2 Safety
2.1 Customer's responsibility
The control unit is used for commercial purposes. The operating com-
pany is thus subject to the legal obligations concerning industrial
safety.
The safety, accident prevention and environmental protection regula-
tions applicable for the area of application of the machine must be
complied with, along with the safety notes specified in this installation
manual. The following applies in particular:
n The customer must become familiar with the industrial safety regu-
lations and identify additional dangers which may arise due to the
specific working conditions at the place of use of the control unit,
by means of a risk analysis. These must be converted into oper-
ating instructions for operation of the control unit.
n Throughout the time of use of the control unit the customer must
check whether the operating instructions created by him corre-
spond to the current status of regulations and standards. When-
ever changes in regulations and standards occur, instructions must
be adapted accordingly.
n The customer must clearly specify the responsibilities for
installation, operation, maintenance, and cleaning.
n The customer must make sure that all employees who have to
work with the control unit have read and understood these oper-
ating instructions.
In addition, the customer must train and inform his personnel about
potential dangers at regular intervals.
Moreover, the customer is also responsible for keeping the control unit
in technically good condition, and therefore the following applies:
n The customer must make sure that the maintenance intervals
specified in these operating instructions are complied with.
n The customer must regularly check all safety features for function
and completeness.
n The customer must supply his personnel with the necessary pro-
tective equipment.
