Safety
User groups
To ensure safety, we place requirements on the users of the TFG, that must be adhered
to under all circumstances. Only persons who meet the requirements are entitled to use
the TFG.
We refer to all persons who operate, use, commission the telescopic pillar, process it fur-
ther or pass it on for further processing as user groups. As the requirements of these
user groups strongly depend on their role, we distinguish between the following user
groups:
Operating authority
The operating authority is the contractual partner of the person doing the further pro-
cessing or the reseller. They can impose legal conditions on the operating authority
when purchasing the telescopic pillar. The operating authority ensures that the user is
instructed in the authorized use of the equipment.
Processor
The processor is the contractual partner of the reseller or the manufacturer. He assem-
bles the telescopic pillar into a complete device. He is authorized by the manufacturer to
use the telescopic pillar TFG in accordance with the regulations and has the necessary
expert knowledge.
Technician
The technician has the professional technical training to utilize the telescopic pillar TFG
according to its authorized use. Apart from the chapter on
Safety
, he is also familiar with
the chapter on
Special operating modes
. He will find the required technical data in the
Appendix
.
Reseller
The reseller forwards the machine.
Operator
Any other person who uses the TFG is defined as an operator. The operator must have
read the
Safety
chapter in this manual before using the machine. Moreover, he must be
instructed about the
normal operation
by the
operating authority
.
Types of operation

Danger zones

role.

also includes, in addition to the actual user, third per-
sons (other personnel, visitors, patients etc.). In case of injury, the operating authority is
liable.
