3 Handling of the equipment
The bow punch is state-of-the-art and in accordance with the relevant safety regulations at time of placing on the market, and with regards to its inten-
ded application.
The "Quick-Press 300 hydraulic" and the "Quick-Press 300 hydraulic with punch center point indicator" have an EC Declaration of Conformity (see
attachment) and comply with the requirements as stipulated in the Machinery Directive 2006/24/EC.
The "Quick-Press 300 hydraulic, manually operated" does not fall within the scope of the Directive 2006/24/EC and hence does not require a declaration
of conformity.
We reserve technical modifications as part of further developments of the machine.
3.1 Intended use
The bow punch Quick-Press 300 has been developed for the rapid punching of round and shaped holes in steel, stainless steel, and aluminum sheets.
Under certain conditions, also some plastics can be cut (soft plastics with sharp cutting heads). In such a case, prior trials are required.
The use of the bow punch must follow along with the guidelines of this manual.
Each and every inappropriate usage are considered unauthorized handling and therefore outside of the manufacturer's limit of liability.
Approved authorized applications:
Work on:
•
Mounting plates
•
Junction boxes
•
Enclosures
•
Wireways etc...
3.2 Predictable misuse / improper handling
With every modification of the machine and with predictable misuse or improper handling of the bow punch the EC-certificate of conformance ceases to
exist and with that the operating license.
Predictable misuse / improper handling:
•
Outdoor use
•
Unsecured use
•
Use with blunt tooling
•
Incorrectly executed repairs
•
Non-intended use
3.3 Residual risks
Not all risk could be avoided structurally without confinement of its intended use. The residual risks of the bow punch have been analyzed with a risk
assessment.
Possible residual risks that cannot be avoided structurally could be:
•
Bruises through tilting over equipment during the installation
•
Bruises through falling of large, heavy work pieces
•
Bruises or cutting of limbs through disregard of this operating manual
•
Bursting of a hydraulic hose
•
Slipping on oil through hydraulic leak
•
Unintended operation / turning-on of equipment
•
Pinching of fingers during the pumping (only with hand pump design)
•
Cutting injuries through tools or sharp sheet metal
Residual risks can be avoided by doing the following:
