2.4
Electrical hazards
Before doing any work on the AAF equipment make sure that all potential
electrical hazards have been identified and that all electric current connected to
the equipment, and to any connected or associated equipment, has been properly
disconnected and securely locked-out to prevent accidental reconnection prior to
completion of the work. All electrical work shall be done in full accordance with the
current edition of NFPA 70, the National Electrical Code, and all other applicable
laws, rules, and regulations. All electrical work shall be performed by a licensed
electrician. Only original AAF parts shall be used as replacements for ongoing
maintenance and repair.
2.5
Rotating equipment
The RotoClone W acts as a dust collector and as a fan. The impeller may
rotate at nominal speeds approaching 3600 rpm and has the potential to cause
severe injury. The collector’s impeller can be accessed through the collector from
the air inlet if the ductwork is removed, from the outside of the collector through
the collector discharge, and through various access panels. All due care should be
exercised to avoid any contact with the operating collector’s impeller. Under no
circumstances should the collector ever be allowed to operate when any of the
access panels on the dust collector have been removed. The fan must be
disconnected and locked out prior to the performance of any maintenance work,
see paragraph 2.4.
2.6
Safety guards
The dust collector housing prevents access to the impeller blades. All access
panels and the inlet duct shall remain bolted in place while the collector is
operating. Prior to the removal of any access panels, the electrical power to the
collector shall be disconnected and locked out, see paragraphs 2.4 and 2.5.
After electrical power is disconnected, the impeller will continue to rotate for
a period of time before coasting to a stop.
Multiple outlet options are available at the outlet of the RotoClone W. These
outlet options are bolted to the outlet flange of the collector. Under no
circumstances should these be removed while the collector is in operation or when
there is electrical power connected to the dust collector.
