4.1 TECHNICAL DATA PLATE
Every DiamaPro machine carries a registration plate showing essential
details that are necessary when contacting the supplier/manufacturer for
advice, suggestions or information on spare parts. The following details are
included on the plate:
• Manufacturer
• Model
• Supply voltage
• Installed rated power
• CE symbol (built in compliance with Machinery Directive 2006/42/EEC)
4.2 SAFETY DEVICE
The vacuum cleaner has been manufactured in compliance with all legal
standards for the operator’s safety.
• All metal components are grounded to eliminate shock or electrostatic
discharge, including the flexible suction hose that is properly grounded.
Also in this regard the choice of a suitable flexible suction hose allows to
eliminate this risk on the hose length that goes from the use area to the
vacuum cleaner.
• The brakes fitted onto the anterior pivoting casters safely fix the machine
in its place of use where there may be a risk of movement due to uneven
floor surfaces or other particular working conditions.
BEFORE USING THE MACHINE CHECK THAT THE
MACHINE HAS NOT SUFFERED ANY SHOCKS OR
DAMAGES DURING THE TRANSPORT THAT CAN
AFFECT THE OPERATION OF THE ABOVE DEVICES
