Cleveland Steel Tool Ironworkers feature a centrally located,
integrated Control Panel. Hazardous voltage is present
within the control panel. The panel should only be opened
and serviced by authorized personnel. An external power
source enters this panel and is distributed to the various
working components of the machine.
Push to Start
This button energizes the machine. When energized this
recessed button is internally illuminated and will glow green.
If the machine does not start when pressed an emergency
palm stop button may have been previously pressed and
will need to be reset to allow for the start button to energize
the machine.
Emergency Palm Stop
This button de-energizes the machine and contains a
manual, safety reset function. The projecting, red, palm
stop style button is set within a safety yellow bezel and is
pushed to de-energize the machinery. Once de-energized
the machine requires the palm stop to be re-set prior to
energizing the machine. Simply rotate the emergency
palm stop button clockwise. The button will retract and the
machine will be available for powered operation.
Operations Control
This three-position switch allows the ironworker operation to
shuttle between Ironworker, hydraulic accessory (optional)
or auto-cut (optional) mode.
Ironworker
Power the Ironworker by rotating the three position switch
counter-clockwise. This function allows for operations of
the Ironworker only.
Lockout/Tagout
This round, safety red switch is set within a square, safety
yellow housing. The switch allows for proper procedures
to be followed when de-energizing, isolating, and ensuring
the energy isolation of the Ironworker. The Lockout/Tagout
switch is used, in conjunction with Owner safety and
maintenance programs to ensure that equipment and
machinery is de-energized and isolated from unexpected
start-up by physically locking machinery in a state of zero
energy.
To lockout the Ironworker turn the red switch counter-
clockwise until the black tagout bar is horizontal. Pull the
black, spring-loaded tagout mechanism to install the
maintenance/safety lock and tag provided by the Owner
of the machinery. The machine is now de-energized and is
available for authorized personnel to maintain and service
the machinery.
To open the control panel for servicing, gently pull the
‘hopper-style’ hinged cover. The cover will not open fully until
a safety yellow thumb slide located within the safety yellow
housing is rotated clockwise. Reverse operation following
service to resume Ironworking.
