Operator's duty of care

Release 12/07
The machine was designed and constructed taking into account a
hazard analysis and after careful selection of the harmonised
standards to be observed, as well as other technical specifications.
Thus, it corresponds to the state of the art and allows the highest
possible degree of safety during operation.
The safety of the machine, however, can only be put into operating
practice if all measures required for the safety are taken. It falls within
the operator's duty of care to plan these measures and to verify their
implementation.
Above all, the operator must make sure that
•
the machine is only used in accordance with its purpose (cf. the
section "Use in accordance with the purpose" in the chapter
"Specification")
•
the machine is only operated in faultless serviceable condition
and that especially the safety devices are regularly checked with
respect to their serviceability
•
the required personal protective clothing and equipment for
operating, maintenance and repair personnel are available and
are being used
•
a legible and complete copy of the operating instructions is always
available at the place of operation of the machine
•
only personnel which is qualified and authorised for it will operate,
service, and repair the machine
•
this personnel is instructed in all relevant issues of occupational
safety and environmental protection on a regular basis and is
familiar with the operating instructions and especially the safety
instructions contained therein
•
all safety and warning instructions on the machine itself are not
removed and are legible
