B-1 Checkout Procedure Log
The following Checkout Procedure must be performed by qualified personnel during initial F3SS installation and
at least every three months or more frequently depending on a machine usage and company guidelines.
Hint: make a copy of the checkout procedure form and use the copy as the checkout log to be kept with the
machine records. Use caution when working around hazardous voltages which may be present during this pro-
cedure.
Machine Identification:
1.Verify the guarded machine is compatible with the type of machine which
may be used with a F3SS.
2.Verify that the mounting distance of the F3SS is equal to or greater than
the minimum safe distance from the point of operation.
3.Determine that all access to the danger point not protected by a F3SS
are guarded by other means, such as gates, fencing, wire screening or
other approved methods. Verify that all additional guarding devices, inter-
lock switches and mechanical barriers are installed and operating properly.
4.Verify that the F3SS can only be reset from a position outside and within
the view of the hazardous machine area.
5.Inspect the electrical connections between the guarded machine control
circuitry and the F3SS. Verify that they are properly connected to the
machine such that a stop signal from the F3SS results in an immediate halt
at any point in the machine's cycle or stroke.
6.Record the test results in the machine log. Next, perform the Test Proce-
dure.
