Residual Risks
The machine is built according to the latest state of the art and the recognised safety rules. Nevertheless, the
use of the machine may cause danger to life and limb of the user or third parties or damage to the machine and
other equipment. Due to the construction of the machine, the following residual risks can occur even when used
as intended and despite compliance with all relevant safety regulations:
Reading and applying the operating manual is mandatory for the operating personnel.
Be alert to possible crushing hazards:
a) when transporting the machine by forklift truck
→
between forks & pallet / machine
b) when picking up the machine
→
between machine / pallet and floor
c) when lowering the machine
→
between machine and fixed equipment
Be alert to possible crushing hazards when lowering the machine (from the cargo pallet to the
floor) with a forklift truck or overhead crane.
Make sure that no objects fall from the forklift truck / crane.
Do not leave any objects / tools on the machine.
It is strictly prohibited to ride on the machine during a lifting operation (with the indoor crane or
forklift). There is a danger of falling!
Unauthorised persons are not allowed to enter the installation area of the machine
(responsibility of the operator).
Be aware of possible tripping and slipping hazards on the floor. Prevent possible hazards by keep-
ing the floor dry and clean and by using anti-slip floor coverings around the machine.
Be aware of the danger from falling objects such as workpieces, tools or similar. Therefore, wear
safety shoes, especially when transporting and setting down the machine.
Pay attention to the existing danger of being cut by the bandsaw blade. Never reach into the run-
ning bandsaw blade! Use pushing devices for short and thin workpieces. Wear protective gloves
when changing the saw blade.
Be aware of the danger of snow from chips and splinters and never remove them from the danger
area by hand. Use suitable aids, e.g. hand brushes.
Danger of cutting and drawing in! Do not clean the bandsaw blade or bandsaw roller with a brush
or scraper held in your hand while the machine is running.
Danger of cutting and drawing in! In case of a broken bandsaw blade or belt, wait until the machine
has come to a complete standstill and only then open the separating safety device.
Be aware of a possible danger of being drawn in by moving machine parts or tools. This can cause
pieces of clothing or hair to be caught. Always wear tight-fitting clothing and a hair net if necessary.
Generally avoid jewellery, loose clothing and untied long hair.
Danger from electric shock! There are hazards when working on the electrical system.
This work must only be carried out by qualified personnel!
Danger from electric shock! It is strictly forbidden to bypass safety devices (e.g. safety switches).
Electrical equipment must be maintained and cleaned regularly.
Pay attention to the danger of crushing on workpiece guides and moving machine parts.
Make sure that no unauthorised persons are in the area of the machine.
Be aware of the risk of injury from flying tool parts in the event of tool breakage.
Therefore wear protective goggles.
Be aware of the risk of injury from flying workpiece parts and chips, splinters and dust coming out
of the machine. Therefore wear protective goggles.
Be aware of the increased noise emission and wear hearing protection.
Be aware of the increased dust generation. Use the extraction system and wear a dust mask if
necessary.
