3.3 Machine operation
The machine is constructed in accordance with state of the art and recognized safety standards. De-
spite these precautions, however, dangers or impairments to the machine can occur under certain cir-
cumstances.
• Only use the machine when in technically sound condition and in compliance with its intended pur-
pose. Be aware of safety factors and possible dangers and always observe the operating instruc-
tions provided.
• In addition to the operating instructions, observe the applicable statutory and other regulations per-
taining to accident prevention, and instruct staff accordingly.
• Make sure that safety-related faults are remedied without delay.
3.3.1 Set-up mode
In set-up mode, all machine movements can be performed via the control desk with the protective de-
vices open.
• Only operate the buttons once you are sure of their function.
• Do not reach into potential danger zones (e.g. crushing points) during manual operation.
• Ensure, that no personnel are within the indicated (restricted) zones.
3.3.2 Safety devices
The machine may only be run when all safety devices and safety-related equipment are available and
fully functional!
• No changes, additions or conversions may be performed which might impair safety.
This applies in particular to safety device adjustments.
• The machine operator must wear safety goggles and gloves where necessary.
• All warning signs on the machine must be clearly legible.
3.3.3 Staff qualifications
The machine may only be operated, maintained and repaired by authorised, qualified and instructed
staff.
Those staff must have been specially instructed on the potential hazards.
3.4 Maintenance, repairs and trouble-shooting
• Servicing and maintenance work entails a greater risk of accidents than normal operation. For this
reason, turn off the mains switch before starting work and secure with a padlock to prevent unau-
thorized activation of the machine.
• Servicing and maintenance work may only be carried out by suitably qualified and authorized per-
sonnel.
• Pay attention to the information provided in the operating instructions during setting, maintenance
and repair work.
