ELIET dealer for further explanation. The help desk at ELIET is at your service to answer all of

• Think about what you are doing at every manoeuvre. Do not be tempted to let routine dull
your attention. Never act impulsively or on reflex.
• Despite the extensive safety features, do not seek out dangerous situations.

machine is not equipped to suck up other objects. This will increase wear and tear and reduce
the machine’s life expectancy.

end of the suction hose.
