Constructional changes
Implementation of structural changes
By conversions, changes, and reworking, e.g. additional threads,
holes, or safety devices can impair the functioning or safety of the
product or damage it.
•
Structural changes should only be made with the written
approval of SCHUNK.
Personnel qualification
Assembly and disassembly, commissioning, operation and repair of
the chuck may be performed only by qualified specialists who have
been instructed with respect to safety.
All persons who are assigned to operate, maintain and repair our
chuck must have access to the operating manual, especially the
chapter “Fundamental safety instructions”. We recommend that
the operator create in-house safety operating instructions.
Persons in training may be assigned to machines and technical
equipment in which a chuck is mounted only if they are under the
constant guidance and supervision of qualified specialists.
Organizational measures
Obeying the rules
Via suitable organizational measures and instructions, the
operator must ensure that the relevant safety rules are obeyed by
the persons asked to operate, maintain and repair the chuck.
Checking the behavior of personnel
The operator must at least occasionally check that the personnel
are behaving in a safety conscious manner and are aware of the
potential hazards.
Danger signs
The operator must ensure that the signs concerning safety and
hazards mounted on the machine where the chuck is mounted are
clearly legible and are observed.
Faults
If a fault occurs on the chuck and this fault endangers safety or if a
problem is suspected due to production characteristics, the
machine tool where the chuck is mounted must be immediately
stopped and remain shut down until the fault has been located
and remedied. Only allow specialists to remedy faults.
