2.6 Work safety
In order to minimise risks and to ensure optimal perfor-
mance, it is strictly prohibited to alter, retrofit or modify
the machine in any way without the express consent of
the manufacturer.
All the pictograms, signs and labels affixed to the
machine must be kept visible, readable and may not be
removed. Pictograms, signs and labels that have become
damaged or unreadable must be replaced promptly.
This manual must be kept in the immediate vicinity of
the machine and be accessible at all times to all persons
working on or with the machine. The machine may only
be operated if it is in proper working order and in safe
condition. The general condition of the machine must be
controlled and the machine must be inspected for visible
defects every time before it is switched on. All instruc-
tions in this manual must be strictly followed without
reservation.
Besides the safety advice and instructions stated in this
manual, it is necessary to consider and observe local
accident prevention regulations, general safety regula-
tions as well as current environmental stipulations that
apply to the operational range of the machine.
The operator and designated personnel are responsible
for the trouble-free operation of the machine as well as
for clearly establishing who is in charge of installing,
servicing, maintaining and cleaning the machine.
Machines, tools and accessories must be kept out of the
reach of children.
Only authorised and trained personnel may work on and
with the machine. Personnel must be briefed about all
functions and potential dangers of the machine. “Spe-
cialist staff“ is a term that refers to those who – due to
their professional training, know-how, experience, and
knowledge of relevant regulations – are in a position to
assess delegated tasks and recognise potential risks. If
the personnel lack the necessary knowledge for wor-
king on or with the machine, they must first be trained.
Responsibility for working with the machine (installation,
service, maintenance, overhaul) must be clearly defined
and strictly observed. Only those persons who can be
expected to carry out their work reliably may be given
permission to work on or with the machine. Personnel
must refrain from working in ways that could harm
others, the environment or the machine itself. It is absolu-
tely forbidden for anyone who is under the influence of
drugs, alcohol or reaction-impairing medication to work
on or with the machine. When appointing personnel to
work on the machine, it is necessary to observe all local
regulations regarding age and professional status. The
user is also responsible for ensuring that unauthorised
persons remain at a safe distance from the machine.
Personnel are obliged to immediately report any irregu-
larities with the machine that might compromise safety to
the operator.
Following the safety advice and instructions given in this
manual can prevent bodily injury and material
damage while working on and with the machine. Failure
to observe these instructions can lead to bodily injury
and damage to or destruction of the machine. Disregard
of the safety advice and instructions given in this manual
as well as the accident prevention regulations and gene-
ral safety regulations applicable to the operative range
of the machine shall release the manufacturer and their
authorised representatives from any liability and from all
compensation claims.
