Important Safety Instruction
This part of the Instruction Material is provided for the safe use of your
equipment. It contains important information to help work safely with your
machine and describes the dangers inherent in machinery. Some of these
dangers are obvious, while others are less evident.
Mandatory Information
All persons working on the machine should read and understand all parts of the Safety
Instructions. This applies, in particular, for persons who only work on the machine occasionally
(e.g. for maintenance and repair). Persons who have difficulty reading must receive particularly
thorough instruction.
Scope of the Instruction Material
•The Instruction Material comprises:
•Safety information
•Operator Instructions
•Electrical and Pneumatic diagrams
And may also include;
•A list of recommended spare parts
•Serial Bus Control system Operator instructions
•Instruction Manual(s) for components made by other manufacturers
•The layout and installation diagram containing information for installation
Intended Use
Our machines are designed and built in line with the state of the art and the accepted safety
rules. However, all machines may endanger the life and limb of their users and/or third parties
and be damaged or cause damage to other property, particularly if they are operated
incorrectly or used for purposes other than those specified in the Instruction Manual.

Technical Manual & Part List
Technical Manual & Part List Page 7
Exclusion of Misuse
Non-conforming uses include, for example, using the equipment for
something other than it was designed for, as well as operation without
duly installed safety equipment. The risk rests exclusively with the end
user.
Conforming use of the machine includes compliance with the technical data, information and
regulations in all parts of the complete Instruction Material, as well as compliance with the
maintenance regulations. All local safety and accident prevention regulations must also be
observed.
Liability
The machine should only be operated when in perfect working order, with due regard for safety
and the potential dangers, as well as in accordance with the Instruction Material. Faults and
malfunctions capable of impairing safety should be remedied immediately. We cannot accept
any liability for personal injury or property damage due to operator errors or non-compliance
with the safety instructions contained in this booklet. The risk rests exclusively with the end
user.
The Instruction Material should always be kept near the machine so that it is accessible to all
concerned.
The local, general, statutory and other binding regulations on accident prevention and
environmental protection must also be observed in addition to the Instruction Material. The
operating staff must be instructed accordingly. This obligation also includes the handling of
dangerous substances and provision/use of personal protective equipment.
The Instruction Material should be supplemented by instructions, including supervisory and
notification duties with due regard for special operational features, such as the organization of
work, work sequences, the personnel deployed, etc.

Technical Manual & Part List
Technical Manual & Part List Page 8
The personnel's awareness of the dangers and compliance with the safety regulations should be
checked at irregular intervals.
Choice and Qualification of Personnel
Ensure that work on the machine is only carried out by reliable persons who have been
appropriately trained for such work - either within the company, by our field staff or at our
office - and who have not only been duly appointed and authorized, but are also fully familiar
with the local regulations. Work on the machine should only be carried out by skilled personnel,
under the management and supervision of a duly qualified engineer.
This not only applies when the machine is used for production, but also for special work
associated with its operation (start-up and maintenance), especially when it concerns work on
the pneumatic or electrical systems, as well as on the software/serial bus system.
Training
Everyone working on or with the machine should be duly trained and informed with regard to
correct use of the safety equipment, the foreseeable dangers which may arise during operation
of the machine and the safety precautions to be taken. In addition, the personnel should be
instructed to check all safety mechanisms at regular intervals.
Responsibilities
Clearly define exactly who is responsible for operating, setting-up, servicing and repairing the
machine. Define the responsibilities of the machine operator and authorize him to refuse any
instructions by third parties if they run contrary to the machine's safety. This applies in
particular for the operators of machines linked to other equipment. Persons receiving training
of any kind may only work on or with the machine under the constant supervision of an
experienced operator. Note the minimum age limits permitted by law.
A Word to the Operator
The greatest danger inherent in our machines:
is that of fingers, hands or loose clothing being drawn into a machine by live, coasting or
rotating tools or assemblies or of being cut by sharp tools or burned by hot elements.

Technical Manual & Part List Page 9
ALWAYS BE CONSCIOUS OF THESE DANGERS!
Safety Equipment on the Machines
All machines are delivered with safety equipment, which shall not be
removed or bypassed during operation.
The correct functioning of safety equipment on machines and systems
should be checked every day and before every new shift starts, after
maintenance and repair work, when starting up for the first time and when
restarting (e.g. after prolonged shutdowns).
If safety equipment has to be dismantled for setting-up, maintenance or repair work, such
safety equipment shall be replaced and checked immediately upon completing the
maintenance or repair work.
All protective mechanisms shall be fitted and fully operational whenever the machine is at a
standstill or if it has been shut down for a longer period of time.
Damage
If any changes capable of impairing safety are observed in the machine or its mode of
operation, such as malfunctions, faults or changes in the machine or tools, appropriate steps
must be taken immediately, the machine switched off and a proper lockout tagout procedure
followed. The machine should be examined for obvious damage and defects at least once per
shift. Damage found shall be immediately remedied by a duly authorized person before
resuming operation of machine.
The machine should only be operated when in perfect working order and when all protective
mechanisms and safety equipment, such as detachable protective mechanisms, emergency
STOP systems, etc. are in place and operational.
Faults or Errors
The machine must be switched off and all moving or rotating parts allowed to come to a
standstill and secured against accidental restart before starting to remedy any faults or errors.
