2 Safety
Personnel
The Equipment may only be operated by the operating personnel and any
person operating the Equipment must use the Personal Protective Equipment
prescribed by the applicable Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). For
normal operation the Equipment does not have demands exceeding such
typical policies (e.g. safety shoes and safety glasses) for laboratory
operations. For trouble shooting including inspection internal hot surfaces of
the Equipment, safety gloves may be needed.
The following work must be carried out solely by qualified personnel:
Servicing the wiring (electrical equipment) of the Equipment
Working on the safety features
Maintenance and repair
Setting the parameters on the operator panel
The supervisor must check the Equipment regularly and instruct the
operating personnel about safe work practices at regular intervals. The
operators must inform their supervisor about any changes in the operational
behaviour of the Equipment. For this purpose, we recommend to keep an
Operator’s Log specifying the basic technical data of the Equipment, the
names of the employees including the date of their training and
authorisation, data regarding maintenance, safety tests and inspections,
including the remedy of any defects, etc. A template of such an Operator’s
Log is provided in chapter Annexes in the Maintenance Manual.

4.1 Transport
When delivered by FLSmidth, the Equipment is packed in a wooden box
(seaworthy packing) and securely fixed to a pallet therefore it can be
transported with a suitable forklift device.
The packaging is environmentally friendly, disposable and is re-usable.
The Equipment may be transported (packed or unpacked) to its final location
using following approved transport facilities:
Forklift
Transport devices that serve like a forklift (e.g. pallet jack)
Mobile crane
Overhead crane with crane trolley
Warning
Danger that the transported object can fall
Transport of the Equipment must only be carried out by qualified staff
Use only transport facilities that meet the actual safety regulations and
are designed for this purpose and for an adequate load carrying
capacity (in accordance with the Equipment transport data)
Secure the Equipment with suitable transport aids against tilting and
slipping; it must be transported without swinging
Ensure that all transport routes are cleared and if possible at a ground
floor level
Danger
Danger from “blind” transportation
Collision of the Equipment with obstacles is to be absolutely avoided!
It must be absolutely ensured that there is visual contact between the crane
/forklift driver and the load. If this is not possible then
Use a guide person who will oversee and control the transportation
Use clear signals for communicating between the crane driver and the
guide person when there is visual contact, otherwise use signalling or
intercom Equipment
Danger
Danger for people from the transported Equipment
Ensure that nobody is standing in danger zone or below the Equipment
during transportation!
