4 HEALTH AND SAFETY STANDARDS
4.1 FOREWORD
Each machine operator should have a perfect knowledge of the location and working operation of all controls
as well as the machine characteristics. It is therefore essential that they read this manual fully. Furthermore,
the instruction manual must be kept near the machine.
Unauthorised tampering or replacement of machine parts, the use of accessories, tools and consumable
materials other than those recommended by the Manufacturer can lead to accidents for which the Manufacturer
declines responsibility for all penal or civil liabilities.
4.2 INTENDED MACHINE USE
The BLITZ sawing machine has been designed for cutting profiles in aluminium or light alloy.
Any materials other than these are not compatible with the specific machine characteristics.
WARNING
The machine is not suitable for use in environments where there is the risk of fire or explosion.
All combustible and/or flammable materials should be kept as far away from the machine as possible.
The machine has been specifically designed to be used by a single operator.
4.3 SAFETY WARNINGS
The term “OPERATOR” specifically refers to the person or persons entrusted with installing, operating,
adjusting, carrying out maintenance, cleaning, repairing and handling the machine; “DANGEROUS AREAS”
refers to any area inside and/or near the machine in which the presence of an exposed individual constitutes
a risk to the health and safety of that person; “EXPOSED INDIVIDUAL” refers to any person standing fully
or partially in a dangerous area.
Working conditions
- According to the provisions of “lighting in work areas”, the place where the machine is used must have no
areas in shadow, glaring lights (reflections-reverberation), or dangerous strobe effects caused by the lighting
in the workshop. The selected area must be well lit (minimum 300 lux).
- Furthermore, efficient ventilation must be guaranteed in the workplace with the use of a suitable extraction
system where necessary.
- The areas where the operator works should always be kept clear and clean from any oil residue.
Intended machine use
- The machine must be operated by skilled staff only and is designed for machining "NON-TOXIC” “NON
AGGRESSIVE”and“NON EXPLOSIVE” materials; the use of any products other than these absolves the
Manufacturer from any responsibility for damage caused to the machine, persons or property.
- The machine can work at ambient temperatures from 10° to +40°. During storage periods or when the
machine is not working, the ambient temperature must be between -10° and + 60°.
- Before setting to work, the operator must have a perfect knowledge of the location and working operations
of all controls as well as the machine characteristics.
- The machining commands must be given by just one operator; the assistance of more than one operator
is only allowed in the workpiece loading phase.
