In case of machine malfunctions, ensure that these 
are not due to lack of maintenance. Otherwise, 
request assistance from the authorised personnel or 
from an authorised Service Center.
In case of part replacement, order ORIGINAL spare 
parts from an authorised Dealer or Retailer.
To ensure the proper and safe operation of the 
machine, have the scheduled maintenance, detailed 
in the related chapter of this Manual, performed by 
the authorised personnel or an authorised Service 
Center.
The machine must be disposed of properly, because 
of the presence of toxic-harmful materials (batteries, 
oils, plastics, etc.), which are subject to standards 
that require disposal in special centres (see the 
“Scrapping” chapter).
If the machine is used according to the instructions, 
the vibrations do not cause dangerous situations. The 
machine vibration level is less than 2.5 m/s
2
 (EN 
1032-96/A1-98).
Do not tilt the machine more than 30° from its 
horizontal position, or the highly corrosive acid could 
leak out of the batteries. When the machine is to be 
tilted for maintenance operations, remove the 
batteries.

and the machine were not damaged during transportation.
In case of visible damages, keep the packing and have it
