are  observed.  Storage  times  at  the  dealer  or  with  paying
parties  are  not  included  in  this  period.  However,  we  would
like to emphasise that the product is reliable far beyond this

defined  period  of  time,  provided  that  it  is  cared  for  and
maintained properly.
The  product  must  first  be  thoroughly  cleaned  and  disinfec­

examined  by  an  qualified  specialist  to  check  the  condition
and  to  look  for  wear  and  possible  damage.  All  worn  and
damaged  parts  as  well  as  components  which  do  not  fit  or
