Requirements You Must Meet
When Installing and Using the Wintriss Clutch/Brake Control
The Wintriss Clutch/Brake Control (WPC 1000) is designed solely for controlling operation of part-revolution metal
stamping presses. Before installing or using WPC 1000, be sure you understand and follow these requirements:
DANGER
!
FULL REVOLUTION MECHANICAL POWER PRESSES AND OTHER MACHINES CANNOT BE STOPPED IN MID-
STROKE OR MID-CYCLE
DO NOT use WPC 1000 clutch/brake control on full-revolution clutched machinery or other equipment that cannot be
stopped at any point in its stroke or cycle.
Use WPC 1000 clutch/brake control only on part-revolution clutched mechanical power presses as defined in OSHA
1910.217 (b) (7). Refer also to ANSI B11.1-2009.
Use WPC 1000 clutch/brake control only on rotating machinery that can be stopped at any point in its stroke or cycle.
Failure to comply with these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
DANGER
!
IMPROPER SAFEGUARDING
Ensure that the press on which WPC 1000 clutch/brake control is used meets all of the OSHA and ANSI regulations
for safeguarding press systems in installation and use. WPC 1000 is not in itself a safeguarding device. Wintriss
takes no responsibility for injury if safeguarding devices are not installed or working properly.
Install any two-hand control used as a safety device at least the safety distance away from the hazardous area; safety
distance is defined in the OSHA and ANSI regulations. Verify at each shift change that any moveable two-hand
control used as a safety device is located at least the safety distance away from the hazardous area.
Install any light curtain or curtains at least the safety distance away from the hazardous area; safety distance is
defined in the OSHA and ANSI regulations.
Install other safeguarding devices as needed to ensure operator safety. Follow the machine guarding requirements of
OSHA standard 1910.217 and any other regulations and standards that apply. Test safeguarding devices for correct
installation and operation after installation and after any modification or repair.
Ensure that guarding is properly installed to prevent access to the machine over, under or around any guarding
device.
Failure to comply with these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
DANGER
!
MORE OPERATORS THAN OPERATOR STATIONS
Ensure that there are the same number of active Operator Stations as there are operators, if the press is not equipped
with properly installed and operating light curtains.
During setup, lockout/tagout the press if there are more operators than Operator Stations.
Verify at every shift change that there are the same number of active Operator Stations as there are operators, if the
press is not equipped with properly installed and operating light curtains.
FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THESE INSTRUCTIONS WILL RESULT IN DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY.
DANGER
!
NON-SAFETY OUTPUTS USED FOR SAFETY FUNCTIONS
Use auxiliary outputs and cam channels for non-safety functions only. They cannot protect personnel from a moving
hazard.
Failure to comply with these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
