The reader of this document must interpret the term “Manual”, in relation to the KOALA LP, as a reference
to this Installation, Use and Maintenance Manual.
The operations described in section 1.1 must be performed by personnel who are qualified for the specific
tasks. The qualification level refers to the activities for which the operator is authorised according to the
manufacturer’s indications.
Qualification 1
The personnel classified under this qualification level have not received specific training, but are authorised
to perform simple operations inherent to the use of the LP. This qualification authorises the operator to
perform installation, adjustment, routine maintenance and special maintenance interventions.
Qualification 2
Personnel with specific training for the performance of electrical interventions. This qualification authorises
the operator to perform installation, adjustment, routine maintenance and special maintenance
interventions. The training activities inherent to the operations listed above are carried out through training
courses with GLOBALJIG Technicians, as well as through the in-depth study of this manual.
Qualification 3
Personnel with specific training regarding electronically assisted Automatic Machinery, in charge of
performing electrical interventions. This qualification authorises the operator to perform installation,
adjustment, routine maintenance and special maintenance interventions. The training activities inherent to
the operations listed above are carried out through training courses with GLOBALJIG Technicians, as well
as through the in-depth study of this manual. To this end, the operator must be trained, through the careful
study of this Installation, Use and Maintenance Manual, for the use of the controls found on the KOALA’s
control unit. The manual contains notes which serve to draw the user’s/operator’s attention to a specific
procedure or particular operation.
Three types of notes can be found:
NOTE: these are warnings which serve to guide and optimise the operator’s actions, or else to
better highlight certain characteristics of the KOALA.
