Basic safety instructions
for joint cutters
3.2.1 Designated use, predictable misuse
3.2.1.1 The joint cutter CF-22 E.800, in the following
referred to as “the machine”, is exclusively to be used as
a walk-behind hand-guided floor cutting machine for
cutting by means of diamond saw blades in wet cut-
ting operation of firmly installed components made of
asphalt, concrete and abrasive construction material
as used e.g. in roadwork, hall floors and runways! Using
the machine for purposes other than those mentioned
above is considered contrary to its designated use; in
particular the use of the machine with cutting tools
other than those approved by the manufacturer/distrib-
utor is prohibited. The manufacturer/distributor cannot
be held liable for any damage resulting from such use.
The risk of such misuse lies entirely with the user!
3.2.1.2 The machine is not approved for other use than the
one specified herein; this constitutes improper use!
3.2.1.3 Operating the machine within the limits of its
designated use also involves observing the instructions
set out in this operating manual and complying with the
inspection and maintenance directives.
3.2.1.4 The machine has been designed in accordance with
state-of-the-art standards and recognized safety rules.
Nevertheless, its use may constitute a risk to life and limb
of the user or of third parties, or cause damage to the
machine or other material property!
3.2.1.5 The machine must only be used in technically
perfect condition in accordance with its designated
use, the instructions set out in the operating manual
and the relevant national safety regulations, and only
by safety-conscious persons who are fully aware of the

instructions covering the duties involved in supervising
and notifying special organizational features, such as job
organization, work flows or the personnel entrusted with
the work.
3.2.2.4 Personnel entrusted with work on the machine
must have read the operating manual, in particular the
chapter "Safety instructions" prior to taking up work!
This applies especially to persons working only

maintenance activities!
3.2.2.5 Check -at least from time to time- whether the
personnel is carrying out the work in compliance with
the operating manual and paying attention to risks and
safety-relevant factors!

3.2.2.7 Personal protective equipment must be used
wherever required by the circumstances or by law
(e. g. safety glasses, ear protectors, safety boots, suitable
safety clothing). Depending on the operating conditions
of the machine, other personal safety equipment might
be required! Observe the regulations for the prevention
of accidents!
3.2.2.8 Observe all safety precautions and warnings
attached to the machine and always keep them in good
and perfectly legible condition.
3.2.2.9 In the event of safety-relevant modifications or
changes in the behaviour of the machine, stop the
machine immediately and report the malfunction to the
competent authority/person.
3.2.2.10 Do not remove or render inoperative any safety
devices the machine is equipped with!
3.2.2.11 Never make any modifications, additions or
conversions which might affect safety without the
manufacturer's/distributor's prior consent. This also
applies to the installation and adjustment of safety
devices as well as to welding work on supporting
structures!
3.2.2.12 Damaged or worn parts of the machine must be
replaced immediately! Only use original spare parts!
3.2.2.13 All spare parts and tools must comply with the
technical requirements specified by the manufacturer/
