Machine scrapping
ATTENTION: During machine scrapping one should preserve all
precautions described in chapter 3, also applied during assembly.
As well as assembly, disassembly has to be executed by trained personnel only. All metal
parts should be utilized as metal scrap. In all cases of machine scrapping, the utilization of
all materials has to be conducted according to the rules applied in the country of
installation.
One should also notice that for tax purposes, effective machine scrapping should be
documented in reports and forms according to the rules applied in the installation country.
4.2.1
Fire protection
This machine does not constitute fire hazard. Nevertheless, room in which the balancing
machine is installed, has to fulfill requirements of fire protection regulations applied in the
country of installation.
Always keep one or more portable fire extinguishers within the operator's reach (operator
zone), in order to prevent any fire hazard.
4.2.2
Accident prevention
During lifling/lowering, shifting, installing, assembling and disassembling of the balancing
machine, one should preserve all precautions provided in regulations concerning accident
prevention applied in the installation country. Moreover, all regulations concerning fork-lift
trucks have to be preserved.
4.2.3
Safety designing provided in the wheel balancer
The machine has been equipped with a hood, which protects the operator with revolving
parts of the balancer. The machine has been designed in such manner as not to initiate a
measurement by accident or start one with the hood opened.
Each measurement initiation has to be preceded with pressing the
, button, which
starts only a single measurement (assured by software).
Due to many safety design constructs, it is impossible for the machine to initiate any kind
of measurement sequence on its own.
If any other incidental situations not mentioned in this operating manual occur, the operator
is to immediately stop working with the machine, call authorized service and describe the
problem.
4.2.4
Noise evaluation
Noise emission approximations where conducted in ordinary surroundings for a wheel
wheel balancer using environmental correction, defined and simplified by norm PN-EN
ISO 11202. Measurements where made using a 20” wheel, weight approximately 30kg and
in correct working conditions, i.e. nominal power supply conditions.
Measurements using a calibrated microphone where performed during a period from start
of measurement and reaching maximal rotation speed to turning the drive motor off and
stopping the wheel completely. For evaluation purposes an average from a couple of
maximised measurements has been taken.
Average level of acoustic pressure Lav = 65 dBA
