2.4 Basic Safety Precautions and Practices

Compliance with the following recommended precautions and practices reduces the risk of personal

injury or damage to property during system operation and maintenance.

WARNING!

Failure to comply with any of the safety recommendations could cause serious

injury to the user or damage to the FlexTRAK-2MB system.

2.4.1 Safety of Personnel

• Only trained personnel should be permitted to perform operation, maintenance, and

troubleshooting procedures.

• There should always be a second person present when performing maintenance on a system

that is powered up.

• Locate, identify, and obey all safety warning labels on your system before initial use, see

2.8 Safety Warning Labels.

• Immediately push the red Emergency Machine Off (EMO) button if personnel are in danger

of being injured.

• Unplug power source before performing service or maintenance on the material handler.

• Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry while operating the material handler. Tie back long

hair to prevent it from being caught in moving parts.

• Make sure the main power cable and main air supply hose are securely connected before

operating the system.

• If in a confined room, ensure adequate and uninterrupted air ventilation, heating, and

cooling to meet environmental stress limits of personnel and the material handler.

• Where Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) emissions can exceed safe limits, facility

ventilation and filtration systems must be operational.

• Provide adequate space around the material handler to allow for movement of maintenance

and service personnel. Allow space for access doors and service panels to open fully.

• Make sure all facility power sources are safely grounded.

• Routinely inspect all air hoses and electrical cables for damage.

• Before attempting to lift a load, take into consideration facility lifting and transport

precautions, see 2.7 Lifting and Transport Precautions.

• Maintain a clean and orderly work area.

2.4.2 Material Safety

• Follow Safety Data Sheet (SDS) recommendations for the proper handling, cleanup, and

disposal of all materials and fluids and their containers (i.e., syringes, cups, reservoirs, etc.)

used with the FlexTRAK-2MB system.

• Obtain the SDS from the applicable chemical supplier for chemical substances not provided

with the equipment. These chemical substances include those used for processing,

maintenance, and service of the equipment.

• Follow SDS recommendations for the proper handling and disposal of all materials used for

cleaning equipment and spills.

• Always wear appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) as recommended by facility

safety practices and the material manufacturer’s SDS.

• Cleaning media, tools, or other objects that are not part of system operation may not be

stored in the FlexTRAK-2MB system.

• If possible, save or recycle unused materials. Refer to the SDS before saving or recycling

unused materials.

2.4.3 Preventing System and workpiece Damage

• Immediately push the EMO button if the FlexTRAK-2MB system or a workpiece is in

danger of being damaged.

• Use standard Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) precautions when working near sensitive

components. Always wear a grounding strap and connect it to the ESD ground before

handling workpieces.

• Immediately contain and clean up any caustic or conductive fluid spills as recommended in

the material manufacturer’s SDS. If fluid gets into internal portions of the machine,

immediately contact Technical Support.

• Follow all recommended system maintenance procedures.

• Always keep the work area clear of any fallen workpieces or obstacles.

• Ensure that no air intake or exhaust grilles are blocked when the system is in operation.
