5. Operator safety warnings
ELIET cannot anticipate every situation in which a risk or danger can occur. The warning symbols
in this operating manual and the labels on the machine are therefore not comprehensive. Al-
though minimal, a residual risk will always be present. If while operating the machine you apply a
working method, operation or technique that is not explicitly recommended by ELIET, make sure
that it does not represent a danger for bystanders.
A number of symbols (“For your information”, “Caution”, “Warning”) are used in this operating
manual to provide additional information and to highlight dangers.
5.1 For your information
For your information:
This symbol is used to draw your attention to specific information and/or ac-
tions, or to indicate where you can find additional information relating to the
subject.
5.2 Caution
Caution:
This symbol suggests safe practices. The purpose is to prevent incorrect opera-
tion that could result in personal injury or damage to the machine.
5.3 Warning
Warning:
This symbol warns you about extreme danger that you must take notice of in
those specific circumstances. So for the sake of your own safety, remain alert at
all times.
These safety messages can only warn and not remove the danger. Both the use of common sense
and proper observation of the guidelines in this manual are essential to prevent accidents.

7. Safety instructions
7.1 Safety messages
The safety messages are clearly indicated on the machine with stickers or relief pictograms. Take
good notice of the symbols and warning messages displayed.
This sticker groups a number of key safety messages and infor-
mation about the machine and the manufacturer:
Some safety instructions are symbolised by icons:
1. Before operating the machine the manual should be read and
understood.
2. Suitable safety clothing (gloves, safety goggles, ear defend-
ers) should be worn when operating the machine.
3. There is a real risk of severe injuries including permanent
damage to the hands. Never place your hands near the blade
while it is still operating.
5. There is a real risk of severe injuries with permanent damage
to the eyes or face as a result of flying debris.
This sticker notifies the operator that the engine must be
turned off and the spark plug cap removed before starting
maintenance on the machine.
This sticker reminds the user that bystanders should observe a
minimum distance from the machine.
