2.7 Safety Training
Safety is a primary concern in the design and manufacture of
Wallenstein products. Unfortunately, efforts to provide safe
equipment can be wiped out by a single careless act.
• It is the operator's responsibility to read,
understand, and follow ALL safety and
operating instructions in this manual.
• Train all new personnel and review instructions frequently
with existing personnel. Make sure that only a properly
trained and physically able person uses the machine. A
person who has not read and understood all instructions is
not qualified to use the machine. An untrained operator can
cause serious injury or death to themselves or others.
• Learn the controls and how to stop the machine quickly in
the event of an emergency. For instructions, see
Stopping
in an Emergency on page 22 .
• If the machine is loaned or rented, it is the owner's
responsibility to make sure that, prior to using the machine,
every operator:
-
Reads and understands this manual.
-
Is instructed in the safe and correct use of the
equipment.
-
Understands and knows how to complete the Safe
Condition procedure.
