Safety
Equipment Labels
These safety labels can appear on the equipment. If ignored, physical injury, death, or equipment damage can occur. Read the safety information in the equipment operation guides before the equipment is installed, operated, or maintained.
WARNING Electrical Shock
Dangerous voltages. Do not access areas with this label before the applicable safety precautions are done; lockout/tagout the power and make sure there is no voltage on the circuits before installation, maintenance, or other work is done.
Lock Out Power
Do not do maintenance or service the equipment when the primary power disconnect is ON, unlocked, or when the pump is in operation. Always do standard lockout/tagout procedures before installation or maintenance work.
Wear Eye Protection
Always wear approved safety glasses when the abrasive waterjet system is operated. Other types of glasses do not give sufficient eye protection! The garnet abrasive is not a chemical irritant, but garnet can cause an eye injury like sand if it is not quickly flushed. Also, the catcher tank water can contain particles from the material or other chemical irritants. Have an eye-wash station near the work area if the abrasive spray gets into the eyes.
Read the product labels and refer to product Safety Data Sheets (SDS) to identify the properties and risks of chemical products and materials referenced in this document. Use good industrial hygiene, safety practices, and personal protective equipment identified in the SDS.
Wear Gloves
The catcher tank water can have dangerous bacteria in it. A small break in the skin can introduce the dangerous bacteria into a wound. Always wear protective gloves if there are cuts or wounds on the hands or fingers. When material is put on or removed from the slat bed, wear gloves that give protection against sharp metal edges.
Read the product labels and refer to product Safety Data Sheets (SDS) to identify the properties and risks of chemical products and materials referenced in this document. Use good industrial hygiene and safety practices. Use personal protective equipment as specified in the SDS.
Read Manual
Read the equipment operation guide for important safety information and operation instructions. Do not operate this machine until all safety precautions and operation instructions are read and understood.
Electrostatic Discharge
Attention! Be careful when electrostatic-sensitive devices are touched. Use electrostatic discharge protection procedures.
