Basic safety instructions
for joint cutters
3.2.1 Designated use, predictable misuse
3.2.1.1 The joint cutter CF•22 E, in the following referred
to as machine, is exclusively to be used as walk-behind
hand-guided oor cutting machine for cutting by means
of diamond saw blades in wet cutting operation of rmly
installed components made of asphalt, concrete and
abrasive construction material as used e.g. in roadwork,
hall oors and runways! Using the machine for purpo-
ses other than those mentioned above is considered
contrary to its designated use; in particular the use of
the machine with cutting tools other than those appro-
ved by the manufacturer/distributor is prohibited. The
manufacturer/distributor cannot be held liable for any
damage resulting from such use. The risk of such misuse
lies entirely with the user.
3.2.1.2 The machine is not approved for other use than the
one specied herein; this constitutes improper use.
3.2.1.3 Operating the machine within the limits of its
designated use also involves observing the instructions
set out in this operating manual and complying with the
inspection and maintenance directives.
3.2.1.4 The machine has been designed in accordance with
state-of-the-art standards and recognized safety rules.
Nevertheless, its use may constitute a risk to life and limb
of the user or of third parties, or cause damage to the
machine or other material property.
3.2.1.5 The machine must only be used in technically
perfect condition in accordance with its designated use,
the instructions set out in the operating manual and
the relevant national safety regulations, and only by
safety-conscious persons who are fully aware of the risks
involved in operating the machine. Any functional disor-
ders, especially those aecting the safety of the machine,
must therefore be rectied immediately.
3.2.2 Organisational measures
3.2.2.1 This operational manual must always be kept at
the hand at the machine operating site and must be
accessible to operating personnel at all times!
3.2.2.2 In addition to the operating manual, generally
applicable legal and other binding rules and regulations
for accident prevention and environmental protection
must also be observed! Such duties can, for example,

regulations!
3.2.2.3 Additionally this operating manual with instruc-

taking special plant situations should be observed, e.g.
with regard to work organisation, working procedures,
personnel used, ect.
3.2.2.4 The personnel charged with activities at/on the
machine must have read th

3.2.2.5 Safety and danger-conscious working of the
personnel under observance of the operating manual
must be checked at least occasionally!
3.2.2.6 The personnel must tie back long hair and may not

safety equipment must be used (e.g. protective goggles,
hearing protection, safety shoes and safety clothing)!
Corresponding to working conditions, the wearing of
further personal safety equipment (protective clothing)
may be necessary! The accident prevention regulations
must be observed at all times!
3.2.2.8 All safety- and danger warnings at, in and on the
machine must be observed and must always be kept in
proper, legible condition!
3.2.2.9 In case of safety-relevant changes to the machine or

also applies to the installation and adjustment of safety
equipment, and to welding and drilling on load-bearing
parts!
3.2.2.12 Replace defective or damaged machine parts
immediately! Only use original spare parts!
3.2.2.13
Spare parts and tools must correspond to the
