Document Summary

This Safe Work Procedure outlines safety measures for operating, maintaining, and cleaning digital plotter cutters. Only trained and authorized personnel may use the equipment. General precautions include ensuring the machine is securely mounted, connecting the power lead to a protected outlet, and placing the machine in an accessible area. The work area must remain clear of obstructions, and good handling practices must be observed.

Operational guidelines emphasize avoiding contact with exposed knives and moving parts, wearing suitable gloves when handling knives, and keeping pinch rollers in the "up" position when the machine is not in use to maintain performance. Cleaning and maintenance tasks require switching off and isolating the machine, using isopropyl alcohol or mild detergent for cleaning, and properly disposing of used blades. Proper PPE, such as eye and hand protection, is mandatory during maintenance. These practices ensure safe operation and long-term functionality.
