3 Safety instructions for implements
The most important safety instructions in this manual can not cover all possibilities. It goes without
saying that common sense and caution are factors that are not built into a machine, but must be
brought by the person who uses and maintains the machine.
In order to keep the accident risk as low as possible, please observe
the following subchapters.
3.1 Intended use
•
The sweeper has been developed for sweeping on paved surfaces, sidewalks and facilities
for the usual or common use in the field of area care.
•
Any other use is considered improper. The manufacturer is not liable for any damage
resulting therefrom, the risk being solely borne by the operator.
•
Proper use also includes compliance with the operating, maintenance and service
conditions specified by the manufacturer.
•
The attachment may only be used, maintained and repaired by persons who are familiar
with it and have been informed of the dangers.
•
The relevant accident prevention regulations as well as the other generally accepted safety
and occupational medical rules must be observed.
•
Unauthorized modifications to the machine lead to the exclusion of liability of the
manufacturer for the resulting damage.
