2.3.2 Danger signs on the system
DR1500 has been equipped with all mechanisms that guarantee a safe operation. In
places where the danger zone could not be safeguarded totally, with consideration to
the operational reliability, safety signs have been placed. They indicate remaining
technical dangers when handling the system and give information on how to avoid
these dangers.
For your safety, the following safety symbols have been fixed to the installation. Please
make yourself familiar with the signification of these symbols. The following
explanatory notes will provide you with detailed information.
At the drive, the chain or the rope is actuated by a gear motor over a
driving wheel. As certain mounting and maintenance works are only
possible with an open cover, it is necessary to be extremely careful.
In the feed containers with forced leading-in resp. feedback or RAS
the feed is further transported with a feed auger. Never try to push your
fingers into the feed opening to remove possibly stuck material.
If the release switches, do not try to help with your fingers if it jams.

any repair, maintenance or cleaning works, put main
