Safety and prevention
2.1
Introduction
It is necessary, however, to bear in mind that the imprudent and
clumsy use of the gas train may lead to situations of death risk for
the user or third parties, as well as the damaging of the burner or
other items. Inattention, thoughtlessness and excessive confi-
dence often cause accidents; the same applies to tiredness and
sleepiness.
It is a good idea to remember the following:
the gas train must only be used as expressly described. Any
other use should be considered improper and therefore dan-
gerous.
Modification of the gas train to alter its performance and des-
tinations is not allowed.
2.2
Personnel training
The user is the person, the body or the company that has pur-
chased the gas train and that intends to use it for the purposes
for which it was designed. They are responsible for the gas train
and for training those who will operate it.
The user:
undertakes to entrust the gas train only to personnel who are
qualified and trained to use it;
undertakes to inform his personnel in a suitable way about
the application and observance of the safety instructions.
With that aim, he undertakes to ensure that everyone knows
the use and safety instructions for his own duties;
Personnel must follow all the danger and caution indications
shown on the gas train.
Personnel must not carry out, on their own initiative, opera-
tions or interventions that are not within their province.
Personnel are obliged to inform their superiors of every
problem or dangerous situation that may arise.
The assembly of parts of other makes, or any modifications,
can alter the characteristics of the machine and hence com-
promise operating safety. The manufacturing company
therefore accepts no responsibility whatsoever for any which
may result from the use of non-original parts.

WARNING
