Unless used properly, it can cause injury to operators or persons in close proximity to the
machine. In addition, improper use can cause damage to the machine or property around
the machine.
(2) Basic Safety Precautions
The user is to be instructed in all other generally applicable legal and other mandatory
regulations relevant to accident prevention and environmental protection in addition to the
operating instructions.
For safety reasons, long hair must be tied back or otherwise secured, garments must be close
fitting and no jewelry may be worn.

Work on the electrical system and equipment of the machine is only to be carried out by a
skilled electrician or by persons under the supervision and guidance of a skilled electrician
and in accordance with the rules and regulations of electrical engineering.
(3) Safety Instructions Governing Specific Operational Phases
Avoid any operation mode that might be unsafe.
All necessary precautions to ensure that the machine is only used being in a safe and
reliable state are to be taken. The machine is only to be operated if all protective and
safety devices, including removable safety devices, emergency shut-off equipment,
noise-protection elements and exhaust systems are in right place and fully functional.
The machine is to be checked for damage and defects at least once per work shift. Any
changes including the working behavior of the machine are to be reported to competent
persons immediately. If necessary, the machine is to be stopped and locked immediately.
In case of any malfunction the machine must be stopped and locked until the defect has been

-A7-
eliminated.
Generally make sure that nobody is at risk before starting up the machine.

(4) Warning of Electrical Dangers
Immediately remove power to the machine in case of trouble in the electrical system.
Replace a fuse with one with the same style and ratings; pay particular attention to matching
the specified current.
Any electrical work performed on the equipment must be conducted by a skilled electrician
or under the supervision of a skilled electrician. All work must be observed good electrical
engineering practice and follow safety rules and local wiring standards.
Inspect the electrical equipment of the machine at regular intervals. Tighten any loose
connections. Check wiring for scorch marks; replace scorched wiring and determine and
correct the reason for the overheating.
When working on live equipment, ensure that a second person is available to cut power in
case of an emergency. When appropriate, secure the working area with safety tape and a
warning sign. Use insulated tools for electrical work.
Before working on high-voltage assemblies, turn off the power supply. Carefully discharge
the supply cable and short-circuit any energy-storage components such as capacitors.

(5) Grounding Instructions Shall Include the Following:
This product must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces
the risk of electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord that has a grounding wire
and an appropriate grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is
properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, connect the ground wire to the
ground terminal of the plug. The wire with green insulation (with or without yellow stripes)
is the grounding wire.
Check with a qualified electrician or service person if the grounding instructions are not
clear or if in doubt about the proper grounding of the machine. Do not modify the plug
provided; if it will not fit the power outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.
This product is designed for use on a nominal 120 (230) volt AC circuit and has a grounding
plug.
DANGER!
Improper installation of the grounding can result in electrocution.
