m Remaining hazards
The machine has been built using mod-
ern technology in accordance with rec-
ognized safety rules. Some remaining
hazards, however, may still exist.
• The splitting tool can cause injuries to
fingers and hands if the wood is incor-
rectly guided or supported.
• Thrown pieces can lead to injury if the
work piece is not correctly placed or
held.
• Injury through electric current if incorrect
electric connection leads are used.
• Even when all safety measures are tak-
en, some remaining hazards which are
not yet evident may still be present.
• Remaining hazards can be minimized by
following the safety instructions as well
as the instructions in the chapter Author-
ized use and in the entire operating man-
ual.
