A-2 DAILY INSPECTION
2. NOTES ON INSPECTIONS AND MAINTENANCE
Pay adequate consideration to safety and hygiene when performing work such as machine
inspections, setup, and cleaning, and implement appropriate safety and hygiene measures.
Some points that require attention are cited below but note that other necessary measures must
also be taken and the necessary training given to ensure the safety of the operator, before (s)he
uses the machine.
2.1 Work in General
When cleaning inside the machine, the operator could suffer injuries such as trauma,
lacerations, contusions or broken bones, caused by tools or fixtures, workpieces, or
projections, corners, or joints in the machine construction, or chips. Take care not to
touch chips, tools, fixtures, workpieces, or the structural parts of the machine with bare
hands. Wear appropriate protective gear for each kind of work, and ensure safety
before starting work.
DANGER
Protective circuits and protective covers are provided in order to - in all
conceivable circumstances - prevent the operator from touching moving
parts and live parts while power is supplied to the machine, but these
devices cannot guarantee 100% safety. Exercise due care while operating
the machine.
WARNING
Always shut off the main power supply to the machine before cleaning the
machine or the vicinity of the machine. Otherwise the machine could
suddenly start operating during cleaning and the operator could be
entangled or crushed in its moving parts, or lose balance and fall over.
