1. Safety instructions!
Prior to commissioning, the Operating Manual
and safety instructions must be carefully read
and complied with! Pass on all safety instruc-
tions to other users, as well!
• Any person assigned by the operating company
to a function involving the assembly, disassembly,
commissioning, operation or maintenance (inspection,
maintenance, repair) of KOLBE butcher shop machinery
must have read completely and thoroughly understood
the respective Operating Manual and, especially, the
safety instructions. It is recommended that the operating
company establish an appropriate written verification
requirement.
• KOLBE butcher shop machines have been manufactured
and are operationally safe according to the latest standards
of technology. However, hazards can be associated with
the machines if they are operated by untrained persons
in an improper manner or in applications, for which they
were not intended.
• The KOLBE butcher shop machines (meat mincers,
bandsaws, portioning units, conveyors, lift/tilt equipment)
have been manufactured exclusively for the processing of
meat and fish products. Any other usage is deemed to be
utilisation not in accordance with the intended purpose.
The manufacturer is not liable for damages resulting from
such utilisation! The user bears sole responsibility for this
risk.
• Utilisation according to the intended purpose also
includes compliance with the manufacturer‘s prescribed
operating, service and maintenance requirements.
• The KOLBE butcher shop machines (meat mincers,
bandsaws, portioning units, conveyors, lift/tilt equipment)
must be operated, serviced or maintained only by
authorised persons who have been properly trained and
appropriately briefed. These persons must have received
special instruction on the potential hazards involved.
• From a safety perspective, the responsibilities for assembly,
disassembly, service, commissioning, maintenance and
operation must be clearly stipulated in order to avoid
confusion with regard to competencies.
• Prior to beginning work, the operator should be familiar
with all machine equipment and actuating controls, as
well as with their function! During work, time is no longer
available for this and it is too late!
• The shutdown procedures prescribed in the Operating
Manual must be observed during all work associated
with assembly, disassembly, service, commissioning,
maintenance and operation.
• All forms of work that could potentially impair the safety
of the machine are prohibited.
• The operator must at all times ensure that unauthorised
persons are restricted from working on the machine.
• The operator is responsible to ensure that any unforeseen
changes, which could potentially impair the safety of the
machine, are reported immediately to the supervisor.
• The user is responsible at all times to ensure that the
machine is operated only in a fault-free condition.
• Through appropriate instructions and controls, the user
must ensure the cleanliness and clear layout of the
workplace on and around the machine.
• Arbitrary modifications to, or conversions of the machine
are not permitted and exclude any manufacturer liability
for damages resulting from such actions.
• Do not reach into the inlet / outlet areas or into operating
tooling (e.g. bandsaw blade, mincer feed screw, cross
knife, lifting blade, etc.).
• Do not undertake any setting changes to the machine
while it is running, but always wait until the machine has
come to a standstill.
• Do not remove any electrical or mechanical safety
equipment.
• Prior to performing troubleshooting, maintenance or
repair activities, disconnect the electrical supply. This work
must be carried out only by an authorised specialist (post
warning signs on or around the machine as necessary).
• Prior to re-commissioning following machine maintenance
or repair, check to ensure that all safety equipment has
been re-installed.
• The generally valid occupational safety and accident
prevention regulations, as well as other generally accepted
safety-related rules, must be complied with.
2. List of hazards (residual dangers)
Be particularly aware of the following danger
areas on the machine!
2.1 Mechanical hazards
• Risk of injury on the cutting edges of the cross knife.
Do not reach into the outlet to access the rotating cross
knife behind the perforated disc (e.g. cuts and abrasions
on hands or fingers, or shearing-o of a finger). When
removing the knife, cut-resistant gloves must be worn.
• The risk exists of crushing or shearing-o of a finger, hand
or lower arm at the intake area of the working screw.
• The risk exists of cutting-o, shearing-o, cutting,
catching, tangling, being drawn in or trapped by the
rotating working screw, feed screw, mixing arm, loosening
shaft or rotating knife behind the perforated disc.

• The risk exists of crushing, shearing-o and jamming
of fingers, hands, feet or other body parts when .... or
between .... :
-Assembling or disassembling cutting set parts
-Assembling or disassembling the locking nut, mincer feed
screw, mincer housing, splatter guard, housing outlet
protective cover, feeder screw, mixing arm, loosening
shaft, as well as all removable parts
-Working with the combination hook wrench
-Closing the hopper cover or hopper attachment
-The batching trolley and the lift/tilt pylon
-The batching trolley and a wall or other objects
-Releasing the locking devices on mobile models
-Plugging or unplugging CEE plug connections
-Disassembled parts falling or toppling
-All moveable and stationary parts
• The risk of jamming or crushing exists due to machine
toppling, in particular on the mobile models.
• The risk of crushing exists between the mobile machine
and walls or other objects, as well as between the floor
and the castors.
• The risk of being drawn in, crushing or shearing-o of
fingers or hands exists during maintenance and inspection
work at the machine drive component intake areas with
opened inspection covers.
2.2 Hazard due to instability
• The risk exists to bodily parts due to impact or crushing,
in particular when the machine is mobile or topples.
Always bear in mind the need for a secure foundation
and stable flooring when installing the machine!
2.3 Electrical hazards
• The risk of injury exists due to direct or indirect contact
with electricity.
• The risk of injury exists due to defective electrical
components or malfunction.
2.4 Noise hazards
Risk of hearing loss due to noise emissions greater than
80 dB(A). With the meat mincers MW32-120 / MW114-
120 and MW52-120 / MW130-120 the noise level at idle /
sound pressure level has been determined according to EN
ISO 3746:2011 (constant K=4 dB) to be 68 dB(A), and this
results in a sound power level of 80 dB(A).
The values set forth are emission values and do not
necessarily represent safe values for the workplace. Although
there is a correlation between emission and immission
levels, a reliable conclusion as to whether additional safety
precautions are necessary according to EN ISO 11690-
1/-2 cannot be drawn. Factors present at the workplace,
which would influence immission levels, could relate to the
peculiarities of the workshop, itself, and other noise sources,
such as the number of machines and neighbouring work
processes, as well as non-standard operating conditions.
The allowable levels at the workplace can vary from country
to country. Nonetheless, this information should help the
user to better estimate the hazards and risks involved.
With a noise level of > 80 dB(A), the operator must take
appropriate precautions for hearing protection, such as
mandating the use of earplugs or other hearing protection
devices.
2.5 Hazards to health
The risk of harm to human health exists due to low ambient
temperatures. Thermal protective clothing should be worn
at ambient temperatures < 7 °C.
2.6 Hazards due to neglect of
hygienic principles and cleaning instructions:
• The risk of harm to human health and unacceptable
change in the foodstus being processed, such as:
-Spoilage of foodstus (food poisoning!)
-Internal chemical burns suered by the consumer due to
cleaning and disinfectant agent residue in the foodstus
-Internal injuries to the consumer due to a foreign object
-(e.g. machine parts or parts from other origins)
2.7 Predictable operator error
• Non-compliance with installation instructions
• Non-adherence to operator instructions
• Non-observance of danger notices
• Non-compliance with shutdown procedures
• Non-observance of operating instructions
• Non-observance of cleaning instructions
• Non-compliance with maintenance intervals
• Non-adherence to utilisation according to intended
purpose
