NOTE
Some of the illustrations contained in this
manual were derived from photos of pro-
totypes: the standard production machines
may differ in some details.
These instructions are for the attention of
personnel with basic mechanical skills. We
have therefore condensed the descriptions
of each operation by omitting detailed
instructions regarding, for example, how to
loosen or tighten the fixing devices on the
machine. Do not attempt to perform opera-
tions unless properly qualified and with
suitable experience. If in need of assistance,
call an authorised assistance centre.
