Possible dangers caused by the metal band saw
The metal band saw has been tested for operational safety. The construction and type are state
of the art.
Nevertheless, there is a residual risk as the metal band saw operates with
electrical voltage and currents,
a circulating saw belt.
We have used construction resources and safety techniques to minimize the health risk to
personnel resulting from these hazards.
If the metal band saw is used and maintained by personnel who are not duly qualified, there
may be a risk resulting from incorrect or unsuitable maintenance of the metal band saw.
INFORMATION
Everyone involved in the assembly, commissioning, operation and maintenance must
be duly qualified,
and strictly follow these operating instructions.
In the event of improper use
there may be a risk to personnel,
the metal band saw and further property might be endangered,
the correct function of the metal band saw may be affected.
Always disconnect the metal band saw from the electrical power supply when performing
cleaning or maintenance works.
WARNING!
The metal band saw may only be used with the safety devices activated.
Disconnect the metal band saw immediately whenever you detect a failure in the safety
devices or when they are not mounted!
All additional devices installed by the operator have to be equipped with the prescribed
safety devices. This is your responsibility being the operating company!
