1.3 Primary Safety Considerations (cont’d)
The periodic checks and inspections listed in this Manual should be
performed
thoroughly and on time. This will help ensure that the
Blastrac® equipment will continue to operate efficiently, economically
and safely. Failure to perform these checks and inspections will
potentially foster inefficient and unsafe equipment.
Never use the machine unless all safety devices and equipment
affecting safety, e.g. guards, detachable safety equipment, emergency
switches and dust collector is in place and
working!
1.4 Selecting Personnel and Their Qualifications
Stipulate to the machine operators their responsibility and authorize
them to refuse instructions from third parties that contravene safety
regulations! Personnel in training or under instruction may only
operate the machine under the supervision of an experienced person!
Both supervisory and operating personnel should be familiar with the
location and proper use of fire suppression and extinguishing
equipment on site.
Before starting any work with or on the machine, all authorized
personnel must read and understand the Instruction Manual. AFTER
work has started is TOO LATE. This applies in particular to those
persons who only work on the machine occasionally, i.e. setting-up,
maintenance, changing filters, etc.
The Instruction Manual must be supplemented by management
developed rules, including supervisory and personnel levels with
notifying duties, taking special operational features into account, i.e.
regarding work organization, operational sequences, personnel used,
training, etc. Always keep the Instruction Manual in good condition
and with the machine. Only properly trained personnel should be
allowed to operate this equipment.
