Safety Directions 7

DANGER

Risk of electrocution

Because of the risk of electrocution, it is dangerous to use poles, levelling staffs and extensions

in the vicinity of electrical installations such as power cables or electrical railways.

Precautions:

▶Keep at a safe distance from electrical installations. If it is essential to work in this environ-

ment, first contact the safety authorities responsible for the electrical installations and fol-

low their instructions.

NOTICE
