3. Safety
Pneumatic energy through the supply connection on the machi-
ne frame. Make sure that all machine components are depressu-
rised and any stored energy is dissipated. As part of the installa-
tion process, the owner will provide a mechanical main cock at
which the machine can be disconnected from the compressed air
supply.
Warning
Risk of injury from releasing jammed compo-
nents
On releasing a jam, pneumatic cylinders cont-
rolled by valves can produce unexpected residual
movements and injure persons present in the
hazard zone!
When releasing jams, pay attention to the di-
rection of movements and the area in which the
jammed unit may be working in!
Do not reach into or stand in the direction of
movement and possible working area.

3.3 Safety advice for the user company

All persons entrusted with operating the machine (including
line managers) must familiarise themselves with the section on
"Safety advice".
The safety advice must be followed.
The machine must only be operated if it is in proper working
order.
The user company will issue clear responsibilities, e.g. for servi-
cing, cleaning or repair, and ensure that the persons carrying out
this type of work have received the training necessary for it.
The safety regulations applicable in the owner's country must
also be observed. Refrain from any work that adversely affects
operating safety.
The operating personnel will check the machine for changes or
malfunctions, report such to the safety officer responsible and, if
necessary, take the machine out of operation.
Only appropriate tools must be used for the work that needs to
be done; remove tools after completing work.
The place at which staff work must be selected in such a way as
to ensure that work operations can be viewed at all times, the
machine can always be stopped immediately and safety is never
at risk.
