instructions stated here as well as any local accident
prevention regulations and general safety regulations.
Before beginning any work on the machine, ensure that
the manual, in particular the chapter entitled “Safety”
and the respective safety guidelines, has been read in its
entirety and fully understood. What has been read must
be understood. The operating manual is an integral part
of the machine. It must therefore be kept in the direct vi-
cinity of the machine and be accessible at all times. The
operating manual must always accompany the machine.
1.3 Copyright

gnated solely for those persons who work on or with the

other depictions are protected by copyright and other
commercial laws. Any unauthorised use is prohibited.
This manual, in its entirety or parts thereof, may not be
transferred to third parties or copied in any way or form
and its contents may not be used or otherwise communi-
cated without the express written consent of the manuf-
acturer. Violation of these terms may result in prosecution
and may incur damages, reserving the right to further

The contents and instructions in this manual were
compiled in consideration of current regulations and
state-of-the-art technology as well as based on our know-
how and experience acquired over many years. This
manual must be read carefully before commencing any
work on or with this machine! The manufacturer shall not
be liable for damage and/or faults resulting from the dis-
regard of instructions in the manual. The text and images
do not necessarily represent the delivery contents.
The images and graphics are not depicted on a 1:1
scale. The product that has been delivered, may have
custom-built specifications, add-on options or recent
technical modifications and may therefore deviate from
the descriptions, instructions and images contained in
the manual. Should any questions arise, please contact
the manufacturer. We reserve the right to make technical
modifications to the product in order to further improve

turer.
1.7 Disposal
Should the machine be disposed of at the end of its
operating life, all of the components need to be separa-
ted according to material class, to enable recycling or
scrapping. The entire structure is made of steel and can
therefore be easily separated. Furthermore, this material
is easy to dispose of and does not constitute a burden
on the environment or the safety of personnel. Please
observe the international regulations and the standards
prevailing in the country of destination, in addition to all
relevant environmental protection standards.
General

2 Safety
At the time of its development and production, the machi-
ne was built in accordance with prevailing technological
regulations and therefore conforms to industry safety
standards.
However, hazards may arise should the machine be
operated by untrained personnel, used improperly or em-
ployed for purposes other than those it was designed for.
The chapter entitled “Safety” offers an overview of all
the important safety considerations necessary to optimise
safety and ensure the safe and trouble-free operation of
the machine.
To further minimise risks, the other chapters of this ma-
nual contain specific safety instructions, all marked with
symbols. Additional to the various instructions, there are
a number of pictograms, signs and labels affixed to the
machine that must also be paid attention to. These must
be kept visible and must not be removed.
2.1 Intended use
2.2 Contents of the operating manual
All those appointed to work on or with the machine must
have fully read and understood the manual before com-
mencing any work. This requirement must be met even
if the appointed person is familiar with the operation of
such a machine or a similar one, or has been trained by
the manufacturer.
Knowledge about the contents of this manual is a prere-
quisite for protecting personnel from hazards and avoi-
ding mistakes so that the machine may be operated in
a safe and trouble free manner. It is recommended that
the operator requests proof from the personnel that the
contents of the manual have been read and understood.
2.3 Making changes and modifications to the machine
In order to minimise risks and to ensure optimal perfor-
mance, it is strictly prohibited to alter, retrofit or modify
the machine in any way without the express consent of
the manufacturer.
All the pictograms, signs and labels affixed to the
machine must be kept visible, readable and may not be
removed. Pictograms, signs and labels that have become
damaged or unreadable must be replaced promptly.
Safety
Attention! Any use, additional to the machine‘s intended purpose shall be considered improper and is therefo-
re not permitted. All claims regarding damage resulting from improper use that are made against the manu-
facturer and its authorised representatives will be rejected. The operator is solely liable for any damage that
results from improper use of the machine.
The machine described in this manual is intended solely
for:
Machine equipment trolley, stacking trolley or additional
work space

larities with the machine that might compromise safety to
the operator.

4 Transport, packaging and storage
4.1 Safety instructions
4.2 Transport inspection
Upon arrival, inspect the shipment to ensure that it is
complete and has not suffered any damage.
If any transport damage is visible, do not accept the deli-
very or only accept it with reservation. Record the scope
of the damage on the transport documents/delivery note.
Initiate the complaint process.
For all defects that are not discovered upon delivery, be
sure to report them as soon as they are recognised as
damage claims must be filed within a certain period, as
granted by law.
4.3 Packaging
If no agreement has been made with the supplier to take back the packaging materials, help to protect the environ-
ment by reusing the materials or separating them according to type and size for recycling.
Attention! Dispose of the packaging materials in an environmentally friendly way and always in accordance
with local waste disposal regulations. If applicable, contract a recycling company to dispose of the packaging
materials.
Warning! Risk of injury!
There is a risk of injury as a result of falling parts while transporting, loading or unloading the machine.
Attention! Risk of material damage!
The machine can be damaged or destroyed if it is subjected to improper handling during transport.
Transport, packaging and storage
For this reason the following safety instructions must be observed:
• Never lift loads over a person.
• Always move the machine with the utmost of care and
caution.
• Only use suitable lifting accessories and hoisting
devices that have a sufficient load-carrying capacity.
• The machine should never be lifted by its protruding
parts (e.g. working table).
• Keep in mind the machine’s centre of gravity when
transporting it (risk of tipping).
• Take measures to prevent the machine from slipping
sideways.
• Ropes, belts or other hoisting devices must be equip-
ped with safety hooks.
• Do not use torn or worn ropes.
• Do not use knotted ropes or belts.
• Ensure that ropes and belts do not lie against sharp
edges.
• Transport the machine as carefully as possible. This
prevents damage from the transport.
• Avoid mechanical vibration. When transporting
the machine overseas, ensure that the packaging is
airtight and that a desiccant is added to protect the
metal parts against corrosion.
Note: Help protect the environment!
Packaging materials are valuable raw materials and in many cases they can be used again, reprocessed or
recycled.
