WARNING MESSAGES IN THIS MANUAL
Throughout this manual various
DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION, and safety
related NOTICE messages appear. The intent is to alert operator and maintenance
personnel to potential hazards. In addition, important operation and maintenance details are
emphasized with the NOTE heading.
SAFETY FIRST
The equipment in this line was designed and manufactured for a specific task. DO NOT use
the equipment for any other function or to process material that is beyond the equipment’s
design specifications. Modifications or additions to this equipment line should not be made
without first consulting MESTEK MACHINERY. Replacement and maintenance parts should
be equal to original equipment. Use of other parts may result in unsafe operating conditions.
If there is a question as to the suitability of a part, MESTEK MACHINERY should be
consulted.
In general, every piece of equipment must be treated as dangerous. While operating or
maintaining this equipment, each person must be aware of their own safety as well as the
safety of all others around the line.
Material Coils
Coils present numerous hazards. They may shift, roll or fall without warning. Some
coils may spring open without warning. Sharp edges of the strip in the coil are
hazardous. Stay clear of coils as they are being moved. Use extreme caution any
time a coil is approached or handled.
Metal Strips
The metal strip may have sharp or ragged edges. The strip is under tension and is
subject to abrupt tension changes. This can result in strip breakage with the ends
flying without warning. Stay clear of the strip whenever possible. When it is necessary
to approach or handle the strip, use extreme caution. Use protective devices such as
tongs, gloves, eye protection, and wrist guards as required for safety. The strip
presents many pinch hazards with the machinery. Stay clear of these. Never step on
or over strip in the line.
Machinery
Never reach into any piece of machinery which is operating or which is capable of
operation. Loose clothing or jewelry should be kept clear of machinery at all times.
When working on one piece of equipment, be aware of hazards of surrounding
equipment. Any item inserted into a machine may be thrown or may cause a
dangerous malfunction or breakage.
Safe Guards
No equipment should be operated unless the safe guards or devices supplied with
the product fittings are securely in place and properly adjusted.
