Edge MAXX Operating Guidelines
3-3
Figure 3-4: Exit conveyor RED Safety latch.
WARNING
For safety of personnel and
to prevent damage to the
equipment, the RED exit
conveyor safety latch (Figure
3-4) needs to be engaged
each and every time the exit
conveyor is placed in
the UP position.
Safety Interlock Switches
Safety interlock switches (Figure 3-5) are
located inside each endframe. If any endframe
door is opened, the interlock switch for that door
is disconnected and all rotating parts immediately
stop.
Safety interlock switches are not intended to
lockout the unit. Site management is responsible
for developing and implementing lockout/tagout
procedures that comply with government
standards for use when servicing the unit.
Safety Labels
WARNING (orange) and CAUTION (yellow)
labels are placed at locations around the unit to
keep operators and maintenance personnel alert
in particular areas.
WARNING labels (Figure 3-6) alert personnel
that personal injury may result from not
following recommended procedures.
Figure 3-6: Safety labels remind operators that
care must be taken when working near
these areas.
Figure 3-5: Each endframe panel has a safety
interlock switch.
CAUTION labels alert personnel that the
machine may be damaged
if the cautions and
warnings of conditions, practices, or procedures
are not observed.
When training operators, take time to review,
understand, and locate all areas where labels are
posted.
NOTE: Do not remove safety
labels at any time. If a label
needs to be replaced, contact
Chicago Dryer Company for free
replacements.
