Operation 08/05
6 Operation
Linear movements with great force can be produced with the
MULI
and
JUMBO
worm gear
screw jacks. Attachments on the power bridges can cause injuries, e.g. crushing of limbs or
damage due to collision with other machine parts. Therefore, be extremely careful during
start-up.
During operation, occasionally check that the worm gear screw jack works properly (noise
and mechanical clearance).
Operating and supervising staff are obliged to check the linear units and the machines at least
once per shift to detect any external signs of damage or faults. Report immediately any
changes (including operating performance) that impair safety.
7 Malfunctioning
If the linear unit malfunctions, qualified staff must check the operating sequences and repeat
start-up if necessary. In particular, follow the instructions in Chapter 5 "Initial start-up" to
prevent injuries and damage.
