Document Summary
This Safe Work Procedure outlines safety measures for operating, maintaining, and cleaning digital offset colour presses. Only trained and authorized personnel may handle these machines. General precautions include ensuring all guards and covers are fitted and functional, avoiding contact with moving parts, and wearing close-fitting clothing. Operators must also prevent skin and eye contact with inks, imaging oil, and cleaning chemicals and maintain proper ventilation.
Specific safety protocols include disconnecting and locking out power before servicing, using heat-resistant gloves for hot surfaces, and ensuring proper storage of flammable consumables like inks and IPA in fire-proof cabinets. Cleaning and maintenance tasks require locking out the main power, using appropriate tools, and avoiding contamination or unsafe handling of chemicals. Emergency stop buttons are to be used cautiously to prevent damage to the press. Adherence to these guidelines ensures safe operation and compliance with manufacturer instructions.
