General safety rules

11. Danger points and danger zones

Danger points on the running machine must be made safe
on site by means of appropriate safety guards.
Never reach into a danger zone while the machine is
running.
Always unplug from the mains power supply before
attempting any work on this machine.
Entering the danger zone in any impermissible way or
when the machine is running, and reaching into it, e.g. for
cleaning, setting or servicing work, may present the hazards
described below:
Risk of trapping
fingers
Risk of cutting your-
self
Risk of getting pul-
led in
Parts moving in an
uncontrolled manner
en
Electrical hazards

12. Unloading and handling

Only use appropriate and approved lifting gear (crane) for
unloading the machine, assemblies and components as well
as for lifting heavy loads; to handle the machine internally,
only use industrial trucks wherever possible.
• Any unloading or internal handling must not be done by
hand if such involves weights in excess of 25 kg.
Danger!
Never stand or work under loads suspended on lifting
gear. This presents the risk of fatal injury.
Observe the following when using lifting gear:
• Only attach lifting gear at the points marked (lifting
eyebolts etc.) on the machine.
• Only use appropriate and tested load suspension devices
(lifting belts, ropes, chains, shackles etc.) with a sufficient
load carrying capacity.
• Only get experienced, skilled personnel to move the
machine.
• Always ensure level standing for machine / assemblies, lift
vertically, never drag at an angle.
Protect projecting machine parts and equipment from
damage when using lifting gear and moving the machine
internally.
Set down loads gently with the usual care and take
immediate action to prevent them from falling over /
tipping, rolling away, suffering damage from external
force, e.g. colliding with industrial trucks and objects
falling from above.

13. Installing and connecting the machine

• Get an expert to check the work benches for adequate
load carrying capacity / stability before setting the
machine down at the point of installation.
• Make sure that setting-up / connecting work is not
affected by additional hazards at the site of installation.
• Do not install the machine near work areas where solvents
are used (e.g. paint shops).
Warning!
The machine must not be installed with its electrical
equipment in potentially explosive atmospheres.
• Thoroughly clean the standing surface. Remove (sweep up)
dirt, debris left over from building or assembly work.
• Lay cables and compressed air lines so that no-one can
trip over them in work and trafficked areas. Cables or
hoses must not be kinked, nipped or worn through.
• Connecting pneumatic devices and equipment as well as
setting and repair work demands specialised knowledge
and must only be performed by appropriately trained and
qualified personnel.

14. Getting ready

Operating preparations, function check, trial run and set-up
work
Remember that it is not permitted to modify the machine
and do not fit any attachments that have not been tested or
approved by Paul Hettich GmbH & Co. KG. Any change, no
matter how minor, will lead to uncontrollable malfunctions
and result in considerable hazards and damage to property.
When setting the machine or changing a tool, take
appropriate precautionary measures and work as instructed.
Take appropriate measures to prevent machine elements
from suddenly moving, e.g. through unauthorised or
inadvertent changes to switch settings.
Before commencing any work, turn off the master or mains
switch and prevent it moving from the OFF position.
When performing set-up work or making settings:
• do not touch any components that are still being moved,
clamped or worked on by the machine and / or have not
yet finally released by it,
• never touch tools before the machine has finally shut
down and come to a complete standstill,
• do not touch any parts that are still hot from operation.
The surfaces of drilling units can reach a temperature of
approx. 80° C after the machine has been running for
a while.
Warning!
Wherever possible, perform all set-up or setting work
in the company of a supervising person who can
switch the machine off in the event of any hazard
situation suddenly occurring.
