Safety Guards
A red safety nger guard covers the moving
parts at the front of the unit. It runs the entire
length of the unit’s working area and physically
restricts hands from coming into contact with
moving and heated parts. Pushing the safety
nger guard immediately stops the heating system
and all rotating parts.
Both endframes and the rear of the unit are
covered with protective doors and panels to
prevent ngers or hands from coming into contact
with moving and heated parts. Removing the rear
panel immediately stops the heating system and
all rotating parts.
Safety Interlock Switch
A safety interlock switch is located behind
the protective backplate. If it is removed, the
interlock switch is disconnected, all rotating parts
stop moving, and the heating system shuts o.
This safety interlock switch is not intended to
lockout the unit. Site management is responsible
for developing and implementing lockout/
tagout procedures that comply with government
standards for use when servicing the unit.
Figure 1-2: Safety labels remind operators and maintenance personnel that care must be taken when working
near these areas.
Safety Labels
WARNING (orange) and CAUTION (yellow)
labels (Figure 1-2) are placed at locations around
the unit to keep operators and maintenance
personnel alert in particular areas.
WARNING labels alert personnel that
personal injury may result from not following
recommended procedures.
CAUTION labels alert personnel the unit
may be damaged if conditions, practices, or
procedures are not observed.
When training operators, take the time to
locate, review, and understand all areas where
labels are posted.
NOTE: Do not remove safety
labels at any time. If a label
needs to be replaced, contact
Chicago Dryer Company for free
replacements.
