General

complied with.
Intended use
Non-intended use
Residual risk There is always an increased risk of accidents in the
immediate danger area around the machine if the operator
fails to notice persons in the vicinity of the machine.
Make anyone close to the machine aware of this risk. The
operator must not put the machine into operation unless
everyone in the vicinity of the machine is aware of this risk.
The machine should only be used in technically faultless
condition, as intended, in a safety-conscious and hazard-
conscious manner, and in compliance with the instructions in
the operating manual.
Malfunctions that may impair safety require that you stop
working with the machine immediately. These types of damage
must be reported and corrected without delay.
The machine is designed exclusively for compacting:
- Sand,
- Gravel,
- Crushed rock,
- Low-cohesive mixed material,
- Asphalt,
- Paved surfaces.
The operator's work position is behind the machine.
The operator must guide the machine safely with both hands
on the handle.
Unless used as intended, the machine involves a risk of
personal injury and property damage. The machine is
expressly not suitable for:
- compacting frozen subsurfaces,
- compacting hard soils that cannot be compacted
further,
- compacting non-bearing material,
- compacting highly cohesive soils,
- compacting (ramming) that exerts point loads on the
base plate,
- crushing and compacting individual rocks.
The responsibility for any damage arising from non-intended
use falls on the owner / operator.
Non-intended use or misuse will void all liability and warranty
claims.
