SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The following safety directions must be carefully observed in order to avoid injury to
personnel or damage to the environment or to Hydmaster 40 itself.
Following of these instructions will ensure the safe and uninterrupted use of the machine.
The equipment must not be positioned or use in places where there is a risk
of explosion or hazardous substances.
The equipment must not get wet and it has to be protected from moisture,
vibration and wind.
Foreign objects must not be inserted or fitted into the equipment.
The machine cannot be covered during the operation
The user must ensure that the appliance is adjusted for the task and that the
statutory requirements are met.
1. Avoid contamination of the environment
The machine should be kept as clean as possible. When the shaft is pushing the shaft
back to the drum it should be cleaned with a cloth. After the work has been completed
the brushes and the shell of the cleaning shaft must be cleaned, before transporting
the machine into another location
2. General Safety
It is forbidden to stay in immediate contact with the machine while it is operating.
3. The safety of the operator
The person/persons who are performing the work should use personal protection:
filtered mouth mask, helmet, earmuffs, goggles, overall, protection shoes and other
necessary protective equipment that the task at hand requires.
Hydmaster 40 has a strong rotating force. Clothes or hairs can easily get caught in the
brush and cause damage or accidents. The brush has to be placed always in the
ventilation duct before starting the machine. The machine cannot be used when the
brush is outside the ventilation duct. Due to the great rotating force Hydmaster 40 is
recommended to be used by two persons. One who directs the shaft into the duct, and
another who feeds/draws the shaft and controls the rotation of the brush.
4. The safety of the working environment
Make sure that the lightning, air conditioning, latter and trestles are sufficient. If the
brush generates static electricity or sparks in the duct do not use these types of
brushes in the duct if there are any flammable liquids, gases, dust or other sensitive
substances. Use antistatic brushes and safety ground by following the special
instructions in difficult conditions.
