È SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
FOR WASHER-EXTRACTOR OPERATION
Ê General Safety Requirements
(specific warnings, next page and throughout manual)
Incorrect installation, neglected preventive maintenance, abuse, and/or improper repairs or changes to
the machine can cause unsafe operation and personal injuries, such as multiple fractures, amputations, or
death. The owner or his selected representative (owner/user) is responsible for understanding and ensuring
the proper operation and maintenance of the machine. The owner/user must familiarize himself with the
contents of all machine instruction manuals. The owner/user should direct any questions about these instruc-
tions to a Milnor
®
dealer or the Milnor
®
Service department.
Most regulatory authorities (including OSHA in the USA) hold the owner/user ultimately responsible
for maintaining a safe working environment. Therefore, the owner/user must do the following:
•
recognize all foreseeable safety hazards within his facility and take actions to protect his personnel,
equipment, and facility
•
require that personnel are familiar with all functional and safety aspects of the machine
•
ensure safety devices installed on the machine are in place and properly maintained
•
ensure all machine parts and assemblies are properly maintained.
Ë Laundry Facility
—Provide a supporting floor that is strong and rigid enough to support--with a rea-
sonable safety factor and without undue or objectionable deflection--the weight of the fully loaded machine
and the forces transmitted by it during operation. (For washer-extractors, see “ABOUT THE FORCES
TRANSMITTED BY MILNOR
®
WASHER-EXTRACTORS.”) Provide sufficient clearance for machine
movement. Provide any safety guards, fences, restraints, devices, and verbal and/or posted restrictions nec-
essary to prevent personnel, machines, or other moving machinery from accessing the machine or its path.
Provide adequate ventilation to carry away heat and vapors. Ensure service connections to installed ma-
chines meet local and national safety standards, especially regarding the electrical disconnect (see the Na-
tional Electric Code). Prominently post safety information, including signs showing the source of electrical
disconnect.
Ë Personnel
—Inform personnel about hazard avoidance and the importance of care and common sense.
Provide personnel with the safety and operating instructions that apply to them. Verify that personnel use
proper safety and operating procedures. Verify that that personnel understand and abide by point-of-hazard
tags on the machine and procedure-specific precautions in the instruction manuals.
Ë Safety Devices
—Ensure that no one eliminates or disables any safety device on the machine or in ths
facility. Do not allow machine to be used with any missing guard or cover. Service any failing or malfunc-
tioning device before operating the machine.
Ë Maintenance
—Ensure the machine is inspected and serviced in accordance with the norms of good
practice and with the preventive maintenance schedule. Replace belts, pulleys, brake shoes/disks, clutch
plates/tires, rollers, seals, alignment guides, etc. before they are severely worn. Immediately investigate any
READ BEFORE USING MACHINE!
