Pinch hazard to fingers.
This hazard relates to grip jaws closing quickly, pinching fingers.
Recommendations
For 2712 Series pneumatic grips:
• In the documentation supplied with the grips, read and follow the safety
recommendations for installing a specimen.
• Use the Operator Protection feature in Bluehill
®
software. This uses a reduced initial
grip pressure (default 15 psi) during set up and you can set a lower initial grip
pressure if your risk assessment requires it.
• Use jaw face shields.
