A.4 General safety rules
Protection devices installed on the machine
The guards on the machine are:
•
fixed guards (e.g. casings, covers, side panels, etc.), fixed to the machine and/or frame
with screws or quick-release connectors that can only be removed or opened with tools.
Therefore, the user must not remove or tamper with such devices. The Manufacturer
declines any liability for damage due to tampering or their non-use.
Instructions for use and maintenance
•
Risks mainly of a mechanical, thermal and electrical nature exist in the machine. Where
possible the risks have been neutralised:
- directly, by means of adequate design solutions.
- indirectly by using guards, protection and safety devices.
•
During maintenance, always carried out by personnel qualified, several risks remain, as
these could not be eliminated, and must be neutralised by adopting specific measures and
precautions.
•
Do not carry out any checking, cleaning, repair or maintenance operations on moving
parts. Workers must be informed of this prohibition by means of clearly visible signs.
•
To ensure the efficiency and correct operation of the machine, periodic maintenance must
be carried out according to the instructions given in this manual.
•
Make sure to periodically check correct operation of all the safety devices and the
insulation of electrical cables, which must be replaced if damaged.
•
Repair and extraordinary Maintenance must be carried out by specialised and authorised
personnel provided with all the appropriate personal protective equipment, tools, utensils
and ancillary means.
•
Never operate the machine, removing, modifying or tampering with the guards, protection
or safety devices.
•
Before carrying out any operation on the machine, always consult the manual which gives
the correct procedures and contains important information on safety.
Residual risks
•
The machine has several risks that were not completely eliminated from a design
standpoint or with the installation of adequate protection devices. Nevertheless, through
this manual the Manufacturer has taken steps to inform operators of such risks, carefully
indicating the personal protective equipment to be used by them. In order to reduce the
risks, provide for sufficient spaces while installing the unit.
•
To ensure these conditions, the areas around the machine must always be:
- kept free of obstacles (e.g. ladders, tools, containers, boxes, etc.);
- clean and dry;
•
well lit.
For the Customer's complete information, the residual risks remaining on the machine are
indicated below: such situations are deemed improper and therefore strictly forbidden.
