2. SAFETY SECTION
2.1 Safety Information
As per Italian Legislative Decree 81/08 and subsequent modifications, the Safety
Manager must train and inform workers about the risks involved with using the
vacuum cleaner so that they may be able to avoid injury to themselves and others.
The use of device by people (including children) with limited physical and mental capacities or lacking in
experience and knowledge is strictly forbidden, unless they are supervised by a person who is
experienced in the use and safe handling of the device.
Children must be supervised to make sure they will not play with the device.
Failure to comply norms, laws or basic safety precautions, may cause accidents during operation,
maintenance and repair of the vacuum cleaner. Accidents can frequently be avoided by recognising
potentially hazardous situations before they occur. Adequate training is crucial to this end.
DEPURECO shall not be held liable for accidents or damage due to the improper use of the vacuum by
untrained personnel or to failure to comply, even partially, with the occupational safety standards and
intervention procedures contained in this manual.
Safety warnings and precautions are indicated in this manual as well as on the product itself.

consequences for themselves and other people.
DEPURECO designs and manufactures its equipment and accessories with care, identifying and
compensating possible risks related to their use. In the event of equipment, procedures, work methods
or techniques not expressly provided for by DEPURECO being used, it is crucial to ensure beforehand
that there are no dangers for oneself and the others. Nevertheless, DEPURECO shall not be held liable.

2.2 Safety recommendations
WARNING!
The following information is essential in view of preventing all hazards that may occur
while the vacuum cleaner is running. However, they cannot replace the expertise and
common sense of operators as an overall framework for the prevention of accidents.
Structural damage, alterations or improper repairs can modify the protective capacity
of the vacuum, thereby nullifying this certification and releasing DEPURECO from any
liability.
Each section lists further safety measures specific to the various functions.
WARNING!
Setting to work – connection to the power supply
• Make sure there is no evident sign of damage to the vacuum cleaner before starting work.
• Before plugging the vacuum cleaner into the electrical mains, make sure the voltage rating
indicated on the data plate corresponds to that of the electrical mains.
• Plug the vacuum cleaner into a socket with a correctly installed ground contact/connection.
Make sure that the vacuum cleaner is turned off.
• The plugs and connectors of the connection cables must be protected against splashes of
water.
• Check that the vacuum cleaner is properly connected to the electrical mains.
• Use the vacuum cleaner only when the cables that connect to the electrical mains are in
perfect condition (damaged cables could lead to electric shocks!).
• Regularly check there are no signs of damage, excessive wear, cracks or ageing on the
electric cable.
WARNING!
When the vacuum cleaner is operating, do not:
• Crush, pull, damage or tread on the cable that connects to the electrical mains.
• Only disconnect the cable from the electrical mains by removing the plug (do not pull the
cable).
• Only replace the electric power cable with one of the same type as the original: H07 RN - F.
The same rule applies if an extension is used.
