This Operating Manual is an essential component of the machine. The
operating company must ensure that operating personnel are informed
about these guidelines.
The operating company must supplement the Operating Manual with
operating instructions based on existing national regulations for
accident prevention and for the protection of the environment,
including information regarding supervisory and reporting duties that
take account of company-related specifics, e.g. with reference to work
organisation, work procedures and the personnel employed.
In addition to the obligatory regulations for accident prevention and
industrial safety that apply both in the country of use and at the place
of use, accepted professional rules for working safely and competently
must also be observed.

personal protective gear as appropriate to the local conditions.
First aid facilities (first aid kit, etc.) must be kept within reach!
The operating company/user of the machine must not make any

bearing components.
Any replacement and wearing parts that are used must correspond to
the technical requirements stipulated by GEDA. This is ensured with
original replacement parts.
Only employ qualified and/or trained personnel for the tasks
described in this manual.
The operating company clearly defines the responsibilities of the
personnel for operation/installation/maintenance.
