2 Safety
This machine has been designed and manufactured with consideration to all
safety aspects. It reflects current engineering practice and the valid accident
prevention regulations. The machine left the factory in faultless condition and
guarantees a high level of technical safety. However, improper operation and
misuse will pose a risk to:
➤
the life and limb of the operator or third parties,
➤
the machine and other property of the owner,
➤
the efficient function of the machine.
Any method of work that has a negative influence on the safety of the operating
personnel and the machine is fundamentally prohibited. All persons involved in
the installation, commissioning, operation, care, repair and maintenance of the
machine must have read and understood the operation manual beforehand -
in particular the "Safety" chapter.
Your safety depends on it!
We recommend that the machine owner have this confirmed in writing.

observe this may result in damage to the machine or its environment.
Various pictograms are used in the safety notes for accident risks that may
result in injury, depending on the hazard source — examples:
