Target group of these operating instructions  

These operating instructions are intended for all persons working on and using 

the dryer. We assume that all such persons are specialist personnel, e.g. fitters 

or electricians.  

Operating instructions: handling 

These operating instructions must be continuously available at the site where the 

dryer is used. We recommend to prepare a copy and to keep the same in a safe 

and freely accessible place next to the dryer. Keep the original document in a 

safe place.
