Safety Hazards
15. Carry out maintenance and repair work only
if the machine is positioned on stable and
level ground and has been secured against
inadvertent movement and buckling.
16. Never allow unqualied or untrained personnel
to attempt to remove or replace any part of the
machine, or anyone to remove large or heavy
components without adequate lifting equipment.
17. To avoid the risk of accidents, individual
parts and large assemblies being moved for
replacement purposes should be carefully
attached to lifting equipment and secured. Use
only suitable and technically adequate lifting
equipment.
18. Never work or stand under suspended loads.
19. Keep away from the feed hopper. There is risk
of serious injury or death due to the loading of
material.
20. Keep away from underneath the product
conveyor and the conveyor discharge area.
There is risk of serious injury or death due to
the material falling from the conveyor.
21. Falling from and/or onto a Pegson machine can
cause injury or even death.
22. Do not climb on the machine. Never use
machine parts as a climbing aid.
23. Beware of moving haulage and loading
equipment in the vicinity of the machine.
24. For carrying out overhead assembly work
always use specially designed or otherwise
safety-oriented ladders and working platforms.
25. Always use any walkway/platforms provided
or a safe and secure platform approved by the
regional safety enforcing authority.
26. Always use an EN/A.N.S.I. approved safety
harness when reaching any points 2m (7ft) or
more above the ground level.
27. Keep all handles, steps, handrails, platforms,
landing and ladders free from dirt, oil, snow and
ice.
28. The fastening of loads and instructing of crane
operators should be entrusted to experienced
persons only. The person marshalling and
giving the instructions must be within sight or
sound of the operator.
29. After cleaning, examine all fuel, lubricant
and hydraulic uid lines for leaks, loose
connections, chafe marks and damage. Any
defects found must be rectied without delay.
30. Any safety devices removed for setting up,
maintenance or repair purposes must be retted
and checked immediately upon completion of
the maintenance and repair work to ensure full
working order.
31. Improperly disposing of waste can threaten the
environment and ecology. Potentially harmful
waste used with Pegson equipment includes
such items as oil, fuel, coolant, lters and
batteries, etc.
32. Use leak proof trays and sealed containers
for drained uids. Do not use food or beverage
containers that may mislead someone into
drinking from them.
33. Do not pour waste onto the ground, down a
drain or into any water source.
34. Ensure that all consumable items and replaced
parts are disposed of safely and with minimum
environmental impact.
