PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT IN CONFORMITY WITH CURRENT RULES: all of the following
personal protective equipment (PPE) has to be in conformity with relevant technical rules in force (Directive no.
89/656/CEE and following amendments and updates) and therefore has to be EC-marked and have relevant
declarationofconformitywhichusuallyreferstospecicEuropean(EN)technicalrulesoftheharmonized
type. The operators must always inform the employer, manager and/or representative of the anomalies in the
operation or characteristics of the use of their personal protective equipment.
HEAD: The use of a cap to keep the hair gathered is mandatory in order to avoid entanglement with the
moving elements; for hygienic reasons, the cap must always be clean and must be able to retain the hair of the
operators. The hair might get entangled and cause serious accidents.
EYES: To protect the eyes from bone splinters and/or accidental blade breaking, wear safety glasses.
NOSE, MOUTH: To protect the respiratory tract from toxic or dangerous emissions of meat and similar
substances,itismandatorytowearlteringmasks;theyhavetobereplacedwithsignsofdirtorpartial
clogging; they have to be replaced after 2 (two) working days.
EARS: The machine does not produce a loud noise and it produces a continuous level of acoustic pressure
equivalent weighted “A” of 82 dB(A) ± 1 dB(A) vacuum and of 88 dB(A) ± 1 dB(A) when dry cutting large
and strong bones; thus ear protectors (protective headset) are strongly recommended and workers must be
instructed on their correct use. The use of new blades or very sharp blades and water-lubrication of the cutting
area of bones contribute to reducing the noise. The length of exposure to the noise is also a hazard. Submit
workers to regular health checks.
LIMBS AND BODY (what not to do): Never wear rings, wrist watches, bracelets, jewelry, torn clothing or
those with loose parts, scarves, ties, loose belts as they might get entangled and cause serious injury.
LIMBS AND BODY (what to do): For the protection of body parts, always wear overalls or coats with elastic
