Operator safety is the most important aspect of the product design. Moreover, the operating
instructions are intended to ensure LUKAS products are used safely.
The generally applicable legal and other binding regulations pertaining to the prevention of
accidents and protection of the environment apply and are to be complied with in addition to
the operating instructions.
The equipment may only be operated by persons with appropriate training in the safety
aspects of such equipment – otherwise, there is a danger of injury occurring.

We further recommend that a qualified instructor train you in the use of the product.
