2. Safety
Do not attempt to sharpen the rotor
knives without proper eye protection.
Sparks that come off the knives during
sharpening can directly reach the eyes,
causing serious injury.
HOW TO ELIMINATE THE RISK:
Never try to sharpen the knives without
protecting the eyes. Wear suitable safety
goggles whenever sharpening the knives.
(Also remember to remove the chain from
the platform so that the feeding drums stop
working during sharpening. For details go to
the topic 'Sharpening the Rotor Knives').
Never approach your legs or feet
on the drums while the machine is
working.
Contact with moving drum knives will cause
very serious injury. Risk of disruption of the
parts in contact with the knives.
HOW TO ELIMINATE THE RISK:
Never approach the feeding area (drums and
knives) while the machine is working. Keep
yourself at a safe distance from the feeding
area.
Caution! The knives, when they are in
motion, are almost imperceptible. Never
approach or attempt to touch the machine
if you are not sure that all components are
completely stopped.
Remember!
After the machine is switched
off, the drums remain in motion for some
time due to inertia. Never approach these
components without being sure they are
completely stopped.
