A. Level of technician training
All maintenance, disassembly and repair operations must be carried out by expert
maintenance mechanics who are familiar with all the safety and accident prevention
regulations and have read the procedures described in this manual
B. Safety principles to be implemented
All the machines have been built in compliance with the strictest European standards on

1. check:
• correct operation of the safety microswitches;
• that none of the safety guards or devices have been removed;
• that none of the safety/warning decals have become illegible/damaged (these are
considered integral parts of the safety devices).

• restore correct operation of any safety devices which may have been removed or
tampered with;
• reinstall any ineffective, damaged and/or missing safeguards;
• replace any illegible decals;
• avoid carrying out any work or modification to the machine or engine which changes
its operating performance or could lead to use of the machine which is improper or in
any case different to the use it was designed and homologated to carry out;
• inform the Customer that any failure to observe the aforementioned points will
automatically nullify the warranty and exonerate the manufacturer from all liability.
