Constructional changes, attachments or modifications
Modifications and rework (additional threads or bore holes) or
attaching fittings that are not offered as accessories by SCHUNK
may be performed only with permission of SCHUNK. This also
applies to the installation of safety devices.
Personnel qualification
The clamping block must only be installed, removed, started up,
operated and serviced by qualified specialist personnel with the
relevant safety training.
All persons charged with operating, maintaining and servicing the
clamping block must have access to the operating manual,
especially the chapter "Basic safety notes". We recommend that
the operator draw up in-house safety operating instructions.
Trainees may not work on machines and technical equipment in
which a clamping block is installed unless they are supervised at all
times by qualified specialist personnel.
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 clamping
block.
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 clamping block is
mounted are clearly legible and are observed.
Faults
If a fault occurs on the clamping block which endangers safety or if
a problem is suspected due to production characteristics, the
machine where the clamping block is mounted must be
immediately stopped and remain shut down until the fault has
been located and remedied. Only allow specialists to remedy
faults.
