1.4. General Guidelines
1. This manual contains basic directions which should be
observed
during setting
-
up, operation, and
maintenance. Therefore, this manual must be read and
understood by all applicable personnel, prior to starting
up and using the machine. The manual must be
available to operators/users at all times. Any
instructions which are not understood must be clarified
before initial operation of the machine. For clarification,
please consult your Spudnik agent or contact Spudnik
directly.
2. All safety instructions must be observed, both the
general safety instructions given here, and the specific
safety instructions given elsewhere in this manual.
3. Observe the advice contained in this manual as well as
generally applicable safety and accident prevention
regulations.
4. Always wear proper protective clothing/equipment
when operating, adjusting, or servicing the machine.
5. If safety instructions are not complied with, the
operator/user risks injury to themselves and others, as
well as damage to the environment or the machine.
Non
-
compliance with safety instructions can void
claims for damages.
1.3. Exemption From Liability
1. The Owner/Operator assumes all responsibility/liability
for possible dangers or injuries arising from operating
the machine in a way which does not comply with its
designed use.
2. Damage to agricultural produce which is particularly
vulnerable to damage during processing cannot be
entirely eliminated. Weather conditions, the quality of
the produce and many other factors beyond the
manufacturer’s or operator’s control have an impact on
the susceptibility to damage of the produce being
processed. For example, the fertilizing (nitrogen
content), the degree of maturity (firmness of the skin),
the temperature during processing, and many other
factors can have an effect on the vulnerability of the
produce. The examples are not intended to be
exhaustive.
3. To avoid damage to agricultural produce the user must
adapt the machine to the existing operating conditions.
The results produced by the machine must be
constantly monitored and checked.
4. Spudnik shall not be liable for any damage to
agricultural produce and other items, which occur as a
result of operating and adjustment errors or other
incorrect usage.
5. Spudnik accepts no liability for any damage caused as
a result of operators not complying with the specified
use of the machine. This includes damage of
agricultural produce which, because of uncontrollable
external influences, cannot be avoided within the
current state of the art.

practice, which could result in severe injury or death.
This includes hazards that are exposed when guards
