General Safety Requirements—Vital Information for
2.1.1.
Management Personnel
Incorrect installation, neglected preventive maintenance, abuse, and/or improper repairs, or
changes to the machine can cause unsafe operation and personal injuries, such as multiple
fractures, amputations, or death. The owner or his selected representative (owner/user) is
responsible for understanding and ensuring the proper operation and maintenance of the machine.
The owner/user must familiarize himself with the contents of all machine instruction manuals.
The owner/user should direct any questions about these instructions to a Milnor® dealer or the
Milnor® Service department.
Most regulatory authorities (including OSHA in the USA and CE in Europe) hold the owner/user
ultimately responsible for maintaining a safe working environment. Therefore, the owner/user
must do or ensure the following:
• recognize all foreseeable safety hazards within his facility and take actions to protect his
personnel, equipment, and facility;
• work equipment is suitable, properly adapted, can be used without risks to health or safety,
and is adequately maintained;
• where specific hazards are likely to be involved, access to the equipment is restricted to those
employees given the task of using it;
• only specifically designated workers carry out repairs, modifications, maintenance, or
servicing;
• information, instruction, and training is provided;
• workers and/or their representatives are consulted.
Work equipment must comply with the requirements listed below. The owner/user must verify
that installation and maintenance of equipment is performed in such a way as to support these
requirements:
• control devices must be visible, identifiable, and marked; be located outside dangerous zones;
and not give rise to a hazard due to unintentional operation;
• control systems must be safe and breakdown/damage must not result in danger;
• work equipment is to be stabilized;
• protection against rupture or disintegration of work equipment;
