6.1 Safety instructions
Warning! Danger! Electric current:
There is a risk of injury as a result of falling parts while transporting, loading or unloading the machine.
Attention! Risk of material damage!
The machine can be damaged or destroyed if it is subjected to
improper handling during transport.
For this reason the following safety instructions must be
observed:
• Never lift loads over a person.
• Always move the machine with the utmost care and
precaution.
• Only use suitable lifting accessories and hoisting
devices that have a sufficient load-carrying capacity.
• Never transport the machine by putting pressure on
any of its projecting elements (e.g. the planer tables).
• Consider the machine‘s centre of gravity when trans-
porting it (minimise the risk of it tipping over).
• Take measures to prevent the machine from slipping
sideways.
• Ropes, belts or other hoisting devices must be equip-
ped with safety hooks.
• Do not use torn or worn ropes.
• Do not use knotted ropes or belts.
• Ensure that ropes and belts do not lie against sharp
edges.
• Transport the machine as carefully as possible in
order to prevent damage.
• Avoid subjecting the machine to shocks.
When transporting the machine overseas, ensure
that the packaging is airtight and that a desiccant is
added to protect the metal parts against corrosion.
