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.
