This Safe Work Procedure outlines safety measures for operating and maintaining the Heidelberg Cylinder Printing Press. Only trained and authorized personnel may operate the machine, following manufacturer-provided operating instructions. Pre-start checks include ensuring work areas, cylinders, tables, and moving parts are free from debris, verifying that all guards are properly fitted and operational, and testing emergency stop controls and alarms.
