1.1 PREAMBLE
This user instruction manual is intended to be consulted by anyone employed in any
capacity, who is in charge, and authorised to use and/or operate the plunging arms mixer.
It is also intended for employers, managers and supervisors of the user company, who must
read it carefully and understand it, so they can use it as a valuable support for the fulfilment
of their obligations as required by the current laws and regulations on safety and health in the
workplace.
The employer, of production sites in which the machine is operating, as well as managers and
supervisors, must ensure that operators, employees who have different specific functions,
have adequate information, education and, where appropriate, training (it should be simple and
comprehensible in relation to the degree of acumen that can be reasonably expected of the
person concerned) concerning its proper use and in a safe manner and the general and specific
risks of the workplace and/or job.
To carry out this delicate task this manual can prove to be useful, though, for obvious reasons,
cannot be considered exhaustive as it does not strictly relate to the machine itself.
THE MANUAL IS MADE UP OF SEVERAL SECTIONS:
Instructions for handling, and preparation for operation.
This part, concentrated mainly in Chapter 3, is directed at personnel in charge of handling,
transport, installation and initial commissioning of the machine in the work-room and is designed
to provide all the basics of major importance, with the exception of those that already should
be part of the background of an experienced and/or specialised operator, in order to correctly
perform these operations.
Instructions for use and routine maintenance in safe conditions.
This part, consisting mostly of Chapters 2, 3 and part of Chapters 4 and 5, is directed at the
employer of the staff authorised to use the machine and at the managers and supervisors of the
user company and at the staff itself.
In addition to the user instructions of the machine, it also includes indications for maintenance,
cleaning, and inspection which for simplicity and minimum danger, they do not require special
skills or experience, and can be performed by the operator.
Instructions for extraordinary maintenance.
This part, consisting mostly of the remaining part of Chapters 4 and 5, is directed at the employer
of the staff authorised to use the machine, to managers and supervisors of the user company,
the operating personnel and the specialist staff responsible for carrying out both routine and/or
extraordinary machine maintenance.
It includes some guidelines, important for safety purposes, to be followed for the operations
of maintenance, adjustment, inspection which for complexity and/or danger level require the
intervention of skilled, experienced, professionally trained personnel who possess the technical
and regulatory knowledge for the execution of the work in a safe and workmanlike manner.
Given the necessary specific experience that the staff responsible for such actions must have,
all instructions of a technical nature are omitted that are not critical to the execution of the work
in safety and/or of which, considering the professional profile, said staff cannot fail to be aware
of.
