MA-5094-E MICRON MOD ADHESIVE MELTER MANUALSAFETY GUIDELINES
1-1
1. SAFETY GUIDELINES
General
The information contained in this section applies not only to everyday machine
operation, but also to any procedure carried out on it, whether for preventive
maintenance or in the case of repairs and the replacement of worn out parts.
It is very important to observe the safety warnings in this manual at all times.
Failure to do so may result in personal injury and/or damage to the machine
or the rest of the installation.
Before beginning work on the machine, read this manual carefully, and in case
of any doubt, contact our Technical Service Center. We are available for any
clarification that you might need.
Keep manuals in perfect condition and within reach of personnel that use the
machine and perform maintenance on it.
Also provide necessary safety material: appropriate clothing, footwear, gloves
and safety glasses.
In all cases, observe local regulations regarding risk prevention and safety.
Symbols
The symbols used on both the melter/applicator equipment and in this manual
always represent the type of risk we are exposed to. Failure to abide by a
warning signal may result in personal injury and/or damage to the machine or
the rest of the installation.
Warning: Risk of electrical shock. Carelessness may produce injury or death.
Warning: Hot zone with high temperatures. Risk of burns. Use thermal
protective equipment.
Warning: System under pressure. Risk of burns or particle projection. Use
thermal protective equipment and goggles.
Warning: Important information for the correct use of the system. May include
one or several of the previous hazards, and therefore must be kept in mind to
avoid damage and injury.

SAFETY GUIDELINESFOCKE MELER GLUING SOLUTIONS
Mechanical components
The melter/applicator equipment installation uses moveable parts that may
cause damage or injury. Use the equipment correctly, and do not remove the
safety guards while the equipment is in operation; prevent the risk of possible
entrapment due to moving mechanical parts.
Do not use the machine if the safety devices are not in place or appear to be
inadequately installed.
For maintenance or repair operations, stop the movement of moveable parts
by turning off the main switch.
Electrical components
The system operates with a one-phase current (LN ~ 230V 50Hz + PE or 3N ~
400/230V 50Hz+PE) at a certain rated power. Never handle the equipment with
the power connected, as this may result in powerful electrical shocks.
The installation must be correctly grounded.
The installation’s power cable conductors must match the required electric
current and voltage.
Periodically inspect the cables to check for crushing, wear and tear, as well as
to prevent tripping and falls as a result of their placement.
Although the system meets EMC requirements, it is inadvisable to use
devices that transmit high levels of radiation, i.e., mobile phones or soldering
equipment in their vecinity.
Hydraulic components
As this is a pressurized system, precautions related to this type of equipment
must be observed.
Before each operation, always make sure that the adhesive circuit is
completely free of pressure. There is a high risk of hot particle projection,
along with the corresponding danger of burns.
Use caution with the residual pressure that may remain in the hoses when the
adhesive cools. When reheated, there is a risk of hot particle projection if the
outputs are left open.
Thermal components
The entire system operates with temperatures reaching up to 200 °C (446
°F). The equipment must be operated using adequate protection (clothing,
footwear, gloves and protective glasses) that completely cover exposed parts
of the body.
Keep in mind that, due to the high temperatures reached, the heat does not
dissipate immediately, even when the power (in this case, electric) source is
disconnected. Therefore, use caution, even with the adhesive itself. It may
remain very hot, even in a solid state.
