(cleaning, maintenance, settings, troubleshooting). Secure the machine/system against unintentional reactivation. Have electrical equipment repaired by the authorized Heidelberg service only. Appropriate supports and protection must be used to avoid dangerous situations when assembling and disassembling heavy parts or components.
Safety Handling cleaning agents, solvents, inks and varnishes Cleaning agents, solvents, inks and varnishes can be combustible, explosive, corrosive, poisonous or volatile. Observe the following instructions: Provide appropriate ventilation in the room. Avoid any possible sources of ignition. Observe explosion prevention measures. No smoking, drinking or eating when working with these materials.
Safety Handling anti-freezing agents Anti-freezing agents can contain dangerous sub- stances such as ethylene glycol, which are particu- larly hazardous to your health if swallowed. Observe the following instructions: Handle anti-freezing agents carefully to avoid contact with the skin and eyes. Wear impermeable gloves if your skin could come into contact with anti-freezing agents for repeated or longer periods or time.
Safety Handling hot air/IR dryer slide-in units Hot dryer slide-in units (hot air/IR) pose a risk of burns. Always let the dryer slide-in units cool down for a long period of time before touching them. IR radiation damages the eyes. Avoid looking directly into the IR radiators.
Safety Working with compressed air When cleaning using compressed air, bear in mind that loose dust and powder particles are picked up by the air and can cause injury to the eyes and can damage the respiratory system. Always wear protective glasses and a dust mask when cleaning using compressed air.
General information about the drying process General information about the drying process Drying process Both inks and coatings are used for offset printing. Inks and coatings both dry in a different way. Offset ink dries, to a greater extent, through the chemical process of oxidation, and to a lesser extent, through the absorption of mineral oils by the print material.

General information about the drying process Coating dryer The dryer slide-in unit of a coating dryer contains the IR radiators and other additional hot air nozzles. Hot air is blown out of these nozzles and onto the coating layer. The hot air heats the varnish and evaporates the water content of the varnish.
