3.0 UNPACKING If the machine is supplied wrapped in plastic sheet, any accessories, spare parts and expendables are packed in cardboard boxes and positioned on top of the worktable. To remove the packing, cut the plastic wrap, taking care not to damage the machine or cardboard box. Remove any accessories from on top of the worktable, check the contents correspond to the order and to the accompanying documentation. After removing the plastic, unbolt the lag bolts from the skid.
Section 4.0 4.0 HANDLING, TRANSPORT AND POSITIONING For handling the packed machine, as described above (see section 3.0), it is necessary to use special lifting equipment whose maximum lifting capacity must be no lower than the total weight of the press. THE TOTAL WEIGHT OF THE PRESS PLUS PACKING IS SHOWN ON THE ADHESIVE TABS PLACED ON THE PACKING AND ON THE ACCOMPANYING DOCUMENTS. For loading and unloading the machine, lifting straps are to be used positioned as shown in Fig. 04. 4.
4.2 POSITIONING THE PRESS Simple precautions are necessary for correctly positioning the press. Always consider the safety aspect not only in relation to the work carried out with the press, but also to the dangers originated by the other machines in the workplace.
Section 5.0 5.0 COMMISSIONING AND STARTING This section describes the operations to be followed on commissioning along with some advice for starting the machine for the first time. 5.1 FILLING THE PRESS WITH OIL To fill the press, use exclusively the oils indicated in the table or ones of equivalent reliability. The choice must be made considering the environmental conditions and the operating features of the press.
5.3 AIR DISCHARGE After the first start-up, or after maintenance carried out on elements of the system (e.g. cylinders, filters, pipes, changing oil) a considerable quantity of air may be present in the circuit. Irregular operation, noise, and/or uneven cylinder movement highlight the presence of air. It is necessary to discharge the air as follows: - Pump ram down to the maximum stroke. - Loosen the upper nipple of the press cylinder and wrap it in a cloth to avoid oil splashes.
Section 6.0 6.0 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS THE MANUFACTURER DECLINES ALL LIABILITY FOR DAMAGE TO THINGS OR PERSONS CAUSED BY NONOBSERVANCE OF THE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS GIVEN IN THIS MANUAL WHICH SUPPLEMENT THE CURRENT LEGAL REGULATIONS IN WORKPLACES. IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT FOR THE OPERATOR TO UNDERSTAND ALL THE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS LISTED BELOW IN ORDER TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO THEMSELVES, TO THINGS OR TO OTHERS.
Section 7.0 7.0 OPERATION Before starting any operations, make sure there are no other persons in the immediate vicinity of the machine. IT IS STRICTLY FORBIDDEN TO PASS UNDER THE WORK TABLE. 7.1 CONTROLS To make the press work you have to stroke the pump control lever. The feed speed of the cylinder and the pressure will depend on the driving speed of the pump control lever.
Section 8.0 8.0 MAINTENANCE AUTHORIZED AND TRAINED PERSONNEL MUST CARRY OUT ROUTINE MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS. ALL MAINTENANCE OR CLEANING OPERATIONS MUST BE DONE WITH THE MASTER SWITCH OFF. (IF EQUIPPED) SPECIAL MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS (REPAIRS) MUST BE CARRIED OUT BY THE MANUFACTURER’S PERSONNEL ON THE PREMISES OF THE MANUFACTURER OR BY SUITABLY TRAINED AND SPECIALIZED PERSONNEL UPON AUTHORIZATION BY THE MANUFACTURER.
8.3 CLEANING CARRY OUT THE CLEANING OPERATIONS EVERY WEEK. It is a good rule to carry out periodical cleaning of the press in order to eliminate foreign bodies (e.g. dust, extraneous and dirty substances, etc.). Eliminate all foreign bodies from the piston rod that could damage both the surface of the rod and the cylinder gaskets. While cleaning, use detergent substances that are not harmful, do not pollute and are in conformity with the law.
Section 10.0 10.0 PUTTING OUT OF SERVICE In the case of putting away for a long period it is necessary to empty the unit of oil and protect it suitably so there is no dust, moisture, or other foreign bodies, exposed to the unit that can damage the parts of the unit. When putting into operation after a period of storage, meticulously follow ALL the indications of Section 5.0. Section 11.0 11.
