Danger Zones
Danger zones are the areas of the machine which during operation involve a certain risk for people
owing to mechanical movement. This comprises all areas of the machine which involve rotary
motion, clamping or other movements.
In this connection we indicate the following danger zones:
Manual Work Area with Locating Surface and Unloading Point
The manual work area is located on the left-hand side and the right-hand side of the control
panel and is used for applying the substrate to the pallet as well as unloading it from the
latter. When applying or unloading substrates, operators must always stand in front of and
not between the pallets, in order to prevent getting caught between pallet and print station or
control panel in case of a rotary motion of the carrousel (index).
Area between Two Print Stations
Access to the area between two print stations is barred by safety barriers. This area also
involves the risk of getting caught between a pallet and a print station.
Working/Print Area
The working/printing area involves the risk of getting limbs jammed between the squeegee
carriage and rigid mechanical parts. Do not reach into these zones during the printing
movement.
If any work is to be carried out with or on the machine that requires entering or placing one's hands
into any of the danger zones, one of the following conditions must be met:
1.
The main control switch has been switched OFF.
2.
The EMERGENCY STOP push button has been pressed.
3.
One of the respective safety barriers has been pushed and engaged.
