2.2.5  Risks due to the rams

WARNING

While the rams are lifting, the moving components can crush your fingers, 

hands or other parts of the body.

 

Do not reach between the follow plate and the material drum, the tra-

verse and cylinder cover of the pneumatic cylinder or the clamping piece 

and the cylinder cover of the pneumatic cylinder.

WARNING
While the rams are lifting, loose clothing can get between the follow plate or 

the follow cover and the material drum or catch on other moving components 

or be pulled upwards.

 

Wear tight-fitting working clothes that are not very tear-resistant, that 

have tight-fitting sleeves and no protruding parts.

WARNING
While the rams are lifting, the moving components can cause crushing or 

impact injuries.

 

While the rams are lifting, nobody must be in the lifting area.

WARNING
Accidental starting of the rams can result in crushing and impact injuries.

 

Each time work is interrupted, set the ram control levers to the “Stop” 

position.

WARNING
Objects placed on the rams may fall down during a stroke movement and 

cause injuries.

 

Never place any objects on the rams!
