Examples of the correct adjustment of various tool types:
Tool class 1: Pointed tools
For these tools we recommend alignment to 
the left-hand bending line. The distance from 
the bending line to the front segments of the 
protected field is >15 mm.
Tool class 2: Semi-circular tools
For these tools we recommend alignment to 
the left-hand bending line. The distance from 
the front bending line of the tool to the front 
segments of the protected field is <15 mm. 
The rear bending line of the tool is detected 
by the protected field. The position of the 
front bending line must be considered in the 
hazard analysis.
Tool class 2: Stamp
For these tools we recommend alignment to 
the central bending line. The distance from 
the front bending line of the tool to the front 
segments of the protected field is <15 mm. 
The rear bending line of the tool is detected 
by the protected field. The position of the 
front bending lines must be considered in the 
hazard analysis.
Tool class 3: Stamp
The front and rear bending lines of the tool 
are outside the protected field. The position 
of the bending lines must be considered in 
the hazard analysis.
