This chapter contains a summary of the most
important information on safety when handling the
machine.

2.1 Accident prevention and safety

The following instructions comply with legislation,
directives, and publications such as:
— EC Machinery Directive
— EC Product Liability Directive
— Law on technical materials
— Law on equipment safety
— Law on product liability
This operating manual is intended for operators and tool
setters, as well as for the personnel that service,
maintain and repair the machine. Together with all the
technical documentation, it is intended to help
— avoid hazardous situations
— use the machine for its intended applications
— avoid downtime and repair costs
— maintain the function of the machine
— increase the service life of the machine
The manufacturer and owner of the machine must
observe the contents and provisions of the EC
directives. The effectiveness of any measure
ultimately depends on how well all parties, i.e. the
manufacturer, the owner and the machine operators,
work together to uphold safety standards.
All laws and regulations (e.g. the valid regulations on
waste disposal), accident prevention guidelines and
generally recognized safety rules must be complied
with when working on and with the machine.
