MODIFICATIONS AND IMPROVEMENTS
Our company policy is based on the continuous improvement
of our products. We therefore reserve the right to apply
modifications and improvements whenever we believe these
are necessary, without having to upgrade the machines
previously sold.
Accident-prevention is also your responsibility.
No accident-prevention plan can be effective without the total
co-operation of the person directly responsible for machine
operation.
Most accidents that occur in a company, during work or transport
are caused by failure to observe the basic rules concerning
safety.
A careful and prudent user is the best guarantee against
accidents and will prove to be much more effective than even
the strictest accident-prevention plan.
During work, pay attention to the persons standing in the area
to clean, especially children.
SERIAL NUMBER – CE MARKING
Make sure the machine is fitted with a plate featuring the serial
number and the CE mark. It is affixed in the position shown in
