Transport
1. The product may be very heavy. Therefore, the product must be handled with
care. In some cases, the user may require a suitable means of lifting or
moving the product (e.g. with a lift-truck) to avoid back or other physical
injuries.
2. Handles on the products are designed exclusively to enable personnel to
transport the product. It is therefore not permissible to use handles to fasten
the product to or on transport equipment such as cranes, fork lifts, wagons,
etc. The user is responsible for securely fastening the products to or on the
means of transport or lifting. Observe the safety regulations of the
manufacturer of the means of transport or lifting. Noncompliance can result in
personal injury or material damage.
3. If you use the product in a vehicle, it is the sole responsibility of the driver to
drive the vehicle safely and properly. The manufacturer assumes no
responsibility for accidents or collisions. Never use the product in a moving
vehicle if doing so could distract the driver of the vehicle. Adequately secure
the product in the vehicle to prevent injuries or other damage in the event of
an accident.

disposed of with unsorted municipal waste, but must be collected separately. It
