Safety and Warranty
GUARDS
The guards can consist of a part of the machine specifically used to provide protection through a physical
barrier. Depending on its construction, a guard can be called a casing, cover, screen, etc.
FIXED GUARDS
The fixed guards are considered as such when they feature fixing elements which can only be removed by
using a tool. The following are considered fixed guards:
•
The driving belt’s protection casing placed between the motor and the grater’s pulley.
Before removing the fixed guard, the protected areas must be secured by switching off the power from
the control panels to stop any movement. Replace the guards that have been removed before leaving
the workplace or before resuming work.
INTERLOCKING GUARDS
The interlocking guards are equipped with position sensors that detect whether the guard is open/close and
cause dangerous moving parts to stop (interlocking device) when the guards are opened. Opening the guards
prevents the dangerous moving parts from restarting. The following are considered interlocking guards:
1. The hinged cover of the loading hopper.
2.
The grater’s casing (removable).
3.
The discharging hopper (on sliding guides).
- The movable guards 1 - 2 - 3 are equipped with an interlock device consisting of a safety magnetic sensor
(with control unit located in the control panel).
Do not remove or force the interlocking guards’ position sensors as this may cause the safety devices
to malfunction leading to dangerous situations.
Regularly check the correct functioning of the interlocking devices.
EMERGENCY STOP
Emergency stops are located as below:
•
On the machine’s electrical board.
• On the control panel (upper area) as an emergency stop push button.
The emergency stop push button is equipped with a self-retaining device (once triggered it remains locked in
the open circuit position) that needs to be deliberately reset by an operator after being pushed. Pushing the
emergency button will stop all the machine’s moving parts.
ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT – SAFETY MEASURES
The electrical equipment is made in accordance with the regulations specified in IEC EN 60204-1 standards,
both with regards to the danger of electrocution (direct - indirect contacts), and to the breakdown of the control
circuits that may cause hazardous conditions (e.g. malfunction of a safety device). The main safety measures
are listed below:
