7 Put out of commission
Decommissioning should be undertaken in a safe and controlled manner.
This section details the items which must be done for this
decommissioning.
7.1 Disconnect the power sources
The main power isolator must be turned off and 'locked off' or power
permanently removed from the isolator. If the isolator is mounted on the
Spiral Elevator the power supply must be permanently removed from the
isolator.
This is to ensure that there can be no electrical supply to the gear motor
connections either before or after the gear motor is removed.
.
Danger: First switch off the main switch before the power source
may be disconnected.
7.2 Disassemble
While dismounting the machine, the regulations for waste processing
applicable for the country and local authorities at the time of the dismantling
are to be complied with.
The machine only contains commonly known materials.
At the time of assembly and delivery of the Spiral Elevator there were
processing possibilities for these materials and no particular risks were
known for persons involved in the dismantling process.
The disassembly of the Spiral Elevator generally requires few operations.
Depending upon the height of the Spiral Elevator it may be required to lay
the Spiral Elevator horizontal. If this is necessary the procedure for this is
generally the reverse of the procedure used to stand up the elevator
detailed in section 4.
.
Note! At the time of assembling the Spiral Elevator there were
processing possibilities for the various materials within the unit
and no particular risks were known for persons involved in the
dismantling process.
