Safety
The following safety advices are helping to avoid personal injuries and property damage. The operator of the dung removal
system has to assure, that general safety advices and regulations are considered and kept. Persons who are responsible
for the systems and the operation, as well as persons who are working with the dung removal system have to read and
understand the entire operating instruction. Inform yourself before the commissioning of the control about the position and
the correct condition of the safety- and protective devices.
Safety and protective devices are:
- Lockable main switch on the control
- Emergency stop button and safety shutdown board*
- Protective coverings and safety grid
3.1. General safety advices
1. Before commissioning the system, after the assembling and repair- and maintenance works, check the
entire assembling and the correct function of all safety and protective devices.
2. Before the maintenance and repair works on the dung removal system you have to switch off the control
and protect against undesired switch on (e.g. lock main switch)
3. Check before every manual start of the scraper drive
- that there are no persons in the working area of the scraper
- that the moving scraper means no danger for persons or animals
It is not allowed to:
- do repair and maintenance works on the system when it is switched on or during the operation
- arbitrary changes on the electronic control or on the components of the dung removal system
- operation methods, which derogate the security of the dung removal system.
- unattended operation of the system, if not all required safety and protective devices are working (see chapter 2.5).
Requirements provided by the customer:
To avoid danger areas between the scraper and solid building parts (e.g. wall breakthrough, doors, piles and parts of the
housing), you have to keep a safety distance of minimum 500 mm over the scraper path. An under usage of this safety
distance you have to clarify with the responsible Employer’s Liability Insurance.
The legal requirements are fully applicable. (e.g. VSG 2.1 § 16)
Technical safeguards for danger areas are e.g. connecting blocks on the danger area, trip wires or limited movement control
of the scraper.
3.2. Behaviour in danger situations
In visible or upcoming danger situations you have to:
- stop the system immediately by the emergency stop button, the STOP-button or by the main switch
- switch off the main switch and protect again undesired switch on (e.g. padlock)
- delete the danger cause or the error immediately
Only after deletion of the danger situation you can restart the operation and the system!
