Electrical Safety; Commissioning - ATIKA AMA 2300 Manual Original

 Do not overload the machine! You work better and safer in the
given performance range.
 Only operate the machine with complete and correctly at-
tached safety equipment and do not alter anything on the ma-
chine that could impair the safety.
 Never try to bypass the interlocking function of the safety
device.
 Do not alter the motor controller setting, since the rotary
speed controls the safe maximum operating speed, and pro-
tects the motor and all rotating parts against damage due to
excess speed. Contact the customer service in case of prob-
lems.
 Do not operate without the funnel.
 Do not modify the device or parts of the device respectively.
 Close machine properly before enabling motor.
 Do not hose down the device with water. (Origin of danger
electric current).
 Take into consideration environmental influences:
Do not use the device in moist or wet ambience.
−
Do not leave the machine standing in the rain.
−
Do not work in bad weather conditions (e.g. rain, risk of
−
lightning).
Provide for good illumination.
−
 To prevent danger of injury to fingers during assembly or
cleaning operations hold the cutting mechanism (see pic.
"Changing the blades") and wear protecting gloves.
 Switch the machine off and remove the mains plug from the
socket when
Performing maintenance and cleaning work.
−
Eliminating faults.
−
Checking connecting lines, whether
−
these are knotted or damaged.
Transporting.
−
Carrying out repair work.
−
Changing the blades.
−
Leaving unattended (even during short interruptions).
−
 If the machine's filling funnel or ejection slot is blocked switch
off the motor and disconnect the mains plug before removing
material from the filling funnel or ejection slot.
 Do not touch dangerous moving parts before the machine has
been isolated from the electric supply and such moving parts
have come to a dead stop.
 Check the machine for possible damage:
Before further use of the machine the safety devices must
−
be checked carefully for their proper and intended func-
tion.
Check whether movable parts function perfectly and do
−
not stick or whether parts are damaged. All parts must be
correctly installed and fulfil all conditions to ensure perfect
operation of the machine.
Damaged safety devices and parts must be properly re-
−
paired or exchanged by a recognized, specialist workshop;
insofar as nothing else is stated in the instructions for use.
Damaged or illegible safety labels have to be replaced.
−
 Store unused equipment in a dry, locked place out of the
reach of children.

Electrical safety

 Design of the connection cable according to IEC 60 245 (H 07
RN-F) with a core cross-section of at least
1.5 mm for cable lengths up to 25 m
2
−
2.5 mm for cable lengths over 25 m
2
−
 Long and thin connection lines result in a potential drop. The
motor does not reach any longer its maximal power; the func-
tion of the device is reduced.
 Plugs and coupler outlets on connection cables must be made
of rubber, plasticised PVC or other thermoplastic material of
same mechanical stability or be covered with this material.
 The connector of the connection cable must be splash-proof.
 When running the connection line observe that it does not
interfere, is not squeezed, bended and the plug connection
does not get wet.
 Keep the extension cable away from dangerous moving parts
to prevent damages to the cable, which can result in touching
live parts.
 Wind off completely the cable when using a cable drum.
 Do not use the cable for purposes for which it is not meant.
Protect the cable against heat, oil and sharp edges. Do not
use the cable to pull the plug from the socket.
 Regularly check the extension cables and replace them if they
are damaged.
 Do not use any defective connection cables.
 When working outdoors, only use extension cables especially
approved and appropriately labelled for outdoor use.
 Do not set up any provisional electrical connections.
 Never bypass protective devices or deactivate them.
 Only hook up the machine by means of a fault-current circuit
breaker (30 mA).
The electrical connection or repairs to electrical parts of
the machine must be carried out by a certified electri-
cian or one of our customer service points. Local regu-
lations – especially regarding protective measures –
must be observed.
Damaged mains leads must be replaced by the manu-
facturer or one of their service workshops or a similar
qualified person to prevent dangers.
Repairs to other parts of the machine must be carried
out by the manufacturer or one of his customer service
points.
Use only original spare. Accidents can arise for the user
through the use of other spare parts. The manufacturer
is not liable for any damage or injury resulting from
such action.
Behaviour in an emergency situation
 Initiate all required first aid measures suited for the injury and
seek qualified medical advice as quickly as possible.
 Protect the injured person against further injuries and immobi-
lise the injured person.
