SAFETY AND ACCIDENT PREVENTION
2.1
GENERAL INFORMATION
•
The manual must be read entirely and understood by all the operators, who, either full-time
or occasionally, are in charge of installing, running and carrying out maintenance on the
shredder or its dismantling.
•
The employer must ensure the instruction of the personnel on accident risks, on the devices
adopted for the operator's safety, on noise emission risks and on the general accident
prevention regulations stated by international directions and the legislation of the Country
where the machine is received.
•
The behaviours of the personnel in charge of maintenance, cleaning, control work etc., must
however strictly comply with the Accident Prevention Rules of the Country where the
machine is received.
•
The user is responsible for whatever operation carried out incorrectly because the
instructions supplied in this manual were not followed properly and is therefore compelled
to make certain that his personnel have read and understood the contents.
•
The unauthorized tampering or substitution of one or more machine parts, the use of
accessories, tools, or working materials different from those recommended by the
manufacturer, may represent an accident hazard and relieve the manufacturer from any civil
and penal responsibilities.
•
The working area must never be encumbered, so that nothing might interfere with the
operator's freedom of movement, nor prevent his immediate access to the control panel in
the case of an emergency.
•
The access to the work area is forbidden to people not directly responsible for the machine
operation, to avoid hazards caused by imprudence or negligence during the accomplishment
of a work. The user is therefore responsible for providing adequate prevention means such
as barriers, warning and danger plates, etc.
•
The maintenance technician, who has been given the responsibility of the machine
maintenance, is therefore recommended to keep it always free of whatever tool and to
prohibit access to unauthorized people, to be able to obtain the most ideal safety conditions
for working on the machine.
