SAFETY & ACCIDENT PREVENTION

Operation

The employer is responsible for instructing the personnel who, in turn, are obliged to inform the operator of any accident risks, safety devices, noise emission & accident prevention regulations provided for by national & international laws governing the use of the machine. The operator must be fully aware of the position  & functions of all the machine’s controls.

All those concerned must strictly adhere to ALL instructions, warnings, & accident prevention standards in this manual.

The following definitions are those provided for by the EEC DIRECTIVE ON MACHINERY No. 98/37/CE:

• Danger Zone – any zone in and/or around a machine in which the presence of a person constitutes a risk for the safety & health of that person.
• Person Exposed – any person finding him or herself, either completely or partly in a danger zone.
• Operator – the person or persons are given the responsibility of installing, operating, adjusting, maintaining, cleaning, repairing, & transporting the machine.

1. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when using the conveyor and cold saw.
2. Keep hands and clothing away from the saw blade and conveyor rollers.
3. Ensure the saw blade guard is in place and functioning correctly.
4. Disconnect the power source before making any adjustments to the conveyor or saw.
5. Keep the work area clean and free from clutter to avoid tripping hazards.
6. Never reach over the conveyor while it is in operation.
7. Use caution when loading and unloading materials onto the conveyor.
8. Do not use the saw or conveyor if you are tired, under the influence of drugs or alcohol, or not trained to operate them.
9. Do not allow untrained individuals to use the conveyor or cold saw.
10. Always follow manufacturer’s instructions and recommendations for safe operation.

Advice for the Operator

Protective eyewear or goggles must be worn at all times while attending & operating the metal saw.

Do not attempt to operate the machine unless all safety guards are in operation.
The guard must fully cover the blade when the head is in the uppermost position.

Ensure that hands & arms are kept clear of the cutting zone when the machine is operating.

Do not wear loose clothing with long sleeves & oversized gloves, bracelets, necklaces or any other loose object that may become entangled in the machine’s blade during cutting. Long hair must be tied back or placed in a hair net.

Always disconnect the power supply to the machine before carrying out any maintenance work or adjustments. This includes cases of abnormal operations of the machine.

Any maintenance work performed on the hydraulic, pneumatic or coolant systems must be carried out only after the pressure in the system has been released.

The operator MUST NOT conduct any risky operations or those not required for the cutting in course (e.g. remove swarf shavings from the machine while cutting).
Never move the saw while the machine is operating.

Always keep the workplace are as clean as possible.
Remove equipment, tools or any other objects from the cutting zone.

Support the workpiece on both sides of the machine to prevent it falling or jamming during the cutting cycle.

Ensure that the specimen being cut is secured firmly in the vice clamps & the machine has been correctly set. Figure A show some examples of how to correctly clamp different specimen profiles. Before commencing the cut, be sure the vice(s) is securely clamped & the machine set-up is correct.
Figure A. Correct Clamping of Cutting Specimens

Do not use cutting blades of different sizes to those recommended to the machine’s specifications. Always follow safe practices & inspection procedures when installing blades (Please refer to section 5.1 Changing the Blade).

When cutting very small specimens, ensure that the workpiece is not dragged behind the back fence support, where it could get lodged behind the blade.

If the blade jams during a cut, activate the emergency stop function immediately. Do not continue forcing the blade through. This could damage the blade, the specimen or be a cause for potential injury to the operator.

Always turn off the machine before carrying out any repair work. Consult the Brobo Group
Engineering Department in the country in which the machine was initially purchased.
