OPERATING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The ELEPHANT Shot Blasters are constructed according to existing safety rules and
regulations. These technical precautions should not be removed or changed under any
circumstances. While operating the machines the following points should also be kept in mind:
The instructions provided in this manual are done so to ensure the operator’s safety as well
as that of others, the equipment, and the job site. Failure to follow these guidelines can lead to
serious personal injury and even death. The operator and any service personnel should read
and understand the entire manual before working with or servicing any Contec Shot Blaster.
•
Disconnect the machine before commencing any servicing or maintenance work
•
In nearly every part of the ELEPHANT
®
high electrical currents and mechanical forces
are transmitted. The danger of injury is therefore not only from electric shock, but also
from moving parts of the machine.
•
It is necessary to use safety goggles with side protectors and ear plugs. All persons, in
the operating area of the Shot blaster must take these precautions. When switching on,
or lifting the machine during blasting, it is possible that shot escapes at high speed.
Unprotected eyes can be seriously damaged.
•
Never wear loose or poorly fitting clothing. Flapping sleeves may be pulled into the
machine causing serious injury.
•
All rotating parts of the machine are suitably protected by covers, which prevent clothes
or similar from entering the machine. Under no circumstances should these covers be
removed before you switch the machine on.
•
Access by unauthorised persons into the blasting area should be prevented. (Due to a
high risk of slipping on lost shot)
•
The ELEPHANT
®
should be switched off immediately if unusual noises or vibrations are
detected during the operating of the machinery. A thorough check must be carried out in
order to detect the cause.
•
Always pre-check the floor for undulations, steps, stones, screws or other foreign bodies.
It might be necessary to brush, or in extreme cases, vacuum the floor. Wet or oily spots
can make blasting impossible and damage the Dust Collector.
•
Check the power cables regularly as damage may have occurred while operating the
machine or transportation. Always disconnect the cables before examination and treat all
electrical parts with extreme care.
