SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Although the Gullco cantilevered welding positioner is manufactured for safe and dependable
operation, it is impossible to anticipate those combinations of circumstances, which could result in
an accident. An operator of the cantilevered welding positioner is cautioned to always practice
"
Safety First
" during each phase of operation, setup and maintenance.
Read and understand the whole operation manual (including the supplementary GSP control
manual, “GD-031”) before operating or performing service of this equipment. Become familiar with
the machines operation, applications and limitations. Keep the operation manual in a clean and
readily available location.
This equipment is normally used to automate / semi-automate welding or cutting processes. These
processes usually have any combination of the following; bright and hot arcs, flying sparks, fumes,
ultraviolet and infrared radiated energy, hot work-pieces, compressed gases, etc.. The onus is on
the operator of this equipment to know, understand and follow all the safety precautions associated
with the process being used.
A careless operator invites troubles, and failure to follow safety practices may cause serious injury
or even death. Important safety precautions are given in the following:
Electrical Shock Prevention
Do not use this equipment in damp or wet locations.
Do not expose this equipment to rain.
Never carry this equipment by the cables or pull the cables to disconnect from the
receptacle.
Keep all cables from heat, oil and sharp edges.
Inspect all cables periodically and replace if damaged.
Inspect the secureness of all cables periodically and repair if loose.
Disconnect the power cord when not in use.
Disconnect the power cord
positively
to prevent electrical shock before repair and service
of the equipment.
Bodily Injury Prevention
Do not wear loose clothing, jewellery and loose, long hair, which may get caught into
automatic systems or moving parts.
Ensure that the cantilevered positioner is
well
secured to the bench, tabletop, etc., to
prevent it from tipping over when subjected to over hung loading.
Never loosen the tilt-locking lever, nor try to tilt the rotary welding table, when there is a load
mounted to the table generating large radial moments.
Keep hands away from the rotary table when it is in motion, or when there is the slightest
possibility of motion.
Wherever possible, avoid mounting devices, etc., that protrude from the rotating mass, and
pose possible pinch-points.
Make certain that work-piece/mounting device protrusions will not strike the floor, positioner
frame or any other object during rotation.
There should only ever be one (1) operator working at the machine at any given time.
