KEY TAKEAWAYS

·       A user will be a person who will benefit from the function of the machinery as intended by the manufacturer.

 

 

BEST MOMENTS

 

·       As an importer you must ensure that the product isn't sold or advertised unless it meets conformity and that it has the appropriate markings.

·       If you install equipment you must follow the manufacturer's instructions. But you have a responsibility to ensure that if you are altering an existing machine or installation that it is safe.
