INTRODUCTION
Dear Customer,
thank you for choosing one of our products. We hope that you will be completely satisfied with this machine
and that it fully meets your expectations. This manual has been compiled in order to provide you with all
the information you need to get acquainted with the machine and use it safely and efficiently. Don't forget
that it is an integral part of the machine, so keep it handy so that it can be consulted when necessary, and
pass it on to a further user if you resell or loan the machine.
Your new machine has been designed and manufactured in pursuance with current regulations, and is
safe and reliable if used in compliance with the instructions provided in this manual (proper use). Using the
machine in any other way, or non-compliance with the safety specifications relative to use, maintenance
and repair is considered "improper use" which will invalidate the warranty, relieve the manufacturer from
all liabilities, and the user will consequently be liable for all and any damage or injury to himself or others.
For this electric tool, the company provides the end user - independently from the retailer's obligations
resulting from the purchasing contract - with the following warranties:
The warranty period is 24 months beginning from the hand-over of the device which has to be proved by
the original purchasing document. For commercial use and use for rent, the warranty period is reduced
to 12 months. Wearing parts and defects caused by the use of not fitting accessories, repair with parts
that are no original parts of the manufacturer, use of force, strokes and breaking as well as mischievous
overloading of the motor are excluded from this warranty. Warranty replacement does only include de-
fective parts, not complete devices. Warranty repair shall exclusively be carried out by authorized service
partners or by the company's customer service. In the case of any intervention of not authorized personnel,
the warranty will be held void.
All postage or delivery costs as well as any other subsequent expenses will be borne by the customer.
Since we regular improve our products, you may find slight differences between your machine and the de-
scriptions contained in this manual. Modifications can be made to the machine without notice and without
the obligation to update the manual, although the essential safety and function characteristics will remain
unaltered. In case of any doubts, please contact your dealer. And now enjoy your work!
