2-4 Safety Features
Motor Starter
A magnetic motor starter with control transformer must be used when safety switches are
installed. Manual starters should not be used under any conditions.
Safety Switches
Safety switches at all access covers are wired into the starter control circuit. The machine
cannot be started when these parts are open. However, for safety purposes, the machine
should be disconnected from the power lines by a disconnect switch or by removing the plug
from its receptacle. Check all safety switches periodically for proper operation.
Safety Tags
A set of metal plates are attached to the machine to warn of potential danger.
Brake Motors (Optional)
An integral brake stops the motor within a few seconds of actuation of the stop button, greatly
reducing the time required for the rotor to stop.
Sound Reduction Equipment
Sound reduction equipment will bring the sound level of your machine to within the
limitations of the Occupational Safety and Health Act. Material, part configuration, feed rate,
and ambient noise level must be specified at the time of inquiry.
