Maintenance Safety
Good maintenance improves safety. A good mainte-
nance program improves awareness of potential hazards
and reduces the risks of equipment failure, which may
contribute to accidents.
Safety comes before machine performance. Do not let
the urgency of getting the machine back in working con-
dition jeopardize people’s safety.
To work on the machine safely:
1.
Turn off the engine.
2.
Turn off the battery disconnect switch and remove
the key.
3.
Close the cover, lock and tag out the battery discon-
nect switch.
4.
Tell your supervisor and area workers that you are
entering the machine.
5.
Have someone stand by the machine while you are
inside.
•
Do not clean or lubricate any rotating or moving
parts while the engine is running.
•
Do not work on or around any mechanical drive
units or any rotating or moving parts, such as
sheaves, chains, or belts when the machine is run-
ning.
•
Comply with your local and state safety codes.
Be aware always of the following warnings:
1

Pinch point.
Do not place yourself or any part of your body
under any pivoting component without first
installing safety pins or support devices.

death. Keep these devices maintained.
1

Keep clear of all moving parts such as pulleys
and conveyors while the machine is running.

attention.
1
WARNING
Crushing or pinching hazard.
Keep hands clear of the moving parts in the com-
pression roll housing. If stray material has
blocked the normal movement of the housing,

Crushing or pinching hazard.
Keep hands clear of the moving parts of the anvil
