Risk of explosion when cleaning with compressed air
If you clean the machine with compressed air, plastic components may become statically
charged and ignite a potentially explosive atmosphere; an explosion can occur. This can
result in death, serious injury or material damage.
Do not use compressed air to clean plastic parts in an explosive atmosphere. When cleaning
the machine, make sure that the air in the vicinity of the motor is free of gas and dust.
