Reading the instruction
Manual and following it should seem to be in-
convenient and superfluous as it is not
enough to hear from others and to realize that a
machine is good, to buy it and to believe that now
everything should work by itself. The person in
question would not only harm himself but also
make the mistake of blaming the machine for pos-
sible failures instead of himself. In order to ensure
success one should enter the mind of a thing,
make himself familiar with every part of the ma-
chine and get acquainted with how it's handled.
Only in this way could you be satisfied both with
the machine and with yourself. This goal is the
purpose of this instruction manual.

General safety instructions
2.2 Representation of safety symbols
Safety instructions are indicated by the triangular safety symbol and
the highlighted signal word. The signal word (DANGER, WARNING,
CAUTION) describes the gravity of the risk and has the following sig-
nificance:
DANGER
Indicates an immediate high risk which will result in death or
serious physical injury (loss of body parts or long term damage)
if not avoided.
If the instructions are not followed, then this will result in imme-
diate death or serious physical injury.
WARNING
Indicates a medium risk, which could result in death or (serious)
physical injury if not avoided.
If the instructions are not followed, then this may result in death
or serious physical injury.
CAUTION
Indicates a low risk which could cause minor or medium level
physical injury or damage to property if not avoided.
IMPORTANT
Indicates an obligation to special behaviour or an activity re-
quired for proper machine handling.
Non-compliance with these instructions can cause faults on the
machine or disturbance to the environment.
NOTE
Indicates handling tips and particularly useful information.
These instructions will help you to use all the functions of your
machine in the best way possible.
