CHAPTER 4 - Safety
4.3.3
POWER DISCONNECTION
Please refer to chapter 6 for comprehensive information on disconnecting the power supplies used in the machine.
4.4
RESIDUAL RISKS
Hazardous areas or parts have been assessed in the design stage, consequently all the required precautions have been taken to avoid risks for
persons and damage to machine components, as indicated in the previous paragraphs.
CAUTION
Periodically check the operation of all safety devices.
Do not disassemble the machine's fi xed or removable guards.
Do not introduce foreign objects or tools into the machine's operation area.
Although the machine is equipped with the above mentioned safety systems, certain risks remain which cannot be eliminated but may be reduced
through corrective actions by the end customer and through correct operating methods, which are mandatory for whoever operates the machine.
Below is a summary of the risks remaining in the machine during:
•
Normal operation
•
Adjustment and setting up
•
Maintenance
•
Cleaning.
4.4.1
IMPACT AND CRUSHING:
•
Crushing and entrapment hazard between the PE (Polyethylene) hose and the reel. Do not let any part of your body come into contact with the
area between the hose and the reel during machine operation. Ensure no unauthorised person can come into contact with the machine.
•
Entrainment and crushing hazard between the reel support upright and the reel when it is rotating. This risk may be incurred during hose
unwinding. Always ensure there are no persons in contact with the machine and that the work area is not accessible to unauthorised persons.
•
Do not access moving parts of the machine.
•
Before connecting the power sources, ensure no maintenance operations are under way on the machine.
•
Residual pressure may be present on actuator components (engine, cylinders, gears, coil, etc.) and on piping, which in the event of operations
on the component might lead to hazardous situations. Before any operation it is therefore necessary to discharge the
fl uid circuit and disconnect
the supply source.

4.4.2
SHEARING:
•
Risk of shearing may occur mainly due to the operator going near the machine while parts are in motion.
•
The hazard is greater in the event that any guards and casings protecting from moving parts have been removed.
•
Before connecting the power source ensure there are no machine maintenance operations under way and that all guards are on and securely
fastened to the machine.
•
The same risk occurs during maintenance of the machine's piping unless the fl uid power has been previously turned off.
CAUTION
It is strictly forbidden to remove the safety guards or to open parts of the machine fi tted with inspection hatches secured by
fastening screws prior to disconnecting the machine's fl uid power supply.
Do not introduce foreign objects or tools into the machine's operation area.
Residual Risks
Protection Equipment
4.4.3
FIRE:
In the event of any faults, the plastic material used (e.g. sheaths, electrical wires) is self-extinguishing and complies with applicable Standards.
The raw materials used on the unit are usually fl ammable. The customer must implement all the required fi re prevention measures. In particular, the
following recommendations should be adhered to:
•
Do not smoke near the machine.
•
Do not use naked fl ames.
•
Keep the machine clean from any accumulated dust.
•
Do not perform any welding/grinding operations and/or entailing production of sparks near the machine.
The machine is not equipped with its own fi re system since it is to be used in an outdoor agricultural setting.
The user must assess the need for an appropriate fi re system at the site where the machine and its units are used, in compliance with the safety and
fi re prevention standards in force in the country of use and with internal regulations.
