and fully understood the information and instructions given in this manual. A copy of this manual 
should be made every operator. Extra copies of this manual can be supplied on request.  
 
2. Do not use the unit if any of the plates mounted on the unit are missing or if any of the information 
on the plates, as indicated at the end of the manual, are no longer legible. Identical plates will be 
supplied on request; these must be secured on the unit before it can be used again.  
 
3. Make sure that all persons operating this unit know perfectly how to use it in a safe way, in 
observance of all safety at work regulations. This manual must be made available to all users.  
 
4. The positioning and commissioning of this appliance must be carried out under conditions that 
ensure installer safety in compliance with the relevant regulations.  
 
5. Each time, before using the unit, inspect the unit for any visible damage, as well as the accessories 
used with the unit. Never use an appliance that is not obviously in good condition. Return the 
appliance to the manufacturer for servicing if any anomalies arise that have no connection with the 
state of the battery.  
 
6. Protect your appliance from any form of impact, especially the display unit.  
 
7. The unit must never be used for any operations other than those described in this manual. The unit 
must never be used to handle any loads exceeding the maximum utilization load indicated on the unit. 
It must never be used in explosive atmospheres.  
 
8. This appliance should never be used for man-riding applications without a thorough prior check that 
the utilization coefficients required for personnel safety have been applied, and more generally that the 
safety regulations for the load line on which it has been installed have been applied.  
 
9. Tractel declines any responsibility for use of this unit in a setup configuration not described in this 
manual.  
 
10. Tractel declines any responsibility for the consequences of any changes made to the unit or 
removal of parts.  
 
11. Tractel declines any responsibility for the consequences resulting from disassembly of the unit in 
any way not described in this manual or repairs performed without Tractel authorization, especially as 
concerns replacement of original parts by parts of another manufacturer.  
 
13. If the unit is to be definitively removed from use, make sure the unit is discarded in a way which 
will prevent any possible use of the unit. All environment protection regulations must be observed.  
 
14. Any operation of this appliance in conjunction with supplementary equipment relaying signals on 
an operating system must be preceded by a risk analysis related to the operating functions 
implemented, carried out by the system user or assembler, and all appropriate measures are taken as 
a consequence.  
 
15. Certified in compliance with European regulations, this appliance should be checked for 
compliance with the regulations of any other country where it might be used, prior to being 
commissioned there.
