7. MACHINE PROTECTIONS
This machine is entirely protected where it can be dangerous. Despite of this, there are some parts that cannot be protected,
and where the operator must never work. The biggest of these parts is where the blade touches material.
There is a sticker close to every part which is not completely safe, to show to the operator that he should be extremely con-
scious.
8. HOW TO MOVE THE MACHINE
This machine, when installed and fastened to the ground must be considered a fix equipment.
If it is necessary to move the machine or parts of it (because of maintenance or service), the operator must use a crank or a
fork lift, or a lighter lifter with regards of the weight of the part that have to be lifted.
9. HOW TO INSTALL THE MACHINE
The machine can be installed by :
•
the manufacturer/distributor ;
•
the customer ;
The machine is shipped completely mounted.
Moving the machine is one of the moment the risk of injuries is higher, thus it is important to make sure that :
•
Every operator wears the necessary safety equipment.
•
The lifting equipment must be enough big to lift the machine. Always use only one lifting equipment to lift the machine,
never combine more then one.
•
Do not use a lift fork if the length and width of the forks are inadequate to lift the machine.
•
If using a crank, use metallic ropes and be sure they can support the weight of the machine. Put strong cartoon or wood
between the ropes and the machine. Never leave the ropes slide freely on the machine body.
•
Do not use metallic ropes if they show wear areas.
•
Lift the machine slowly so to have enough time to adjust the lifting if necessary or to avoid obstacles.
•
In the lifting area there should be enough people to move safely the machine, and do not allow anyone else to stay in the
lifting area during such operation.
•
Be sure that every moveable part is well fastened to the machine. Remove or secure every part which falling can be dan-
gerous for the people in the work area.
•
Move the machine paying attention to the surrounding environment. Be extremely cautious so to avoid hitting anyone or
anything.
•
Moving the machine, stay as close as you can to the ground to avoid that a rope brake could generate dangers or serious
machine breaks.
•
If necessary, put pieces of wood under the machine base before putting it down.
