Maintenance
DANGER: Pinch Hazard
Never remove or disable safety devices to sustain production. Operating
without these devices could lead to hazardous conditions that can cause
severe injury. Take all necessary precautions when working around moving
parts to prevent body parts and clothing from being pulled into the machine.
WARNING: Voltage hazard
This equipment is powered by alternating current, as specified on the
machine serial tag and data plate. Do not operate the equipment at
power levels other than what is specified on the machine serial tag and
data plate.
A properly sized conductive ground wire from the incoming power
supply must be connected to the chassis ground terminal inside the
electrical enclosure. Improper grounding can result in severe personal
injury and erratic machine operation.
Before performing maintenance or repairs on this product, disconnect
and lock out electrical power sources to prevent injury from unexpected
energization or start-up. A lockable device has been provided to isolate
this product from potentially hazardous electricity.
DANGER: Sharp Blades!
Most injuries caused by knife blades occur when the cutter has been
turned off. Handle blades with care at all times.
• Always wear cut-resistant gloves when the cutting chamber is open and
when handling blades.
• Always lock out power to the cutter before opening the cutting chamber.
• Always wait until the cutter head has completely stopped before opening
the knife guard.
CSC cutters are equipped with several safety devices to ensure safe
operation. Never remove or disable these devices to sustain production.
Operating without these devices can cause severe injury.
• When the knife guard is opened, the knife guard switch stops the cutter.
• Two proximity-type safety switches prevent operation unless the cutter
bushings are in place.
• The Cutter Stop button activates a circuit that stops the knife.
