PELLERIN MILNOR CORPORATION
• Install safety stands before performing maintenance under a tilted machine.
• NEVER test or operate (manually or automatically) any machine function with any
portion of a person's body under the tilted machine - even if the safety stands are installed.
WARNING 6 : Crush/Sever hazard—Tilt machines with tilt wheels/cradles may lunge
forward or rearward and even fall over if the non-tilted ends are raised out of their cradles -
killing/injuring personnel and/or damaging property.
• NEVER manually tilt (lift) both ends of the machine at the same time. One end must
always be seated in its cradle.
• ALWAYS visually inspect the tilt wheels to be sure they are all fully seated in their
cradles before each manual tilt up.
• Pneumatic valve manual operation must be done by trained competent maintenance
personnel who thoroughly understand the system and all the consequences of manual
operations.
• ALWAYS understand beforehand all the consequences of manually operating pneumatic
valves.
• NEVER permit operation with malfunctioning tilt limit switches
Tilting machines leave the factory with 4 hold-down bolts (two per side) locking the tilting mid-
frame to the floor frame (Figure 7). Remove these bolts after machine is anchored and grouted,
service connections are complete and all other installation steps are complete.
