CHAPTER 2 

Safety and Accident Prevention

 

 
 
The 

Brobo Group 3M Drill 

has been designed and manufactured in accordance to Australian Standards.  It is 

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

 that the instructions and warnings contained in this chapter be carefully followed for 

correct usage of the machine. 
 

2.1 

Operation of the Machine 

 
The 

Brobo Group 3M Drill 

is specifically design to drill through ferrous metal cross sections with thin-walled or 

‘plate’ profiles.  Other types of material and machining are not compatible for use with the specifications of the 
drill. 

This machine involves high-speed revolutions; therefore extreme caution is required when operating 

the device.

 

 
The employer is responsible for instructing the personnel who, in turn, are obliged to inform the operator of any 
accident  risks,  safety  devices,  noise  emission  and  accident  prevention  regulations  provided  for  by  national  and 
international laws governing the use of the machine.  

The operator must be perfectly aware of the position 

and functions of all the machine’s controls. 

 

All  those  concerned  must  strictly  adhere  to  ALL  instructions,  warnings  and  accident  prevention 
standards in this manual.  

 
The following definitions are those provided for by the

 

EEC DIRECTIVE ON MACHINERY No. 98/37/CE

 

 

Danger Zone - 

any zone in and/or around a machine in which the presence of a person constitutes a risk 

for the safety and health of that person. 

 

 

Person Exposed

 - any person finding him or herself, either completely or partly in a danger zone. 

 

 

Operator -

 the person or persons given the responsibility of installing, operating, adjusting, maintaining,     

 

cleaning, repairing and transporting the machine. 

 

 

2.1.1  Noise Level

 

 
The noise level of an idling drill unit has been measured to be 

below 85

 

dBA

.

  This complies with the 

Australian 

Occupational Health and Safety (Noise) Regulations 1992

.

 

 

Please  note  that  peak  impulse  noise  levels  will  be  experienced  due  to  variables  including  drill  characteristics, 
type,  and  condition.    This  will  also  vary  accordingly  depending  on  the  size  and  type  of  sample  being  drilled.  
Under  these  circumstances,  management  should  make  available  to  the  operator(s)  the  appropriate  hearing 
protection equipment as prescribed under the above stated act.
