2-003 Risks According to EN 292-2
The Ecopress hinge drilling machine is built according to current state of technology and known
safety and technical directives. Still, risks remain for the life and health of the operator or of
third parties, as well as damage to the machine and other property.
Remaining risks consists of:
- Caution: even when the main switch is turned off, the machine can move if the start button is
activated
- operation of the machine by unqualified personnel
- operation of the machine without the required and recommended safety devices
- inappropriate tooling or improper installation or attachment of tooling
- the placement of the operator’s second hand during drilling, inserting and installing of machine parts
- additional person(s) being in the area of the operating machine
- contact with a machine which has not been turned off and secured in the proper manner
- not maintaining the machine properly as described in chapter 7-0 ”Operating the Ecopress”
- malfunctioning of the control elements.
These remaining risks can be prevented by adhering to the information found in chapter 2-0 and 7-0.
2-004 Safety Devices
Safety devices, information about dangers, etc. serve to ensure safety and may not, in any case be removed or
be made inoperable.
- The main switch, which can be turned off to prevent unauthorized start-ups, must be turned off
during adjustment and set-up processes.
- The pneumatic filter reducing regulator prevents the machine from overloading (see chapter 4-006).
- For thermal overload protection of the motor, see chapter 4-007.
- Controllable back pressure valve, which is directly on the main cyclinder, prevents the machine from descending in
the event the compressed air is lost. The valve is first opened when the start button is activated
(see ”Pneumatic Wiring Diagram” chapter 4-006).
- The motor first runs when the machine is changed from the feed position to the forward operating speed.
- The motor does not run during the insertion.
- The integrated dust collection system protects personnel from fine dust and simultaneously also protects one from
injury by the drill.
