• The user is also advised to be thoroughly familiar with the site itself. This enables the user
to gain a greater insight into possible obstacles that may present themselves and he can
then plan his route around them.
• The user must draw up a list that registers the number of hours worked. This will ensure
that the repetitive maintenance schedule can be followed correctly in relation to the ma-
chine.
Warning:
A moment of distraction or carelessness can lead to life long regret.

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
• Suitable clothing must be worn when operating this machine. This means clothing that
covers the entire body. Sturdy gloves and enclosed shoes with steel toecaps and gripping
soles are useful for this type of work.
• Clothing must never be worn loosely.
Caution:
If wearing a scarf, do not forget to tuck the ends in your jacket or your jumper.
• If the user has long hair, it should be secured in a pony tail and kept in place with a cap,
hat or headband.
• For protection of the most sensitive senses, ELIET recommends hearing protection and
protective goggles.
• Pay particular attention and be careful when using hearing protection as they can impair
the ability to hear warning sounds (such as yelling, signal tones, etc.). ELIET thus advises
against using hearing protection with built-in music devices or the use of a “Walkman” or
portable MP3- player while working.
• As indicated on the safety sticker on the machine, the operator must wear safety gloves
and safety goggles in addition to hearing protection.
• The use of mittens is not advised as they impede the ability to operate the machine. You
are advised to wear gloves with individual fingers.
