1.3 Operating safety instructions
The HSM baling press has been inspected for safety by the examination board of
the technical committee on printing and paper processing.
The baling press has been built with the most up-to-date technology. However, the
machine can be dangerous if improperly used, even by trained staff, or if used for
purposes other than those for which it was designed.
Anyone in the operating company charged with installation, assembly, reassembly,
start-up, operation, inspection, maintenance or repair of the baling press must have
first read and fully understood the entire operating manual, paying particular
attention to the “Safety” section.
The operating manual must be kept available for staff at all times.
The baling press may not be operated by anyone under 16 years of age.
The baling press may only be operated, serviced and repaired by authorised,
trained staff. These staff must have been given special instructions on any dangers
which may possibly arise.
Areas of personal responsibility for installation, assembly, re-assembly, set-up,
operation and maintenance must be clearly defined and strictly adhered to, in order
to avoid confusion which might compromise safety.
When carrying out installation, disassembly, re-assembly, maintenance, operation,
adjustment and repair work always observe the shut-down procedures described in
the operating manual.
Never use any working practices which may be detrimental to the safety of the
baling press.
The operator must ensure that only authorised staff work on the baling press.
The operator must immediately report any changes in the baling press which impair
safety and shut down the machine until the problem has been resolved.
The user must undertake never to use the baling press unless it is in perfect working
order.
The user must ensure that the workplace at the baling press is clean and tidy by
means of appropriate instructions and inspections.
Unauthorised modifications which may impair the safety of the baling press are not
permitted. Protective devices may not be removed or otherwise rendered
inoperative.
No work may be performed on the machine while it is running.

Safety informations VK 5012
Before performing any work on the baling press it must be ensured that its drives
and additional devices cannot be switched on unintentionally (set the main switch on
the control cabinet to 0 and lock it).
Before starting the machine after repairs, make sure all protective devices are in
place.
Doors and flaps may only be opened after the baling press has stopped.
Test the protective devices after installing or repairing electrical components.
The operation of the baling press is always subject to local safety and accident
prevention regulations.
No platforms or other raised surfaces may be placed near the baling press if they
encroach on the specified safety clearances.
Riding on conveyors is strictly prohibited!
Connecting cables must be laid in such a way that they cannot be tripped over.
Check that mechanical wearing parts (such as the shear blade and rollers) are
working properly according to the maintenance instructions.
All electrical functional elements and components must be inspected every six
months by a qualified electrician.
Only persons with the appropriate skills and experience in hydraulics may carry out
work on the hydraulic equipment.
All lines, pipes and bolted joints must be regularly inspected for looseness, leaks
and visible damage. Any damage must be repaired immediately. Escaping oil can
cause fire and injury.
Any parts of the system and hydraulic pressure lines that need to be opened must
be depressurised according to the assembly instructions before commencing repair
work.
Hydraulic lines must be laid and installed correctly. Do not confuse connections. The
fittings, length and quality of the hose lines must meet the specified standards.
Replace pressure lines every 2 years !
