Safety Tips
If required, our customer service team
can arrange maintenance
service.
The Beta A2 Press
meets the European Legislation standard.
Under normal conditions accidents are rare. However, listed
below are some practical points to ensure your safety.
Always switch off
and isolate the mains supply (i.e.
remove plug) before undertaking any maintenance
work.
Keep other peopl
e away from the machine during use.
Ensure that there is
sufficient space around the
machine. Cables and connections must not get jammed.
Although the heat radiation of the press is low, there
should be enough space for cooling down.
Avoid contact
with the press element.
DO NOT REMOVE THE TOP COVER UNLESS
QUALIFIED TO DO SO
- touching internal parts is
dangerous and may cause shock hazard.
PROTECT THE MAINS CABLE
- damage to the mains
cable may cause fire or shock hazard. When unplugging, hold
by the plug only and remove carefully. Take care that the
mains cable does not come into contact with the heat plate (or
moving parts of the mechanism) during operation of the
machine.
