Customer Responsibilities for Safety
As the user of the
MultiCam
Plasma system, each customer
must
follow all safety procedures that are clearly
outlined when operating each machine and its parts. Failure to do so may result in damage to property or
personnel and could even result in death. These machines are powerful and should always be treated with care.
Customers should make plans for safeguarding themselves and their work areas at the point of operation as all
MultiCam
machines have been designed and constructed to operate under specific parameters relating to the
particular application. As a result, ANSI B-11
Safety Standards
states that “It shall be the responsibility of the
end-user (buyer) to provide, and ensure the use of a guard, guarding device, awareness barrier, awareness device
or shield...” in order to maintain the required level of protection.
MultiCam
has available certain safety shields and guards applicable to our machines. Please contact our office
for styles, types, and prices.
Personal Safety Precautions
All customers should become familiar with all aspects of their machines.
Any person who operates or does any maintenance on this equipment should be aware that safety procedures are
an important part of the daily job. Customers and related personnel should learn how the equipment functions and
be able to respect the capabilities of the machinery. Anyone working on or around the equipment should
understand the potential losses associated with mishandling the machinery and its parts and be able and willing to
follow all safety precautions. Sudden movement, loud noises, horseplay, etc. must be avoided, as such distractions
may result in unsafe conditions.
Accidents can occur if clothing or other articles become entangled in the plasma head or other moving parts of the
machines. The following suggestions, if followed, will reduce the chance of having these types of accidents:
1.
Wear
approved eye and hearing protection
at all times when operating the plasma system.
2.
Restrain long hair with a
cap or net
when near the machines.
3.
Avoid wearing neckties and scarves during machine operation.
4.
