For our part, we want to welcome you to the

We hope your new Yetter products will help you

information of a supplementary nature.

The word IMPORTANT is used in the text when
immediate damage will occur to the machine due

to improper technique or operation. Important will
apply to the same information as specified by
note only of an immediate and urgent nature.

It is the responsibility of the user to read the
operator’s manual and comply with the safe and
correct operating procedure and to lubricate and
maintain the product according to the
maintenance schedule in the operator’s manual.

The user is responsible for inspecting his
machine and for having parts repaired or
replaced when continued use of the product
would cause damage or excessive wear to the
other parts.

machine to the Yetter dealer who sold him the
