Brand: BERMAQ
Type: Plastics and Acrylic Sheet Bending Machine
Model: DA
follows the following Rules:
-Direction of Machine 2006/42/CE..
-Direction of Low Tension 2006/95/CEE.
-Direction of Electromagnetic Compatibility 2004/108/CE.
1.2. DIRECTIVES APPLIED TO THE MACHINE
MACHINERY DIRECTIVE: 2006/42/CE (FORMERLY 89/392/EEC REVISED BY
98/37/CE AND 93/68/EEC)
This directive applies to all machines and to all safety components. A machine is an assembly
of linked parts or components, at least one of which moves. It is generally applied that a "machine" must
perform a specific function. A comprehensive list of hazards is defined in Annex I of this directive. The
Machinery Directive requires that a hazard analysis be made, preformed, and documented. It also
requires the machine to be evaluated for electrical safety to the harmonized product safety standard.
Typical products are evaluated using the following standards:
•UNE-EN ISO 12100:2012: Safety of Machinery - Principles for Risk Assessment.
•UNE-EN 60204-1:2007: Safety of Machinery - General Requirements.
LOW VOLTAGE DIRECTIVE (LVD): 2006/95/CEE (REVISED BY 93/68/EEC)
The Low Voltage Directive sets essential requirements for the product safety of electrotechnical
products. This directive requires electronic products to be tested to the Harmonized Product Safety
Standard for your product type. The Low Voltage Directive does not consist only of technical
DA INSTRUCTION MANUAL

requirements. This directive requires the producer to keep a file of all relevant data (Technical
Document File), to officially state the conformity of the product (Declaration of Conformity), to inform
the users about safe use/installation/maintenance, and to mark the product with a CE Marking.
Typically products are evaluated using one of the following standards:
•EN 60950-1: Safety of Information Technology Equipment.
•EN 61010-1: Safety requirements for electrical equipment for measurement, control, and
laboratory use.
ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY (EMC) - 2004/108/CE
The electromagnetic compatibility Directive sets the essential requirements for electrical and
electronic equipment that may disturb or even be disturbed by other equipment. This Directive relates
to all electrical or electronic equipment.
The EMC Directive cameinto force on 1st January 2007 and it became a legal obligation on1st January
2009. This means that from that moment on, no more equipment may be placed on the market or put
into operation without the CE Marking. The CE Marking may be omitted from equipment that was
already placed on the market before that date. It will very rarely be the case that only the EMC Directive
is applicable to a product. With electrically driven machines, for example, a combination of the
Machinery Directive, the Low voltage Directive and the EMC Directive will often apply.

7. Move the clamp system to its lower position by removing the chain.
8. Slide the heating system until the bending line is over the resistance. Notice the value
of the measuring tape (in that case 65mm). Adjust the same distance at the opposite
side of the machine. Once the two values are exactly the same, screw completely both
knobs.
DA INSTRUCTION MANUAL

11. Put some unfloded pieces on the feeding tray and make sure that the adjusted width is
the proper one. If not, adjust again the guiding system as explained at step nº9.
12. There are an extra guiding system at the back side of the piece. It may help on the
longest pieces. Make sure that all the pieces can move freely along the guide.
13. Adjust the height of the valve, according to the thickness of the pieces, by loosen the
two knobs (note that the feedig tray must be in the upper position). The proper valve
height is the one that allow the movement of only one piece to the conveyor belt.
