3.1 Intended use
The machine has been built in accordance with state-of-the-art standards and the recognized safety
rules. Nevertheless, its use may constitute a risk to life and limb of the user or of third parties, or cause
damage to the machine and to other material property.
The machine must only be used in technical perfect condition in accordance with its designated use
and the instructions set out in the operating manual, and only by safety-conscious persons who are
fully aware of the risks involved in operating the machine. Any functional disorders, especially those
affecting the safety of the machine, should therefore be rectified immediately!
The machine is designed exclusively for cutting in concrete, reinforced concrete, natural stone, cast
stone and brickwork. Using the machine for purposes other than mentioned above (such as cutting in
wood and so on) is considered contrary to its designated use. The GÖLZ
®
GmbH cannot be held liable
for any damage resulting from such use. The risk of such misuse lies entirely with the user.
Only use gear drives and motors, which are provided by GÖLZ
®
GmbH. Also attend those operating
manuals.
Operating the machine within the limits of its designated use also involves observing the instructions
set out in the operating manual and complying with the inspection and maintenance directives
3.2 Operating range
The operating range of the unit can be extended due its wide range of accessories allowing easy
retrofitting which can be carried out by the operating personnel themselves.
Do not modify, add components to or retrofit the unit in a way which could affect its safety and do not
use non-official accessories! This is not allowed without prior approval of GÖLZ
®
GmbH!
