PLACEMENT WITHIN THE SHOP
This machine should be installed and operated only on
a solid, flat and stable floor that is able to support the
weight of the machine (330 lbs - 150 kg) and the opera-
tor. Using the dimensions shown as a guideline, plan for
placement within your shop that will allow the operator
to work unencumbered and unobstructed by foot traf-
fic (either passing shop visitors or other shop workers) or
other tools or machinery.
ESTABLISHING A SAFETY ZONE
For shops with frequent visitors or multiple operators,
it is advisable to establish a safety zone around shop
machinery. A clearly defined “no-go” zone on the floor
around each machine can help avoid accidents that
could cause injury to either the operator or the shop
visitor.
It is advisable to take a few moments to either paint
(using non-slip paint) or using tape, define on the floor
the limits or perimeter of each machines safety zone.
Take steps to ensure that all operators and shop visi-
tors are aware that these areas are off limits whenever
a machine is running for everyone but the individual
operating the unit.
