SAFETY
When using the machine, one must be aware of the fact that drive mechanisms (rotary motion),
high voltage components, as well as parts subject to high temperatures may cause serious damage
to persons and things.
Persons in charge of plant safety must make sure that:

any incorrect use or handling is avoided;

safety devices are not removed or tampered with;

the machine is regularly serviced;

only original spare parts are used especially as far as those components with safety functions
are concerned (ex.: protection microswitches, thermostats);

suitable personal protective equipment is worn;

attention is paid during hot product cycling.
To achieve the above, the following is necessary:

at the work station an instruction manual relevant to the machine should be available;

such documentation must be carefully read and requirements must consequently be met;

The appliance is only to be installed in locations where its use and maintenance is restricted
to trained personnel.

only adequately skilled personnel should be assigned to electrical equipment; this appliance is
not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety;

Make sure that no technician will ever carry out interventions outside his own knowledge and
responsibility sphere;

Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
IMPORTANT!
Make sure that the staff does not carry out any operation outside their own sphere of knowledge
and responsibility (refer to “Symbology qualification of the staff”).
NOTE:
According to the standard in force, a QUALIFIED ENGINEER is a person who, thanks to:
- training, experience and education,
- knowledge of rules, prescriptions and interventions on accident prevention,

is able to recognise and avoid any danger and who has also been allowed by the person in
charge of plant safety to carry out all kinds of interventions.
