Safety devices on the machine:
Protections and safety devices should not be modified. They must be put together again in
case of possible removal for maintenance.
They must be kept in place and in good condition during normal operation.
The PR 245 S is equipped with security systems protecting the operator from any risk of pinching.
The main elements of security are:
The emergency stop
Situated on the left on the front of the machine: if the operator actions it, he switches the machine off.
The bimanual control
To control the pressing, only a constant and simultaneous hold of both push buttons enables the heating
plate to go down. It is necessary that the heating plate is in full lock on the right side or the left side, so that one of
the 2 “thrust” microswitches is activated. It is only at this moment that the operator can action both push buttons. If
the operator does not constantly maintain the pressure on the two buttons until the two plates are in contact, the
heating plate goes back up automatically.
OPTION : Control by pedal
It will be possible for the operator to pilot the plate lowering using the pedal. In that case, the protection of
the operator will be ensured by the security cover.
Checking of the functioning of the safety device:
¾ Periodically try the emergency stop
¾ Daily control the functioning of the bimanual
¾ Control the good functioning of the security cover (in the case of the option).
After an emergency stop:
Check if no other problem remains on the machine.
Unlock the emergency stop turning the red part: the machine will reset itself automatically.
