2.3 Product-specific risks
The machine/unit is designed in accordance with the latest state of
technology. Nevertheless, the machine/unit may impose risks:
2.3.1 Risks imposed by mechanical equipment
Risk of squeezing
When the die system closes, there is a risk of getting squeezed
between the die and the workpiece.
•
Keep the feed opening for the workpiece as small as possible.
•
Keep sufficient distance to the die system.
Tilting hazard
The risk of tilting mainly exists while the machine is being trans-
ported.
•
Observe the machine's centre of gravity during transport.
2.3.2 Risks imposed by hydraulic equipment
Risks are imposed by all hydraulic lines and connections. Hydraulic
systems are subject to special safety provisions. Work on hydraulic
equipment may only be performed by persons with expert knowledge
of and experience with hydraulic equipment.
•
After the machine is deactivated, the given and potentially ha-
zardous residual energy has to be considered.
•
Relieve the residual pressure in the system before performing
repair or maintenance work on hydraulic systems.
•
Regularly check lines and bolted connections for leaks and vi-
sible damage. Immediately remedy any damage detected.
Repair work on the hydraulic system of the machine or on its compo-
nents may only be performed by
the manufacturer’s specialist staff.
