Basic information about servicing and maintenance work

•Always turn off the machine and disconnect the power supply before undertaking any maintenance work.

Warning!

All cables designated , and all cables with orange cladding will remain live even after turning off at the main switch!

•Once the plant is turned off, prevent it from being turned back on again by blocking the relevant main switch. If necessary, warning signs should also be put up at the main switches to alert others to maintenance work in progress.

•Due to the need for special tools, we recommend that maintenance and lubrication work be carried out by the POLAR After-Sales Ser- vice.

•Compliance must be assured with the legislation on electrical plants or systems, hydraulic and/or pneumatic equipment as applicable in the country of use.

•In the event of defective safety equipment, e.g. safety light barriers, protective covers, etc., the machine/system must be taken out of operation and repaired immediately.

•All safety signs on the machine/system must be in impeccable and easily identifiable condition. Replace safety signs if this is not the case.

•Proceed as follows if maintenance work necessitates stepping onto individual system components, e.g. lubrication of gripper components on the

cutting machine rear table or conveyor lines:

Before stepping onto conveyor units, pallets or cutting machine rear table:

Cover surfaces to be stepped on with cardboard and secure cardboard in place with adhesive tape.

Warning! Slippery underfooting: Risk of slipping! After finishing the works:

Totally remove cardboard and adhesive tape as well as any remains of adhesive tape from the surfaces.

•For lubrication dismantle any guards at the guide units. Assemble the guards immediately after the maintenance work has been performed (Safety!).

•After lubrication:

Use a rag to remove any excessive lubricant (greases, oils) completely which seeps out, especially above the table surfaces that contact the material to be cut.

•The specified maintenance intervals are based on an operating time of 8 hours / day. For multi-shift operation the maintanance intervals need to be adapted correspondingly.
