- Be sure to use only blades corresponding to the dimensions indicated in the technical data
and relevant to your work.
- Make sure that periodic maintenance be carried out in due time. Try out weekly the
emergency stops.
- Read the instructions of maintenance and adjustment of the automatic brake of the
motor. Check if the automatic braking of the motor time is less than 10 seconds, if the
emergency stops functioning correctly.
- All guards need to be kept in a good working condition and need to be checked regularly to
ensure that they move freely, are free from any defect and are capable of being adjusted over
the full range of work for which they were designed.
- Maintenance work should only be carried out by people who have the combination of training,
skills, experience and knowledge to do the work.
Danger list
This list was based on C-norms EN ISO 19085-5.
Mechanical risks caused by, for example:
- the shape, the mass and the stability (potential energy of the elements), relative disposition, the
mass and speed (kinetic energy of the elements), insufficient mechanical resistance, accumulation
of potential energy of the elastic elements (springs), elements of the machine or machined pieces -
Risk of crushing
- Risk of cuts
- Risk of gasping, wrapping
- Risk of electric shock or pinching
- Ejection of elements (of the machine or of the processed part), electrical risks, caused by electrical
contact (directly or indirectly)
- Risks caused by noise, materials or inhalation of toxic substances
- Risk of fire or explosion
- Combination of risks
- Risks caused by failure in the supply of energy, defect of elements of the machine and other
functional disorders, for example all types of safety devices, safety equipment and start / stop
equipment.
- Safety signals and pictograms and all types of information or equipment.
Operating instructions
The following recommendations for safe working procedures are given as an example, on top of this
machine’s information characteristics.
When working with the machine, safety equipment must be used.
Nevertheless, the user must also follow the operating instructions to avoid accidents.
TRAINING OF MACHINING OPERATORS
The use of woodworking machines should be restricted to people who are properly trained and have
enough information and instruction, particularly where the machine is hand-fed. The effort of moving
the material through the machine is usually towards the fast moving cutter(s) which in many cases
cannot be fully enclosed. Safety therefore relies on a combination of the use of guards, protection
devices and protection appliances, selecting competent people to use the equipment and following
safe working practices and systems of work. It is essential that the machine operator receives
thorough training regarding operating and adjusting the machine.
