Operation
DANGER Risk of death due to a failure to
adhere to the safety clearance
A failure to adhere to the safety clearance during
cutting operations can result in severe injuries and
even death.
►
Ensure that no persons are within a distance of
15 metres during cutting work .
►
Ensure that no persons are within a distance of
50 metres during cutting work on reinforced
steel.
►
Immediately shut down the carrier with the
transverse drum cutter, if a person accesses
the hazardous area during cutting work.
►
Only switch on the carrier with the transverse
drum cutter once certain that no persons are
located in the hazardous area.
WARNING Hot hydraulic oil squirting out
The hydraulic system is under high pressure. If
hydraulic connections come loose, hydraulic oil will
squirt out under high pressure. Hydraulic oil
squirting out can lead to serious injury.
►
Immediately switch off the hydraulic attachment
and the carrier if you detect any leaks in the
hydraulic circuits.
►
Depressurise the hydraulic system (see chapter
Depressurising the hydraulic system).
►
Repair any leaks before operating the hydraulic
attachment again.
WARNING Injuries due to moving parts
The rotating cutter drums can cause severe
injuries.
►
When operating the transverse drum cutter
always maintain a safety distance of at least 15
metres.
►
During operation do not reach into moving parts
or handle moving parts.
►
Observe run-on time: Before touching the
transverse drum cutter ensure that no parts are
still moving.
►
When in the hazardous area wear closely fitting
clothes with a minimal tear strength.
WARNING Hot parts
Cutter drums, hoses, pipes and fittings become
very hot during operation. Touching them may lead
to burns.
►
Never touch hot parts.
►
If you have to carry out activities where you
have to touch the parts, wait for them to cool
down first.
WARNING Lung disease
When cutting with the transverse drum cutter, dust
harmful to health is generated. Inhaled dust can
result in long-term lung damage or have other
effects on health.
►
When working in close proximity to the cutting
work always wear light respiratory protection.
►
Always keep the doors to the carrier closed.
WARNING Injuries due to severe vibrations
Strong vibrations can result in the long-term in
significant injuries and chronic damage to health.
►
Drive the carrier with an even load whenever
possible, in order to minimise vibrations
produced.
►
Avoid abrupt starting up or stopping of the
cutter drums.
NOTICE Hydraulic oil too hot
The temperature of the hydraulic oil must not
exceed 80 °C. Exceeding the hydraulic oil
temperature of 80 °C leads to hydraulic motor
failure.
►
The temperature of the hydraulic oil must be
monitored, especially in continuous operation.
►
Shut off the carrier and the hydraulic
attachment if you measure an increased
temperature in the tank.
►
Check the hydraulic installation and the
pressure relief valve.
NOTICE Environmental damage due to hydraulic
oil
Hydraulic oil is environmentally harmful and must
not penetrate the ground or enter the water table
or water supplies.
►
Collect any hydraulic oil which escapes.
►
Dispose of it in accordance with the applicable
environmental regulations.
