In order to prevent problems relating to operation, supply and maintenance, the machine is not to be positioned in any recesses or similar difficult posi- tions.

The machine must be placed on a completely level surface, that is both dry and sufficiently stable and at a height of 80 cm from the ground.

Position the machine and connect the plug to the power outlet.
