Safety Precaution Instructions

WARNING
Read and understand this manual before using the machine.
Failure to follow safety precautions and instructions can result in death or
serious injury.
Definition of Lockout Procedure
A lockout procedure is a procedure to put each necessary energy isolating
device in its safe position to prevent the energisation of the equipment, such
as when a maintenance procedure should be carried out.
A lockout is the use of a device, for example, a padlock, to make sure that an
energy isolating device cannot be operated.
An energy isolating device is a mechanical device that physically prevents
transmission or release of energy, such as an electrical supply disconnecting
device.

ii Safety Precautions Safe Manual Handling

Safe Manual Handling

Use mechanical lifting aids whenever possible. If mechanical lifting aids are
not available, do not attempt to lift loads over 23 kg without the assistance of
a colleague. Avoid lifting below knee height and above shoulder height. If it
is necessary to lift from the floor, follow the instructions below to reduce the
risk of back and disc injuries.
• Use safety shoes and be sure that the surface of the floor is not slippery.
• Get close to the load.
• Take a wide stance and find the best positions for your feet.
• Bend your hips and knees, and use your leg muscles.
• Keep the load close to your body.
• Do not twist your body while moving the load.
• Take small steps when turning.
In order to reduce the risk of injury to discs and back muscles, be careful to
not bend or twist your back when lifting. Keep the load close to your body to
reduce the strain on your back.
To reduce the ergonomic risks to each individual operator, job rotation is
recommended, so that recovery and variety are provided.

DANGERI
DANGER
Hazardous voltage and moving machinery.
The electrical supply disconnecting device must be in position O (OFF) and
secured with a lock before any work with the equipment that requires the
electrical supply to be disconnected. See the Machine Status section of
the Procedure Start Table.
Note! The key to the lock must be removed by the technician and retained
in his/her possession until all work is completed.
Certain procedures may require that the electrical supply disconnecting device
is in position | (ON). These exceptions are clearly stated in the manuals.

location.

Residual Voltage

DANGERI
DANGER
Hazardous voltage.
Will shock, burn, or cause death.
After the electrical supply disconnecting device is turned to position O (OFF),
residual voltage remains in the capacitor circuits. Wait five minutes before
opening the enclosure containing these circuits. Ensure that no residual
voltage remains on the capacitors before touching them.

1 General Description 1.1 Functional Description

1.1 Functional Description

The machine heats up the straw ladder band to smooth any unevenness in the
foil. The heating also straightens out straws that are slightly bent.
The straw ladder band (1) is fed into the machine when the rollers (2) are
cranked to their upper position. The straw ladder band is fed through the
slots (3) by using the plastic sword (4) to make sure that the straw ladder
band is fed correctly, and to prevent the operator from coming in contact with
the heated zone (5) inside the machine. The plastic sword is placed on the
outside of the Bent Foil Treater. When the straw ladder band loose end (6) is
fed through the machine, the plastic sword is removed from the slots and the
rollers are released and cranked to their lower position (7).
A temperature-regulated system controls the temperature in the heated zone
and a motor driven fan (8) distributes the heated air. The set temperature is
controlled by the temperature regulator system.

DANGERI
DANGER
Risk of personal injury.
Certain agents can cause injury if they come into contact with the eyes,
skin, mucous membranes, or clothing.
It is strongly recommend, in order to optimize the cleaning efficiency, to use
water characterised by the following physio-chemical parameters:
• water quality; chlorine free, drinkable water
• pH; between 6 and 8 pH units
• water hardness; between 5 and 10 °f French degrees of hardness (between
3 and 6 German degrees of hardness)
• chlorides; lower than 50 ppm
• silicates; lower than 10 ppm.

7.1-1 Cleaning Compound Table

Comparable qualities from other suppliers may be selected in compliance
with the technical requirements listed in the table. All cleaning compounds
must comply with local legal requirements.
The supplier recommendations for concentration and temperature should be
followed. When dosing the products automatically, the concentration should
be checked.
