instructions are observed.
Observing these instructions, and taking proper care, will reduce
the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment.
Failure to observe the safety precautions can lead to injury to
the operator or damage to property.
Risk from electricity, by using non-standard electrical
connections.
Touching live parts of opened electrical components.
Risk of fire and slipping by leaking hydraulic fluid.
In addition, in spite of all the precautionary measures taken, non-

Electrical safety

Electrical connections must conform to IEC 60245 (H 07
RN-F) with a cable cross-section of at least
⇒ 1.5 mm² for a maximum cable length of up to 10 m
Never use the machine with a power supply cable of over 10
m in length. Longer power supply cables will cause a drop in
voltage. The motor will not be able to provide its maximum
performance and the operation of the machine will be
impaired.
When laying the connecting attachments, be sure that they
do get crushed or bent, and that the plug-and-socket
connection does not get wet.
Do not use the cable for purposes for which it is not meant.
Protect the cable against heat, oil and sharp edges. Do not
use the cable to pull the plug from the socket.
