Safety Features
WARNINGS SU ARY
The following warnings apply to general operation of the
bedding dispenser. Keep them in mind as you operate the
unit:
•
FALL HAZARD:
Areas located immediately around the bedding
dispenser may become a fall hazard due to water drippage.
For a safe environment, ensure the floor is kept clean and
dry.
•
PERSONAL HAZARD AND EQUIPMENT DAMAGE
: Safe and efficient
operation of this equipment requires scheduled preventative
maintenance. Routine adjustments and replacement of parts
by other than authorized maintenance personnel may result
in personal injury or cause the equipment to perform to less
than its capabilities.
•
SHOCK HAZARD
: Before performing any service or
maintenance on the bedding dispenser, disconnect all utilities
and follow the lockout/tagout procedures to ensure safety
and prevent accidental shock.
PERSONNEL SAFETY
The following safety features have been installed to protect the operator.
Grid Safety Shut-off The grid has an automatic safety shut-off switch. Removing the grid
activates the safety shut-off switch and stops the conveyor drive.
Top Cover Safety Shut-off The top cover has an automatic safety shut-off switch. Removing the top
cover activates the safety shut-off switch and stops the conveyor drive.
Load Conveyor Clutch The load conveyor is driven through a clutch to prevent motor failure in the
unlikely event that the conveyor becomes jammed and/or obstructed. The
clutch has been properly set by Getinge/Castle, Inc., upon shipment of the
unit and should only be adjusted by an authorized service technician that is
familiar with the equipment.
