3. SAFETY
3.1 GENERAL RULES
- In the design and construction phase, the
Manufacturer has paid particular attention to aspects
that can cause risks to the safety and health of
persons interacting with the machine. In addition
to complying with the relevant laws in force, the
Manufacturer has adopted all the “rules of good
manufacturing technique”. The purpose of this
information is to ensure that users pay particular
attention to prevent any risks. However, caution
cannot be substituted. Safety is also in the hands of
all operators who interact with the machine.
- The machine has been manufactured in accordance
with the latest safety regulations; however, it is good
practice to keep in mind that any moving part may
constitute a hazard. It is, therefore, recommended
never to intervene on any moving part.
- The machine has been designed and manufactured
so that all the elements, under the intended operating
conditions, are stable, allowing its use without the
risk of overturning, falling or unexpected movement.
- Read the instructions in the manual provided
carefully, as well as those applied directly to the
machine, complying, in particular, with those
regarding safety. Time taken to read the instructions
will prevent unwanted accidents; it is always too late
to remember what should have been done when it
has already happened.
- Pay attention to the meaning of the symbols on the
affixed labels; their shape and colour are significant
for safety purposes. Ensure they remain legible and
comply with the information indicated.
- Do not tamper with, circumvent, eliminate or bypass
the installed safety devices. Failure to comply with
this requirement may pose serious risks to the safety
and health of persons.
- Personnel who carry out any type of intervention,
throughout the life of the machine, must possess
specific technical skills, expertise and experience
acquired and recognised in the specific sector.
- Failure to comply with these requirements may result
in damage to the safety and health of persons.
- During operation, wear only the clothing and/or
personal protective equipment indicated in the
instructions for use provided by the Manufacturer
and those required by the current laws on safety in
the workplace.
- During normal use or for any intervention, ensure that
the perimeter areas, in particular those with access
to the controls, are adequately guarded against risks
to the safety and health of persons.
- Some steps may require the help of one or more
assistants. In these cases, these personnel should
be properly trained and instruction about the type of
activity to be carried out to prevent harm to the safety
and health of persons.
- All transportation, installation, use, routine and
unscheduled maintenance work of the machine must
be carried out by specialised personnel as indicated
in the relevant paragraphs.
- The machine must only be used by qualified
personnel and by the number of operators indicated
in the relevant paragraphs.
- The operators in charge of using and servicing
the machine must wear CLOTHING suited to the
workplace and situation in which they are working; in
particular, they must avoid wearing baggy clothing,
chains, bracelets, rings or anything else that may get
caught in the moving parts.
- Before starting work, the personnel must be aware
of the exact position and operation of all the controls
and characteristics of the machine.
- During all maintenance, repair or adjustment
operations, a warning sign should be displayed
on the control panel of the machine or on the
main power supply switch (as appropriate); the
aforementioned sign should bear the following
indication: ATTENTION! DO NOT TOUCH - SERVICE
PERSONNEL AT WORK.
- Do not modify machine parts for any reason (such
as couplings, holes, finishes, etc.) to adapt them to
other devices; in the event of malfunction due to a
failure to comply with the above, Cedax srl shall not
be liable for the consequences. We recommend that
you request any modifications directly by technical
support service .
