3 Personal Safety
It is the company's responsibility to ensure that the appropriate laws and regulations of the
country are complied with in connection with working with the baler. The company shall ensure
that the operator has read and understood the operating instructions, see chapter 2, Conditions.
Only authorized employees (18 years or older) may operate, inspect, or maintain the baler.
Only authorized employees (16-18 years) may load the baler, but not operate it.
It is the operator's responsibility to have read and understood the operating instructions so the
baler can be safely operated. It is also the operator's responsibility to perform daily inspections of
the baler. Thus, the operator must ensure that any defects are repaired, so that neither the
operator or others are exposed to danger, see chapter 14, Maintenance, Daily check.
The baler may have a relatively high centre of gravity even if the platen is lowered, and therefore
may tip during transport, see chapter 5, Transport.
Repair and servicing must only be performed by authorized personnel who possess the
necessary knowledge and understanding of the subject, see chapter 6, Installation and chapter
14, Maintenance.
Installation and connection of the baler must occur in accordance with chapter 6, Installation,
Connection.
• The baler must only be operated by one person. Only the operator may remain in the baler's
working area when the bale is ejected. See chapter 6, Installation, Clearances and working
area.
• The working area must be orderly and free of waste, etc.
• The baler must not be used if the safety features are incapacitated, defective, or in any way
not working anymore.
• Only use cords, straps, or steel wires that are recommended by the dealer of the baler, see
chapter 7, Cords, straps, or steel wire.
• Binding with steel wire can pose a risk of tearing hands and clothes. Steel wire may be slightly
difficult to handle, since it is not so easy to bend. Therefore, exercise extra caution and
always be aware of both ends of the steel wire at the same time.
• When handling the bale, it is recommended that you use gloves, as there may be sharp
objects concealed in the waste.
