General safety information

3.6.1 Responsibilities of the operator

 Keep this manual in the immediate vicinity of the machine in order to be accessible at all times to all

persons working on the machine.

 The user must provide that the machine is only operated in perfect condition.

 A fire extinguisher must always be handy as the laser beam can ignite flammable materials.

 Do not store any flammable materials in the inside of the device or in the immediate vicinity of the de-

vice. Particularly leftovers of produced materials have to be removed to prevent fire hazard.

 The operator must guarantee the cleanness and accessibility at and around the machine by correspond-

ing instructions and controls.

3.6.2 Responsibilities and requirements of the user

 The machine must only be operated by trained and authorized personnel.

 For all activities concerning installation, set-up, start-up, operation, modifications of conditions and meth-

ods of operation, maintenance, inspection and repair, the switch-off procedures that may be provided in

the Operation Manual must be observed.

 It is the duty of the operator, to check the machine before start of work for externally visible damage and

defects, and to immediately report changes that appear (including behaviour during operation) that affect

the safety.

 Preparation, retooling, change of work piece, maintenance and repair activities must only performed with

equipment switched off, by trained personnel.

 Principally, no safety components may be removed or disabled (already here we emphasize the immi-

nent dangers, for example severe burns, loss of eye-sight). If the removal of safety components is re-

quired during repair and service, the replacement of the safety components must be performed immedi-

ately after completion of the service and repair activities.

 No working methods are permitted that affect the safety of the machine.

 It is absolutely forbidden for anyone who is under the influence of drugs, alcohol or reaction-impairing

medication to work or work with the machine.

 The scopes of competence for the different activities in the scope of operating the machine must be

clearly defined and observed, so that under the aspect of safety no unclear questions of competence

occur. This applies in particular to activities on the electric equipment, which must only be performed by

special experts.
