2.1 General Safety
•
Crafco, Inc. assumes no liability for an accident or injury incurred through improper use of
the machine.
•
Read this manual thoroughly before operating the machine.
•
Obey all CAUTION and WARNING signs posted on the machine.
•
Make sure an operator fully knows how to operate the machine before using the machine.
2.2 Personal Safety
•
The high operating temperatures of this machine and the sealant it contains requires that
protective clothing, gloves, hard-soled shoes, and safety glasses or a face shield be worn at
all times by operators of the machine.
•
Prevent water from going into any part of the machine. If there is indication of water in the
heat transfer oil system, warm heating oil to 250-300°F for 2 to 3 hours.
•
Bodily contact with hot sealant or heat transfer oil can cause severe burns.
•
If the mixe
r is not stopped before adding solid material, hot material can get on an operator’s
body and cause severe burns.
•
Keep hands, feet, and clothing away from all moving parts.
2.3 Equipment or Operational Safety
•
Do not operate the machine in buildings or work areas that do not have sufficient airflow.

Make sure the mixer stops before adding solid material to the sealant tank. Lift the lid, place
the material on the lid, and close the lid. The mixer should restart automatically.
•
Always keep a correctly maintained fire extinguisher near the machine and know how to use
it.

the current oil temperature (0°F, 70°F, or 150°F) See
