General Safety Information

All personnel involved in installation, set-up, operation maintenance and repair of
the machine, must have read and understood the Operation Manual and in
particular the "Safety" section. The user is recommended to generate company-
internal instructions considering the professional qualifications of the personnel
employed in each case, and the receipt of the instruction/Operation Manual or the
participation at introduction/training should be acknowledged in writing in each case.
Safety-conscious Working
The machine must only be operated by trained and authorized personnel.
The scopes of competence for the different activities in the scope of operating the
machine must be clearly defined and observed, so that under the aspect of safety
no unclear questions of competence occur. This applies in particular to activities on
the electric equipment, which must only be performed by special experts.
For all activities concerning installation, set-up, start-up, operation, modifications of
conditions and methods of operation, maintenance, inspection and repair, the
switch-off procedures that may be provided in the Operation Manual must be
observed.
