HAZARDOUS

VOLTAGE SAFETY

PLATE

(Located on the door of the

jackscrew console)
Always call for the services

of a licensed electrician

when you think that there is

an electrical problem. Never

open any electrical panel if

you are not a licensed

electrician. Touching the

wrong terminals may result

in serious injury or death.

ROTATING KNIVES SAFETY PLATE

(One located on the front of the cutting chamber and
one on the front of the cradle)
The rotating knives are razor-sharp to the touch.

Always verify that the rotor is not moving. Avoid

personal injury by making sure that the rotor is

stopped and the power is disconnected and locked

out before opening the machine. A motion sensor

monitors the rotor and disables the hydraulic

cylinder/jackscrew controls if there is movement. If

you see the rotor spinning after opening the machine,

immediately shut down the machine and call for

service.

Wear protective gloves whenever you work around

the rotor knives. To avoid jamming your fingers

between the rotor knives and the bed knives, refer to

the information for safely clearing a jammed cutting

chamber later in this section.
