ROTHENBERGER ROWELD D 4/15 Aero - Manual (Page 19)

ENGLISH 17
1 General
These operating instructions must always be available at the place of use of the
hand extruder.
The objective of these operating instructions is to support operators in familiarizing themselves
with the hand extruder and in using its functions for the intended service.
These operating instructions provide important information for the safe, workmanlike and eco-
nomical operation of the hand extruder. Their observance helps avoid danger, minimize repair
costs and downtimes, enhance reliability, and extend the service life of the hand extruder.
These operating instructions must be observed by all persons working with/on the hand extrud-
er. Such work includes, for instance:
•
operation,
• maintenance, inspection and repair,
• transport.
The hand extruder may only be mounted, operated and maintained by trained personnel.
In addition to the operating instructions and the national and local accident prevention regula-
tions applicable at the place of use, the acknowledged technical rules for safe and proper work-
ing practices must be observed.
These operating instructions provide basic information to be observed for operation and mainte-
nance. For this reason, it is imperative that they be read by the specialist personnel/Operator
prior to placing the hand extruder in service and that they always be available at the place of
use.
Apart from the general safety instructions under section “Safety“, also the special safety instruc-
tions given under the respective subsections must be adhered to.
2 Safety
These operating instructions provide basic information to be observed for operation and mainte-
nance. For this reason, it is imperative that they be read by the specialist personnel/Operator
prior to placing the hand extruder in service and that they always be available at the place of
use.
Safe operation of the hand extruder presupposes that the instructions under section 1 – General
– of these operating instructions are complied with. In no case must the limit values indicated be
violated.
Intact and unaltered hand extruders conform to the applicable codes and standards and meet all
regulatory limit values regarding EMC (electromagnetic discharges and interference immunity).
For the country-specific limit values to be observed, the Operator should consult the local elec-
tric utility. Nevertheless, the hand extruders emit electromagnetic fields within the acceptable
limits. Electromagnetic fields may interfere with the operation of vital electronic devices (e.g.
cardiac pacemakers). Persons wearing a cardiac pacemaker should therefore consult their phy-
sician before using the machine.
Apart from the general safety instructions under section “Safety“, also the special safety instruc-
tions given under the respective sub-sections must be adhered to.
Any working practices posing a safety risk are prohibited!
2.1 Identification of information in the operating instructions
In these operating instructions, safety instructions whose non-observance may cause hazards to
persons are identified with
Hazard symbol according to DIN 4844 – W 9
for general hazards and with
Hazard symbol according to DIN 4844 – W 8
for electrical hazards.
