SAFETY REGULATIONS AND OPERATING PRECAUTIONS
•The machine should work in a closed room protected from dust and excessive humidity.
The machine should be positioned in such a way that its distance from the walls, doors,
windows, other machines or working positions guarantees immediate access in the case
of urgency, maintenance or repairs.
•Do not install this Machine in the neighborhood of other Operating Machines which
produce dust since dust can deposit itself inside the machine and cause damage to the
internal electric devices.
•The Machine is furnished with special safety guards which protect the operator from
coming into contact with the mechanical and electrical parts inside the machine. Only
those persons who are specialized in repairs and maintenance and who have been
authorized should have access to the above mentioned parts. Simple general
maintenance can be safely performed by the operator so long as the machine has been
stopped and the electrical power supply has been disconnected.

PES197 and PES197/E: ENGLISH
PES197 & PES197/E: PA25609A01_01 Page: 7 of 17 7-2009
•The Machine has been made with fireproof materials thus diminishing the risk of general
fire. Short circuit protection has been implemented so that the power supply is
immediately isolated thus avoiding unwanted current absorption from the external power
line.
•Do Not place Liquids on the machine cover since it has not been water sealed. It is
particularly important to avoid oxidations which would add to the wear and erosion of the
mechanical parts.
The machine has labels that indicate any danger areas.
The meanings of these labels are explained below.
PANDUIT cannot be held responsible for the consequences of not abiding
by these principles when using the machine.
Therefore, in the case of breakdown, please call for Technical Assistance.

DO NOT REMOVE SAFETY GUARD
These safety guards should be removed only by specialized and authorized technical
persons who haven taken care to adopt all security measures to avoid any risk of danger
and injury.
BE CAREFUL OF YOUR HANDS! RISK OF BEING CRUSHED OR
STRUCK
The machine in the wooden package weighs 145 lbs. (66 Kg) and the
net weight is 95 lbs. (43 Kg); therefore all displacements should be done
with two persons present.
DANGER! HIGH TENSION
It is forbidden to do any maintenance work while the machine is under electrical tension. To
substitute a fuse or to do internal maintenance, disconnect the power supply and do not
work on the power line.
ATTENTION! MOVING MACHINE COMPONENTS
If any maintenance work has to be done the technician must disconnect the power supply
and work on the machine only when it has been stopped.
ATTENTION! DANGER
The machine when at work has several moving units.
