2.4 Mechanical dangers
– In order to avoid the risk of slipping on wet floors when operating the warewasher, prevent dirt from accumulating on
the floor and wear non-slip footwear.
– In order to avoid cutting injuries on sharp metal edges, wear protective gloves for assembly and repair work.
– Rusting foreign bodies inside the warewasher can cause even “rust-free stainless steel” to corrode. Use only undam-
aged wire grate baskets, rust-free wash items and suitable cleaning utensils to ensure that water pipes are protected
from rust.
– Do not sit or stand on the open door of the warewasher, to prevent it from tipping over.
– In the case of installation and operation in vehicles, follow the additional requirements for unstable surfaces.
2.5 Electrical dangers
– The connection to the electrical mains supply may be made only by a specialist company registered within the elec-
trical trade and approved by the energy supplier.
– Work on the electrical system, installation and maintenance work and repairs may be carried out only by qualified
specialists. The electrical engineering safety rules must be observed to avoid electrical accidents:
– Disconnect all power supply points.
– Secure the machine to prevent it from being switched on again.
– Check that there is no voltage present.
– Earth and short circuit.
– Cover or cordon off neighbouring parts that are live.
– Do not open any machine covers or machine parts if doing so requires tools. There is a danger of electric shock.
– The electrical safety of this machine is guaranteed only if it is connected to a correctly installed protective circuit.
Winterhalter cannot be held responsible for damage caused by a missing or broken protective conductor (e.g. electric
shock).
– If the mains cable is damaged, it must be replaced by Winterhalter, its customer service team or another qualified per-
son to prevent danger. The mains cable must be a H07RN-F type or equivalent.
– Machines delivered from the factory fitted with a mains cable and safety plug may be connected only to an individually
protected safety socket. Do not use extension cables or multi-socket adapters.
– Touching live components can lead to death by electric shock. In the event of a defect or damage to an electrical
component / cable or its insulation, switch off the power supply immediately and arrange for its repair by a specialist.
2.6 Thermal dangers
– Contact with hot components and surfaces can cause burns.
– Before installation and maintenance work and repairs, allow the warewasher and surfaces to cool down.
– Wear protective clothing and gloves.
– When fitting additional devices, lay electrical cables and dosing hoses a sufficient distance away from hot compon-
ents to prevent damage.
– Do not operate the warewasher below 0°C to avoid damage to the hoses, tank and boiler and prevent functional dam-
age.
2.7 Handling of chemicals
Contact of chemicals with the skin or eyes can lead to severe burns, eye damage and poisoning.
– In the event of contact with the eyes or skin, wash thoroughly with tap water and seek medical attention if necessary.
– Never drink chemicals or wash water or transfer them to other storage containers.
– Wear protective clothing, protective gloves and protective goggles when working with chemicals.
– Observe the danger and safety notes on the canister and safety data sheet.
