Do not clean electrical equipment with water or other fluids. To
remove dust, use a clean brush or dry cloth only. Do not clean
plastic surfaces with alcohol, detergent or solvents. Dispose of
cleaning materials in respect of current legislation. Do not dispose of

8.3
Safety regulations for repairs and
extraordinary maintenance
For all operations over and above normal routine maintenance,
contact an authorised repair workshop.
All operations must be performed by qualified
personnel with the necessary technical skills to
perform the operations in the maximum safety and in
respect of current legislation.
It should be noted that the warranty offered by the manufacturer is
invalidated if:
•
The instructions given in the "use and maintenance"
manual are not scrupulously respected,
•
Routine maintenance is not performed as and when
indicated;
•
Lubricants other than those specified are used;
•
Repairs or maintenance are performed by unqualified
personnel;
•
Non-original spare parts are used;
•
Unsuitable tools are used.
IMPORTANT - The customer is responsible for
verifying that original parts only are used when
carrying out repairs. The use of non-original spare
parts could jeopardise the safety of the machine.
When ordering spare parts, specify the model and serial number of
the machine and the reference number of the component in the
spare parts book and quantity.

Storing the machine
9.1
Storing the machine
If the machine is not used for long periods, protect exposed parts
(not protected by paint, surface treatment or plastic) with protective
rust prevention oils. If the machine is not to be used for particularly
long periods, you should also clean it thoroughly. After performing
these operations, seal the machine inside an opaque black
multilayer nylon bag together with a suitable drying agent (silica gel).

Disposal
10.1
Disposing of the machine
At the end of its working life, the machine must be scrapped and
disposed of by taking it to a local differentiated waste collection
centre in compliance with current legislation which must be followed
scrupulously. Before disposing of the machine, check the machine
rating plate. If it bears the
symbol, this means its disposal is
regulated by EC directive 2002/96 on Waste Electrical and
Electronic Equipment, WAEE. You should therefore seek
information on the local electrical and electronic products collection
system and follow the instructions. Disposing of this product illegally
in the household waste could cause serious damage to the
environment and human health and you may be liable to sanctions
from the local authority.
