It is an electrical appliance compliant with the applicable safety standards. In the event of malfunction, repairs must be carried out by  

qualified personnel approved by Essilor. Otherwise, user safety is likely to be compromised.

In the event of a long period of non-use and before maintenance and/or replacement of certain accessories, you must unplug your edger  

from the mains.

The equipment must be plugged into an earthed power supply. The earthing must comply with public standards and be checked by a 

technician. Avoid using extension cables or adaptors which could create a poor contact.

Never pull on the cables to unplug them from the power socket.

Before plugging your edger into the mains, check that the switch is set to OFF or 0.

If the switch no longer operates ON/OFF (0/I) you must stop using your edger. Defective switches  must be replaced by an approved  

repairer.

Your system is a professional tool which must only be used by specialized, responsible operators. It must not be used by anyone apart from  

these operators.

This machine is neither adapted nor intended to operate in an environment where there is a risk of explosion. Do not use this system in the 

presence of liquids or flammable gases.

Make sure that the equipment is connected to a mains supply which complies with standard NFC 15-100. In addition, make sure that the 

plug type is 3-pin 10/16 A (earthed) protected by a high sensitivity differential circuit-breaker, maximum 30 mA, and that the wall outlet is  

easy to access.

It is strongly advised to wear gloves to protect your hands when you empty the tank to clean it.

WAVES

Electromagnetic waves emitted by various equipment (radio and TV receivers, mobile phones, radio transmitters, etc.) are likely to disturb 

the operation of the instrument. This instrument is also likely to interfere with this same equipment. Avoid installing or placing devices likely  

to generate interference close to the instrument. Likewise, never place the instrument on or near this type of device. The instrument could  

be subject to malfunction or breakdown.

Interference and micro-outages

The products  have been designed to resist  interference and operate despite its presence and the possibility  of micro-outages  on  the  

network. However, if these malfunctions are too serious and abnormal, the machine cannot be guaranteed to operate normally.
