6.3 Danger
Through wire sawing, particles are torn out of the material and the grinding medium with high
speed. Due to the different workpiece forms, it is not possible to fit the safety guard exactly to
the workpiece. Provide appropriate workwear (see personal protection measures). Always
consider the safety safety clearance – the danger area is the idle wire length
(
Pict. 3
, see
page 16).
Fire hazard:
Never cut near flammable substances or in rooms with explosives!
Never cut workpieces from aluminium, magnesium, or any aluminium or magnesium
alloys!
Aluminium and magnesium chipping is readily flammable!
Do not cut any material where harmful dust or vapours are produced in the grinding
process (e.g. asbestos at renovations etc.)!
Do not cut any material where explosive dust is produced in the grinding process!
If above-mentioned work is done, clarify separately which further safety measures are to be
conducted. Your contact is your regulatory authority and your professional association.
6.4 Emissions
The A-rated equivalent continuous sound pressure level of this system is lower than 75 dbA,
thus no ear protection is needed. Hence, this wire saw is especially suitable for the use in
construction of public social institutions such as hospitals and nursing homes.
6.5 Sources of danger
High wire speed
Danger at a potential wire crack, by whipping of the wire and consequenly flying wire
or closure parts, being able to cause heavy chip or crush injuries.
If any limbs come between the wire and the roller guides, they can be pinched or cut
off. Loose clothes can be trapped inbetween the operating wheels, too. Thus,
absolutely avoid the danger area (
Pict. 3
, see page 16)
during machine operation.
Prior to maintenance and cleaning, the motor must be switched off and the voltage
supply must be disconnected (pull out power plug)
Turn off the motor before you leave the machine.
Leave the machine only when it is brought to a halt.
Never remove safety equipment, or never change the system so that the safety
devices do not function anymore.
During the cutting operation, never stay in the alignment of the idle wire (
Pict. 3
, see
page 16)
.
Danger through high voltage current – danger to life!
