brakes on the castors and make sure they are working properly.

As the operator, carry out a thorough and precise function check once the device has been set up. Prior to
commissioning, clean the device and remove any contamination from transport. Make sure that no connecting
cables from the hand or foot switch to the motor are trapped in the mechanism and thus damaged. Operation
in potentially explosive atmospheres is not permitted.
