Safety
2 Safety
At the time of its development and production, the machi-
ne was built in accordance with prevailing technological
regulations and therefore conforms to industry safety
standards.
However, hazards may arise should the machine be
operated by untrained personnel, be used improperly or
employed for purposes other than those it was designed
for. The chapter entitled „Safety“ offers an overview of
all the important safety considerations necessary to opti-
mise safety and ensure the safe and trouble-free operati-
on of the machine.
Additionally, in order to further minimize risks, the other
chapters of this manual contain specific safety instruc-
tions, all marked with symbols. Besides the various
instructions, there are a number of pictograms, signs and
labels affixed to the machine that must also be heeded.
These must be kept visible and legible and may not be
removed.
2.1 Intended use
The machine described in this manual is intended solely
for processing wood and similar machinable materials.
Operational safety is guaranteed only when the machine
is used for its intended purposes.
Attention: Any use se outside the machines intended purposes shall be considered improper and is therefore
not permitted. All claims regarding damage resulting from improper use that are made against the manufac-
turer and its authorized representatives shall be rejected. The operator shall be solely liable for any damage
that results from improper use of the machine.
The term „proper use“ also refers to correctly observing
the operating conditions as well as the specifications and
instructions in this manual.
The machine may only be operated with parts and origi-
nal and or genuine accessories from the manufacturer.
2.2 Manual contents
All those appointed to work on or with the machine must
have fully read and understood the manual before com-
mencing any work. This requirement must be met even
if the appointed person is familiar with the operation of
such a machine or a similar one, or has been trained
by the manufacturer. Knowledge about the contents of
this manual is a prerequisite for protecting personnel
from hazards and avoiding mistakes so that the machine
may be operated in a safe and trouble-free manner. It is
recommended that the operator request proof from the
personnel that the contents of the manual have in fact
been read and understood.
2.3 Making changes and modifications to the machine
In order to minimize risks and to ensure optimal perfor-
mance, it is strictly prohibited to alter, retrofit or modify
the machine in any way without the express consent of
the manufacturer. All the pictograms, signs and labels af-
fixed to the machine must be kept visible, readable and
may not be removed. Pictograms, signs and labels that
have become damaged or unreadable must be replaced
promptly.
