Possible Hazards whilst Operating
The motors are low force and inertia; they therefore present a low risk when used in
accordance with manufacturer’s instructions. Care should be taken in the vicinity of
the marking head whilst setting, operating or maintaining the machine. It is important
when operating the machine that any object other than the work piece to be marked
is kept away from the marking area.
Eye protection should be worn when operating the machine.
We would also remind UK employers of the general risk assessment requirement in
the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations and in addition the
requirement to ensure that work equipment is used only for the operation for which it
is suitable in accordance with the Provision and Use of Work Equipment
Regulations.
Users outside of the UK are reminded to ensure they are compliant with local
legislation and to ensure adequate control measure are in place to reduce risk to an
acceptable level.
Installing and Commissioning
It is essential to read the user manual(s) prior to use.
Disposal and Decommissioning
The LCD contains a hazardous liquid. It should be disposed of in accordance with
current regulations.
The controller contains a lithium battery. It should be disposed of in accordance with
current regulations.
Stability of the machine
Two bolt holes are provided in the base of the machine to fasten it down.
Emergency Stop
An emergency stop is supplied with the controller. This should not be confused with
the remote start/stop pendant. When pressed all mechanical movement is
immediately stopped and power is disconnected from the drive circuits. Any
information which has not been saved will be lost. Once activated the emergency
stop button can be released by twisting it. Releasing the emergency stop will not
reactivate the machine until appropriate commands are executed from the keyboard.
