Hazards from
mains and clea-
ning current
An electric shock can be fatal. Every electric shock is hazardous to life.
Do not touch any live parts, either inside or outside the machine.
Ensure sufficient protection for yourself and for other people by means of a
dry base or cover that provides adequate insulation against the ground/frame
potential. The base or cover must completely cover the entire area between
your body and the ground/frame potential.
All cables and other leads must be firmly attached, undamaged, properly
insulated and adequately dimensioned. Immediately replace any loose
connections, scorched, damaged or underdimensioned cables or other
leads.
Do not loop any cables or other leads around your body or any part of your
body.
Have the mains and the machine supply leads checked regularly by a
qualified electrician to ensure that the PE (protective earth) conductor is
functioning correctly.
Only run the machine on a mains network with a PE conductor, and plugged
into a power outlet socket with a protective-conductor contact.
If the machine is run on a mains network without a PE conductor and
plugged into a power outlet socket without a protective-conductor contact,
this counts as gross negligence and the manufacturer shall not be liable for
any resulting damage.
Wherever necessary, use suitable measures to ensure that the workpiece is
sufficiently grounded (earthed).
Switch off any appliances that are not in use.
Before doing any work on the machine, switch it off and unplug it from the
mains.
Put up a clearly legible and easy-to-understand warning sign to stop anybody
inadvertently plugging the machine back into the mains and switching it back
on again.
After opening up the machine:
- discharge any components that may be storing an electrical charge
- ensure that all machine components are electrically dead.
If work needs to be performed on any live parts, there must be a second
person on hand to immediately switch off the machine at the main switch in
an emergency.
It is the responsibility of the owner/operator to ensure that no
electromagnetic interference is caused to electrical and electronic
equipment.
If electromagnetic interference is found to be occurring, the owner/operator is
obliged to take all necessary measures to prevent this interference.
Examine and evaluate any possible electromagnetic problems that may
occur on equipment in the vicinity, and the degree of immunity of this
equipment, in accordance with national and international regulations:
