Introduction
The burners have been designed and built in compliance with
current regulations and directives, applying the known technical
rules of safety and envisaging all the potential danger situations.
It is necessary, however, to bear in mind that the imprudent and
clumsy use of the equipment may lead to situations of death risk
for the user or third parties, as well as the damaging of the burn-
er or other items. Inattention, thoughtlessness and excessive
confidence often cause accidents; the same applies to tiredness
and sleepiness.
It is a good idea to remember the following:
The burner must only be used as expressly described.
Any other use should be considered improper and therefore
dangerous.
In particular:
it can be applied to boilers operating with water, steam,
diathermic oil, and to other users expressly named by the
manufacturer;
the type and pressure of the fuel, the voltage and frequency of
the electrical power supply, the minimum and maximum deliv-
eries for which the burner has been regulated, the pressurisa-
tion of the combustion chamber, the dimensions of the
combustion chamber and the room temperature must all be
within the values indicated in the instruction manual.
Modification of the burner to alter its performance and destina-
tions is not allowed.
The burner must be used in exemplary technical safety condi-
tions. Any disturbances that could compromise safety must be
quickly eliminated.
Opening or tampering with the burner components is not
allowed, apart from the parts requiring maintenance.
Only those parts envisaged by the manufacturer can be
replaced.
2.2
Personnel training
The user is the person, body or company that has acquired the
machine and intends to use it for the specific purpose. He is re-
sponsible for the machine and for the training of the people
working around it.
The user:
Undertakes to entrust the machine exclusively to suitably
trained and qualified personnel.
Must take all the measures necessary to prevent unauthorised
people gaining access to the machine.
Undertakes to inform his personnel in a suitable way about the
application and observance of the safety instructions. With
that aim, he undertakes to ensure that everyone knows the
use and safety instructions for his own duties.
Must inform the manufacturer if faults or malfunctioning of the
accident prevention systems are noticed, along with any pre-
sumed danger situation.
Personnel must always use the personal protective equipment
envisaged by legislation and follow the indications given in this
manual.
Personnel must follow all the danger and caution indications
shown on the machine.
Personnel must not carry out, on their own initiative, opera-
tions or interventions that are not within their province.
Personnel are obliged to inform their superiors of every prob-
lem or dangerous situation that may arise.
The assembly of parts of other makes, or any modifications,
can alter the characteristics of the machine and hence com-
promise operating safety. The manufacturer therefore
declines any and all responsibility for any damage that may
be caused by the use of non-original parts.
