Residual risks
The roller & measuring conveyor is built according to the latest state of the art and the recognised safety rules.
Nevertheless, the use of the roller & measuring conveyor may cause danger to life and limb of the user or third
parties or damage to the roller & measuring conveyor and other equipment. Due to the construction of the roller
& measuring conveyor, the following residual risks can occur even when used as intended and despite compli-
ance with all relevant safety regulations:
The operating personnel must read and apply the operating manual. Furthermore, the operating
manuals of additional third-party components must be observed.
Be alert to possible crushing hazards:
a) when transporting the roller conveyor by forklift truck: between forks & pallet / roller conveyor
b) when picking up the roller conveyor: between roller & measuring conveyor / pallet and floor
c) when lowering the roller conveyor: between roller conveyor and fixed equipment
In addition, be aware of possible crushing hazards when setting down the roller conveyor (from the
freight pallet to the ground) using a forklift truck. Wearing protective gloves and safety shoes is man-
datory when transporting and setting up the roller & measuring conveyor.
Toxic exhaust gases are produced by forklift trucks or comparable vehicles with combustion engines.
Generally wear a respiratory protection mask in working environments with the above-mentioned ex-
haust gas development.
Be aware of the danger from falling objects such as workpieces, tools or similar. Therefore wear safety
shoes, especially when transporting and setting up the roller & measuring conveyor.
Climbing or sitting on the roller & measuring conveyor during a lifting operation (by means of forklift
truck or overhead crane) is strictly prohibited. There is a danger of falling!
Increased risk of injury or even death. Entering the danger zone under a suspended load during
transport or installation by means of a forklift truck is prohibited!
Generally wear a safety helmet in
working environments with suspended loads.
Increased risk of injury or even death. It is forbidden to enter the forklift platform during transport or
installation!
Unauthorised persons are not allowed to enter the installation area of the roller & measuring con-
veyor. Compliance with this regulation is the responsibility of the operator.
Danger of electric shock on models with digital position indicator! Work on the electrical components
may only be carried out by qualified personnel.
Be aware of possible tripping and slipping hazards on the floor. Prevent possible hazards by keeping
the floor dry and clean and by using anti-slip floor coverings around the roller & measuring conveyor.
Risk of injury due to crushing, jamming as a result of reaching between moving parts! There is an in-
creased risk of accidents with loss of limbs or even death. Observe the handling instructions and fol-
low the warnings! Wear protective gloves if necessary.
Risk of injury from compressed air components! Do not exceed the permissible operating pressure
(max. 6 bar)! Wear protective goggles when handling compressed air.
When using additional machines on the roller & measuring conveyor, read the respective operating
manual of the machine used beforehand and comply with the safety instructions contained therein.
Be aware of the fire hazard during the processing of wood due to wood dust, in connection with fly-
ing sparks and/or open fire!
