Safety, Risks
Many safety features have been included in the mechanical, electronic, and pneumatic systems of this
machine. Despite these safety precautions, operators may receive lacerations, minor burns, or crushed or
broken bone injuries if they come in contact with any moving components. Improper use, improper
adjustments and neglect of preventative maintenance may result in serious personal injury. No special
personal protective equipment is required to operate the equipment, but eye protection, gloves or other
protection should be worn, depending on the characteristics of the product being packaged and the
method of loading product.
Please carefully read the following precautions to operate the equipment properly and avoid injury:
•
CAUTION: Initial setup of the machine must be performed by specialized personnel. Qualified
service engineers should uncrate the equipment, assemble the equipment (if required), test and
connect power sources, test the equipment for proper operation and otherwise set up the
equipment for use.
•
CAUTION: Do not attempt to adjust the height without assistance and without supporting the
weight of the machine. Attempting to make a height adjustment without assistance could cause
the machine to drop suddenly, causing severe injury. APPI offers several optional accessories
that can reduce the risk of injury during height adjustments. These accessories include carts,
motorized height adjustment components and stabilizing bars.
•
CAUTION: Ensure that any height adjustments allow for sufficient movement of the operator.
Improper height adjustments could negatively affect operator movement, causing strain, added
stress, discomfort and fatigue.
•
CAUTION: To avoid injury, do not operate the equipment if funnels, guards, covers or other
access panels have been removed. If any of these safety measures have been removed or
modified or if any openings have been increased, the operator will have access to moving
components and extreme temperatures that can cause crush, cut, or burn injuries to hands or
fingers.
•
CAUTION: To avoid injury, do not reach under the equipment, guards or elsewhere under the
machine. Do not place hands or fingers in the seal area or near the seal bar, heater bar, load
shelf or other moving components.
•
CAUTION: Do not remove or loosen fasteners on the frame. If loosened, the equipment may
drop suddenly, causing injury or damage to the machine.
•
CAUTION: Be careful when opening the seal frame as it may drop suddenly, causing injury or
damage to the equipment.
•
CAUTION: To avoid injury, avoid coming in contact with pinch points including rollers,
automatic funnel doors or other moving components.
