Safety Instructions
2.1
General Safety Directives
The following EC Directives apply to the safety of the machinery:
Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, Annex II No.1 B
and applied harmonized standards
EN ISO 12100-1 and 12100-2
The air amplifiers may be the source of hazards if they are used by untrained staff,
or are used incorrectly or abnormally. Each person that is instructed to operate or
maintain the air amplifiers must have read and understood the complete assembly
instructions before carrying out the corresponding activities. This also applies if the
person in question has already operated, or received training for, the air amplifiers.
We recommend that the operating company should obtain written confirmation from
staff that they are familiar with the assembly instructions. Familiarity with the content
of the assembly instructions is one of the prerequisites for protecting people against
hazards and for avoiding errors and hence for operating the air amplifiers safely and
without malfunction. The assembly instructions must be available to operators and
maintenance staff at all times! The operating company, or staff authorized by it to
use the air amplifiers within the scope of their duties, is responsible for ensuring
accident-free operation.
Work safety-related data is based on currently valid directives issued by the
European Community. In other countries, the relevant laws and regulations must be
complied with. The operating company must determine the current status of all
regulations both for the European Community and for other countries. Apart from the
work safety information in these assembly instructions, generally accepted safety
and accident prevention regulations must be observed and complied with.
All information given in the assembly instructions must be observed unconditionally!
