Safety During Maintenance And Repair - Atlas Copco HiLight E2 Manuel D'instructions

17. Avoid overloading the light tower. The light tower
is provided with circuit breakers for overload
protection. When a breaker has tripped, reduce the
concerned load before restarting.
18. Never remove the cover of the output terminals
during operation. Before
disconnecting wires, switch off the load and the
circuit breakers, stop the machine and make sure
that the machine cannot be started inadvertently or
there is any residual voltage on the power circuit.
19. When operating the light tower in Remote or Auto
mode, observe all relevant local legislation.
20. When deploying the light tower mast, keep in
mind following safety precautions:
- Do not deploy the mast unless the machine is
standing on an even surface and the stabilizers
have been fully adjusted.
- Do not deploy the mast in the vicinity of
overhead power cables:
ELECTROCUTION.
- Do not raise the mast with the lights in transport
position.
- Make sure that nobody is standing too close to
the light tower when the mast is being deployed.
- Do not deploy the mast if the wind is stronger
than 80 Km/h, if the light tower is in operation
position (lights not in line with the wheels).

10. When performing any operation involving heat,
flames or sparks on a machine, the surrounding
components shall first be screened with non-
flammable material.
11. Never use a light source with open flame for
inspecting the interior of a machine.
12. When repair has been completed, the machine
shall be barred over at least one revolution for
reciprocating machines, several revolutions for
rotary ones to ensure that there is no mechanical
interference within the machine or driver.
13. Maintenance and repair work should be recorded
in an operator's logbook for all machinery.
Frequency and nature of repairs can reveal unsafe
conditions.
