  • Page 2 Quality for Professionals It should NOT be an inconvenience or a luxury to read and comply with the operating instructions; you cannot simply experience from others that something is a good product, then make the purchase and assume everything will be self explanatory. Those who go down this route not only inflict damage on their own property, but make the mistake of attributing the cause of any failure to the machine, and not to themselves.
