Informal Security Measures

The operating manual needs to be at the location of the machine at all times. Additionally to the operating manual
the local regulations for accident prevention and environmental protection need to be available and they need to be
observed. All safety notes and danger indication need to be kept in legible condition.

Training of the personnel

Only adequately trained and instructed personnel should be authorized to work on the machine. The
responsibilities of the personnel as to the assembly, start up, operation, maintenance and repair of the machine
should be clearly defined. Personnel undergoing training should only work at the machine under the supervision of
an experienced person.

Control of the hose crimper

Warning:
Under no circumstances may the control system be modified in any way!

Safety measures for normal operation

The machine must only be operated when all protective coverings have been mounted correctly. Prior to switching
on the machine it must be certain that no one can be injured or endangered by the working machine. Inspect the
outside of the machine at least once during every shift to check for any damages.

Hazards caused by electrical energy

Only qualified electricians should carry out work on the electric power supply. The electrical components of the
machine need to be checked at regular intervals. Any loose connections and damaged cables should be repaired
immediately. The housing must always be kept closed and access should only be permitted to authorized
personnel.
If works are needed on any electrical components of the machine, a second person must take
part to activate the main switch in case of an emergency.

Dangers of hydraulic oil

Be sure to prevent any hydraulic oil from seeping into the ground, water and/or sewage system. Hydraulic oil is not
water soluble and hardly biologically degradable. Therefore hydraulic oil is water polluting according to the German
Water Resources Management Law (WHG, WHG 1). Avoid long and intensive skin contact.

Maintenance and servicing, trouble-shooting

Carry out prescribed maintenance work in time. Inform the operating personnel before you begin with the
maintenance and servicing work. Always make sure that the machine is off circuit when any maintenance,
