Safety
ATTENTION! THE FOLLOWING INDICATIONS ARE, BY THEMSELVES, NOT ENOUGH TO FULLY PROTECT AGAINST ALL THE
HAZARDS THAT COULD ARISE DURING DUST COLLECTOR OPERATION. THESE WILL HAVE TO BE INTEGRATED WITH COMMON
SENSE AND THE EXPERIENCE OF THE OPERATOR, BOTH OF WHICH ARE CRUCIAL FACTORS FOR PREVENTING ACCIDENTS.
EACH SECTION OF THIS MANUAL LISTS FURTHER SPECIFIC SAFETY WARNINGS FOR THE VARIOUS OPERATIONS.
MAINTENANCE JOBS MUST ALWAYS BE PERFORMED WITH THE POWER PLUG DETACHED FROM THE POWER SOURCE.

SAFETY WARNINGS

If the machine is used to vacuum toxic-harmful substances, the Longopac® bag must be emptied and the filters cleaned using adequate
individual protection devices, selected according to the type of substances to be vacuumed.
Do not vacuum flammable materials or substances which could cause explosions (fuels, solvents, etc.). To vacuum such materials, the ma-
chine must be built with Anti-explosion Motor and electric System and this must be requested by you explicitly.

Use of the machine without the supplied filters is not recommended.
If the filters are correctly fitted, the machine will not emit any dust.

from the power mains by removing the cable from the socket.
Only skilled persons should carry out repairs.
During use, protect the power supply cables from damage and avoid crushing or pulling the cables.
Periodically check the main power cable to ensure this is not damaged.
In the event of the cable being damaged, the machine must not be used.
In the event of the cable, plugs or couplings being replaced, make sure these are protected against water spray and check mechanical
strength.

The dust collector must not be operated in a corrosive or explosive environment.
Always make sure the dust collector is free of all foreign materials such as debris, oil, equipment and other objects that could affect operation
and cause injury to persons.
