Safety instructions (warning notes) 1.2.1 Classification of hazards We classify the safety warnings into various levels. The table below gives an overview of the classification of symbols (ideogram) and the warning signs for each specific danger and its (possible) consequences. Ideogram Warning alert Definition / consequence...
If the geared drill is used in any way other than described above, modified without authoriza- tion of Optimum Maschinen Germany GmbH, then the geared drill is being used improperly. We will not be held liable for any damages resulting from any operation which is not in accor- dance with the intended use.
Reasonably foreseeable misuses Any other use as the one determined under the "Intended use" or any use beyond the descri- bed use shall be deemed as not in conformity and is forbidden. Any other use has to be discussed with the manufacturer. It is only allowed to process metal, cold and non-inflammable materials with the geared drill.
1.4.1 Avoiding misuses Use of suitable cutting tools. Adapting the speed adjustment and feed to the material and workpiece. Clamp workpieces firmly and vibration-free. ATTENTION! The workpiece is always to be fixed by a machine vice, jaw chuck or by another appropriate clamping tool such as for the clamping claws.
the correct function of the geared drill may be affected. Always disconnect the geared drill if cleaning or maintenance work is being carried out, or is no longer in use. WARNING! The geared drill may only be used with the safety devices activated. Disconnect the geared drill immediately whenever you detect a failure in the safety devices or when they are not mounted! All additional devices installed by the operator have to be equipped with the prescribed...
1.6.2 Authorized persons WARNING! Inappropriate operation and maintenance of the geared drill constitutes a danger for the staff, objects and the environment. Only authorized staff may operate the geared drill! Persons authorized to operate and maintain should be trained technical staff and instructed by the ones who are working for the operating company and for the manufacturer.
Abb.1-1: Operator positions Safety measures during operation CAUTION! Risk due to inhaling of health hazardous dusts and mist. Dependent on the material which need to be processed and the used auxiliaries dusts and mist may be caused which might impair you health. Make sure that the generated health hazardous dusts and mist are safely sucked off at the point of origin and is dissipated or filtered from the working area.
once a week (with the machine in operation), after every maintenance and repair work. Check that prohibition, warning and information signs and the labels on the geared drill are legible (clean them, if necessary), are complete (replace if necessary). INFORMATION Use the following table in order to organize the checks.
