instructed by the operator.
2.3 Residual hazards
2.3.1 Hazards due to electrical energy
The SmartFiller is connected to the power supply via a 24 volt power supply
unit. When connecting the power supply to the SmartFiller, check that the
cable is seated correctly. Before maintenance work or disassembly, disconnect
the mains plug and thus disconnect the SmartFiller from the power supply.
The electrical equipment of the SmartFiller must be checked at regular
intervals. Defects, such as loose connections, rubbed or scorched cables, must
be rectified immediately by a qualified electrician.
The SmartFiller must be switched off immediately in the event of faults in the
electrical power supply.
2.3.2 Magnetism hazards
Hazards due to strong magnets
The SmartFiller is attached to surfaces by powerful magnets. These magnets
cause electromagnetic fields that can affect pacemakers and similar devices.
This can lead to malfunctions in pacemakers. The electromagnetic field affects
devices in the immediate vicinity, the perimeter is about 0.5 meters around
the SmartFiller. Persons with pacemakers should not stay in this field.
**WARNING**
| Danger from strong magnets
The magnets cause strong, electromagnetic fields that can affect and interfere
with electronic devices such as pacemakers. Malfunctions of pacemakers can
cause death or serious injury to the persons affected.
➢ Persons with pacemakers must not be in the vicinity of the SmartFiller.
➢ Persons with pacemakers must not perform any activities with the
SmartFiller.
➢ Check this warning notice on the SmartFiller or on the machine tool at
regular intervals. Replace damaged warning labels immediately.
The hazard exists even when the SmartFiller is switched off; the magnets are
always active.
Persons with pacemakers must therefore not carry out any activities with the
SmartFiller (neither transport, commissioning, disposal or maintenance and
servicing).
In addition, regularly check the warning signs attached to the machine tool
for damage. Only these pictograms can warn and protect uninvolved third
parties from the magnets. For this purpose, comply with the information in the
maintenance plan.
Risk of crushing due to magnets
The SmartFiller is attached to surfaces such as drums or machine housings
by strong magnets. During installation, the magnetic effect can instantly pull
the SmartFiller to the surface. If the fitter does not pay attention to his
fingers during this process, they can be crushed as a result. This can result
in slight bruising of individual fingers or fingertips. To protect against
bruising, the SmartFiller should always be held by the upper part of the
housing. Together with appropriate care, the SmartFiller can be fixed without
risk.
Falling SmartFiller
The SmartFiller is attached to surfaces by means of magnets. If the
magnetic adhesion of the surface is too low or non-existent, the SmartFiller
can fall down. Falling down can crush the installer’s feet. If the SmartFiller
falls to the floor, it can be damaged.
Test the magnetic effect of the surface by carefully moving the SmartFiller
towards it. Observe the magnetic effect and hold the SmartFiller by the upper
part of the housing to prevent your fingers from being crushed. Then try to
move the SmartFiller to see if it moves and threatens to fall off. If the
SmartFiller moves even when a slight force is applied, a different surface
must be selected for mounting or the supplied wall mount must be used.
2.3.3 Hazards due to leakage and hose lines
Leakage and defective hose lines
The SmartFiller is connected to the water supply and the cooling lubricant
tank via hose lines. If these lines are not laid properly or if damaged lines
are used, this will lead to leaks and cooling lubricant will escape.
Escaping cooling lubricant can cause injuries (e.g. by slipping). Therefore,
lay the hose lines carefully and free of tripping hazards. Check the assembly
of the hose lines before commissioning. Observe the information in the
maintenance plan for regular checks.
Risk of tripping due to cables
The SmartFiller is connected to the water supply and the cooling lubricant
tank via hose lines. These hose lines must be laid carefully to prevent the
risk of tripping. Persons who trip over hose lines can fall and injure
themselves. In addition, the lines or the connections on the SmartFiller can
be damaged and cooling lubricant can escape in an uncontrolled manner.
2.3.4 Hazards due to cooling lubricant (KSS)
