2 General Safety And Accident Prevention Standards
2.1 Level Of Danger

connected to using the machine, adopting the steps necessary to make the equipment as safe as possible.
The
number of accidents remains very high however, especially due to incautious and awkward use of the
machine. It is therefore recommended to carefully read this manual and this section, regarding safety
standards, avoiding behaviour that is inappropriate or in contrast with the instructions contained in this
manual
