2.4.4 Other dangers

Should dangers or potential dangers that are not directly related to the clipping of the animals
occur during operation, we would ask you to inform us about these. This also applies to

3.1 Controls and operating notes

There are dangers inherent in the improper use of electrical equipment, especially stock
breeding equipment! You should therefore always observe the following accident prevention
measures before putting the machine into operation:
• The mains voltage must be the same as that stated on the nameplate. The machine may
only be connected to an AC supply.
• Avoid all contact with the moving clipper blades.
• Even when the machine is switched off, do not handle the area of the clipper blades as
long as the machine is connected to a power source. Always disconnect the power supply
before working on the clipper blade / clipper head.
• Avoid touching a machine that is in contact with liquids. Never clip wet animals. Any
liquid that gets into the machine will lower the electrical insulation. There will then be a
danger of electric shock or a short circuit. Only clean the machine dry, using a brush and
the supplied cleaning brush.
