Notes on particular risks
This product may pose a danger to persons and property if, for
example:
• It is not used as intended;
• It is not installed or maintained properly;
• The safety and installation instructions, local applicable
safety and accident prevention regulations or the EC Machinery
Directive are not observed.
DANGER
Possible risk of fatal injury to operating personnel due to the
workpiece falling down or being flung out in the event of a
power failure!
In the event of a power failure, the chuck's clamping force may
fail immediately and the workpiece may be released in an
uncontrolled manner. This poses a risk of death or injury to
the operating personnel and can result in serious damage to the
system.
• Due to the carried out and documented danger assessment
and risk evaluation, the machine manufacturer and its
operator have to ensure that appropriate measures have
been taken in order to maintain the clamping force of the
chuck until the machine's standstill, and to secure the
workpiece correspondingly (e.g. via a crane or a suitable
hoist).
• The machines and facilities must fulfill the minimum
requirements of the EC Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC;
specifically, they must have effective technical measures to
protect against possible mechanical hazards.
