These operating instructions are intended to simplify
familiarisation with the strapping tool and the pos-
sibilities of application for the intended purpose. The
operating instructions contain important information
concerning the safe, proper and efficient use of the
strapping tool. Observation of the information will help
to avoid danger, reduce repairs and stoppages and
increase the reliability and service life of the strapping
tool.

In addition to the operating instructions and the regu-
lations for accident prevention effective in the country
of use and place of application, the recognised tech-
nical regulations for safety and proper working must
also be observed.
