People with health problems or under the influence of medication,
drugs, alcohol or exhaustion must not operate this device.
The ANALYSETTE 18 may only be operated by authorised persons and
serviced or repaired by trained specialists. All commissioning, maintenance and repair work may only be carried out by technically qualified
personnel. Qualified personnel are persons who, because of their education, experience and training as well as their knowledge of relevant
standards, regulations, accident prevention guidelines and operating
conditions, are authorised by those responsible for the safety of the
machine to carry out the required work and are able to recognize and
avoid possible hazards as defined for skilled workers in IEC 364.
In order to prevent hazards to users, follow the instructions in this
manual.
Malfunctions that impair the safety of persons, the ANALYSETTE 18 or
other material property must be rectified immediately. The following
information serves both the personal safety of operating personnel as
well as the safety of the products described and any devices connected
to them: All maintenance and repair work may only be performed by
technically qualified personnel.

Obligations of the operator
2.3
Safety information and use
The ANALYSETTE 18 uses a three-dimensional sieving action for test
sieves up to 450 mm in diameter. It has a self-adjusting amplitude. The
whole system is driven by an electromagnetic drive. The device features
a digital controller. Ten sieving parameter sets can be stored. As
standard, it is delivered with a separate control device, which is
equipped with a waterproof plug connection.
Before using the ANALYSETTE 18, this manual is to be carefully read and
understood. The use of the ANALYSETTE 18 requires technical knowledge; only commercial use is permitted.
The operating personnel must be familiar with the content of the operating manual. For this reason, it is very important that these persons
actually receive the present operating manual. Ensure that the operating
manual is always near the device.
The ANALYSETTE 18 may exclusively be used within the scope of applications set down in this manual and within the framework of guidelines
put forth in this manual. In case of non-compliance or improper use, the
customer assumes full liability for the functional capability of the ANALYSETTE 18 and for any damage or injury arising from failure to fulfil this
obligation.
By using the ANALYSETTE 18 the customer agrees with this and recognizes that defects, malfunctions or errors cannot be complete excluded.
To prevent risk of damage to persons or property or of other direct or
indirect damage, resulting from this or other causes, the customer must
implement sufficient and comprehensive safety measures for working
with the ANALYSETTE 18.
Neither compliance with this manual nor the conditions and methods
used during installation, operation, use and maintenance of the ANALYSETTE 18 can be monitored by Fritsch GmbH. Improper execution of the
installation can result in property damage and thus endanger persons.
Therefore, we assume absolutely no responsibility or liability for loss,
damage or costs that result from errors at installation, improper operation or improper use or improper maintenance or are in any way connected to these.
The applicable accident prevention guidelines must be complied with.
Generally applicable legal and other obligatory regulations regarding
environmental protection must be observed.
