Disposal of waste electrical and electronic equipment

Professional disposal of this machine avoids negative effects on human health and
the environment, helps with the targeted treatment of pollutants and makes it
possible to recycle valuable raw materials.
For customers in EU countries
This machine is not affected by the European directive for old electrical and
electronic equipment (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE)). The
WEEE directive provides the framework for an EU-wide treatment of old electrical
equipment.
This unit is provided as a professional electrical tool exclusively for commercial use
(a so-called B2B device according to the WEEE directive). Unlike equipment
mostly used in private households (so-called B2C devices), this machine may
therefore not be disposed of in some EU countries, such as in Germany, at the
collection points of public waste management organizations (e.g. municipal
collection stations). If there are any doubts, information regarding the different
methods of disposal for B2B electronic devices for each country can be obtained
from the sales location, so that the disposal takes place in accordance with the
valid statutory provisions.
For customers in other countries
It is recommended that you do not dispose of the machine in normal household
waste but rather in a separate, environmentally friendly collection facility. National
laws also may, under certain circumstances, prescribe the separate disposal of
electrical and electronic products. Correct disposal of this machine in accordance
with current national guidelines must be assured.
