3. ESSENTIAL SAFETY REQUIREMENTS

Due to the functional reasons, "dangerous area" is considered to be the space between the columns, the table and the hydraulic cylinder piston.
Due to the material pressed, "dangerous area" is supposed to be the surrounding area to the machine in case of metal parts being ejected
during pressing.


The speed of the hydraulic cylinder during its extension is less than 30 mm/second. Therefore then machine should be considered by the application of
ANNEX V of the Declaration of CE Conformity.
Operators standing in the dangerous area around the machine should protect their feet, faces and hands from metal pieces being ejected during pressing.

Feet protection

Face protection

Hands protection


There are not risks for the health and safety of the operators by the used materials and components, if they are used correctly. The motor pump contains LUKAS
hydraulic oil (type ISO: HV46).

IN ANY CASE, HYDRAULIC OIL IS TOXIC IF IT TAKES CONTACT THE HUMAN BLOOD STREAM, SO NEVER PLACE THE FINGERS
OVER ANY HOLE THAT MAY CAUSE AN INJECTION INTO THE HUMAN BLOOD STREAM WHEN THE PRESS-SYSTEM IS
PRESSURIZED.

™ The start and stop operations of the motor are made with the commands of IP55 electric remote control box. The commands are supplied with a

24 V. tension.

™ The advance and return movements of the cylinders are made by the hand lever located in the pump. This lever actuates over a directional

valve.

™ The operator can always interrupt the movement of the cylinder independent of the kind of operation that the equipment makes, because the

operator sometimes must place its hands over the material to be treated. This forces the operator, to know the inherent risks and the operating
of the equipment.

™ The starting up of the motor is carried out by the ON/OFF switch located on the electric box of the pump. (ON = 1 / OFF = 0)
™ The rest of operating devices are activated manually from the directional valve on the cover of the pump.
™ To get cylinder movements, it is necessary to push the green button on the electric remote control box.
™ If you stop pressing the green push button, the motor stops and with it the cylinder movements. (The red push button has no function!)
™ The machine is equipped with the fuse and a thermo-magnetic switch for its protection.
™ The machine is equipped with supporting plates on the columns for a perfect stability. The machine gets operated without fixing onto the floor,

but it is strongly recommended to do it by drilling the plates in the place of your choice.

™ The construction of machine has been calculated to bear without any breaking under conditions of foreseen utilization and for the whole life of

the machine.

™ The hydraulic components have been designed and calculated in compliance with the ANSI B30.1
™ It is operator's responsibility to wear special protective clothes and attachments in both feet and face to prevent any damage as a result of

accidental fallings and breakings of metal pieces under operation or machine components in touch with.

™ Risks due to surfaces, bends and angles: The frame of the machine does not cause to be dangerous in that sense.

o

Risk due to mobile components in setup stage: The table can be positioned in several fixing points (weight of the table 21,5 Kg).
The EE06018 model is provided with a winch for the displacement of the table. It is operator's responsibility to wear safety shoes in
any case. There are 2 axle pins in equivalent holes of the lowest position to prevent operator's feet from being caught by the table.

o

Risk due to mobile components during service: The operator must either move the directional valve lever to "C" position or
stop pressing the green button to fully stop the movement of the piston.
