
ding tripping obstacles and slippery foundation floors should be duly
treated (do not use saw dust or wood ash for this purpose).
Make sure that the equipment stands on a safe stable foundation.
