2.1.3 Dangers and how to avoid them

Safe working on the machine requires a combination of machine, controls, tooling, pro-
tection equipment and proper safety behaviour by the user.
In the majority of machine accidents, injuries are caused by self-closing tools. In these
cases mainly finger and hand injuries are involved. The risk of injury applies equally to
other people as well as to machine operators.

rotational procedure for the F37 flange system and is a workshop machine for jobbing
production.
