The use of special attachments provided for 

by the Manufacturer as original equipment or 

which may be purchased separately, allows this 

work to be done in various operating modes, 

illustrated in this manual or the instructions 

that accompany the single attachments.

Likewise, the intended use can be extended 

to include other functions by applying 

supplementary attachments (if provided 

for by the Manufacturer), abiding by the 

restrictions and conditions indicated in the 

instructions accompanying the attachment.

 3.1.2  Improper use

•  Any other usage not in keeping with 

the afore-mentioned ones may be 

hazardous and harm persons and/or 

damage things. Examples of improper

–  allowing children, animals or other 

passengers to ride on the machine as
