Warning! This electric tool generates an electro-
magnetic field during operation. This field can impair
active or passive medical implants under certain
conditions. In order to prevent the risk of serious or
deadly injuries, we recommend that persons with
medical implants consult with their physician and the
manufacturer of the medical implant prior to operat-
ing the electric tool.
Residual risks
The wire rope hoist has been built in accordance with
the state of the art and recognised safety standards.
However, individual residual risks can arise during
operation. Furthermore, despite all precautions hav-
ing been met, some non-obvious residual risks may
still remain.
• Residual risks can be minimised if the „Safety Infor-
mation" and „Proper Use" as well as the operating
manual are completely followed.
