electrical wiring should be inspected by a
qualified electrician. The manufacturer
cannot be held liable for the consequences
of an inadequate earthing system (e.g.
electric shock).
Do not damage, remove or bypass the
safety features, fixtures and control
elements of this machine.
Do not use a machine with damaged
controls or cables. These must be
repaired before it is used again.
Any removable outer panels must be
back in place, and all moving or
electrical parts shielded before the machine
is switched on.
