Safety instructions
Due to their design and construction, TASKI machines comply with health and
safety requirements of the EC guidelines and therefore carry the CE sign. Important! Switch the machine off when you:
• e.g. carry out cleaning or maintenance work, or convert the machine to
another function
• store it in a suitable room to avoid any unauthorised use of the unit
• leave it standing without supervision
You should also pull the plug out of the mains socket.
Store the machine in a dry, dust-free room with a corrosion-free atmosphere.
The temperature must not fall below +10 °C or exceed +35 °C. Low
temperatures, damp and dust can significantly reduce the service life of the
electrical components.
ATTENTION!
Before first start-up, it is essential that you
read the instructions of use and the safety
notes carefully.
Keep the instructions of use in an easily
accessible place so that they can be consulted
at any time.
Non-observance of this information can endanger people and / or
cause servere damage!
Non-observance of this information can lead to malfunctions and
property damage!
Indicates important information regarding the efficient use, non-
observance of which could lead to malfunctions!
Indicates working steps that must be carried out one after the
other.
Persons (including children) who are not able to use this machine
safely due to their physical, sensory or mental capabilities or their
lack of experience or knowledge may not operate this machine
without supervision or instruction by a person responsible for their
safety!
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with
the appliance.
Do not use the machine in rooms where explosive and flammable
substances (e.g. petrol, thinners, heating oil, solvents, etc.) are
stored or processed. The electrical or mechanical components of
the machine could lead to ignition of these materials.
Do not use this machine to vacuum toxic, poisonous, caustic or
irritating substances (e.g. acids, alkalis, hazardous dusts, etc.).
The filter system will not adequately retain these kinds of
materials. A possible impairment of the health of the user and of
third parties cannot be excluded.
While operating the machine, take note of the surrounding area
and pay particular attention to third parties and children!
In case of damage to parts that could affect safety, such as the
tool cover, power supply cord or covers that prevent access to
current-carrying parts, the operation of the machine must be
stopped immediately!
Regularly check the power supply cord for tearing or aging, and
do not put the machine into operation if it is not in a error-free
condition!
