2 Safety
This chapter contains an overview of all important safety aspects.
In addition, the individual sections contain specific safety instructions on how danger can be avoided, indicated
by the appropriate symbols. Furthermore, the pictograms, signs and instructions on the appliance must be ob-
served and kept in readable condition.
Observation of the safety instructions permits optimal protection of the personnel and third parties from hazards
and ensures safe and reliable operation of the equipment.
2.1 Introduction
The appliance conforms to the current standard of technology and operational safety.
However, dangers can arise from this appliance if it is used by not properly trained personnel, used improperly
or used for a purpose other than that intended.
Every person, who is asked to work with or carry out work on the appliance, is required to read the operating
manual and have understood it before working with the equipment. This also applies to people who have al-
ready worked with such an appliance or a similar one or who were trained by the manufacturer.
Knowledge of the content of the operating manual is a prerequisite for protecting personnel for danger and
avoiding mistakes and thus ensure safe and reliable operation of the appliance.
To avoid danger and ensure optimal performance, no modifications or changes may be made to the equipment,
unless they have been expressly approved by the manufacturer.
All safety signs and operating instructions on the appliance must always be kept in a clearly readable condition.
Damaged or unreadable signs must be replaced immediately.
The settings and ranges of values shown in the operating manual must be adhered to.
The employer is advised to obtain confirmation from the operator that he/she had read and understood the op-
erating manual.
2.2 Responsibility of the owner / operator
The appliance may only be used when it is in a safe condition and in perfect working order. The owner/operator
is responsible for ensuring reliable operation of the equipment. The instructions given in the operating manual
are to be respected in full and without reservations!
The statements about the work safety refer to the directives of the European Union, valid at the time of manu-
facture of the appliance. During the entire working life of the equipment, the owner/operator is obliged to com-
pare the above mentioned safety protection measures with those currently in force and heed any new rules
which may have been introduced subsequently. Outside the European Union, the work safety laws and local
regulations valid where the equipment is used must be respected.
2.3 Proper use
Operational safety of the appliance is only assured when the equipment is used according to the instructions
contained in the operating manual.
The single brush machine is only designed for scrubbing, polishing, cleaning waterproof and abrasion resistant
floor and shampooing textil coverings inside buildings.
The vac unit available as an accessory can be used to suck in dry polish dust and swarf.
The surfaces to be cleaned must be flat and not exceed an inclination of more than 10 percent. You must not go
over uneven bumps, such as thresholds and steps, when cleaning. The machine may not be used in damp loca-
tions.
'Proper use' also means observing the correct procedures concerning set up, operation, maintenance and
cleaning instructions.
Every use of the appliance which goes beyond this and/or other use is forbidden and will be regarded
as improper use! Claims for damage, of whatever kind, resulting from improper use against the manu-
facturer and/or his representatives are excluded. The operator alone is liable for all damage which may
arise from improper use.
