Instruction Manual

Periodic Checkout Procedures

6.3 Daily Checkout

Perform this checkout procedure at every shift change, power-

up and machine set-up change. During continuous machine

run periods, this checkout must be performed at intervals not to

exceed 24 hours. A Designated Person or Qualified Person (as

defined in Section 1.18) must perform the procedure; checkout

results should be recorded and kept on or near the guarded

machine, per OSHA 1910.217(e)(1).
1. Verify that access to the guarded area is not possible from

any area not protected by the safeguards interfaced with

the safety system that includes the MMD-TA-1..B module.

Hard guarding, or supplemental presence-sensing devices

must be installed, wherever needed, to prevent any person

from reaching around the light grid or entering into the

hazard area. Verify that all supplemental guarding devices

and hard guarding are in place and operating properly.

2. Verify that the safeguards interfaced with the safety system

that includes the MMD-TA-1..B module have been properly

installed and maintained. See relevant instruction manuals

or data sheets.

3. Verify that it is not possible for a person to access the

hazard(s), undetected by the safeguards interfaced with the

safety system that includes the MMD-TA-1..B module or by

other supplemental guarding (as described in appropriate

standards).

4. Verify that the Reset switch is mounted outside the guarded

area, out of reach of anyone inside the guarded area, and

that the key or other means of preventing inadvertent use is

in place.

5. Verify the system(s) checkout procedures for the external

safety systems connected to the MSSI and the SSI inputs

as described by the appropriate manuals.

6. Initiate machine motion of the guarded machine and, during

the cycle, generate a stop command from the safeguarding

device. Do not attempt to insert anything into the dangerous

parts of the machine. Upon issuing the stop command,

the dangerous parts of the machine should come to a stop

with no apparent delay. Upon reset of the safeguard and

the Module, verify that the machine does not automatically

restart, and that the initiation devices must be engaged to

restart the machine.

7. With the guarded machine at rest, generate a stop

command from the safeguarding device(s) and verify that

it is not possible for the guarded machine to be put into

motion.

8. Check carefully for external signs of damage or changes to

the safety system that includes the MMD-TA-1..B module,

the interfaced safeguards, the guarded machine, and their

electrical wiring. Any damage or changes found should be

immediately reported to management.

If any of these checks fail, do not attempt to use the safety

system that includes the MMD-TA-1..B module until the

reason for the failure(s) is identified and corrected.

6.4 Semi-Annual Checkout

Perform this checkout procedure every six months following

the safety system that includes the MMD-TA-1..B module

installation. A Qualified Person (as defined in Section 1.18) must

perform the procedure; checkout results should be recorded and

kept on or near the guarded machine, per OSHA 1910.217(e)(1).
1. Perform the commissioning checkout procedure (Section

6.2) If any decrease in machine braking ability has

occurred, make the necessary clutch/brake repairs, readjust

safeguard separation distance (Ds) appropriately, record

the new Ds calculation, and re-perform the Daily Checkout

procedure.

2. Examine and test the machine primary control elements

(MPCEs) and any intermediary controls (such as interface

modules) to verify that they are functioning correctly and

are not in need of maintenance or replacement.

3. Inspect the guarded machine to verify that no other

mechanical or structural problems could prevent the

machine from stopping or assuming an otherwise safe

condition when signalled to do so by the safety system that

includes the MMD-TA-1..B module.

4. Examine and inspect the machine controls and connections

to the safety system that includes the MMD-TA-1..B module

to verify that no modifications have been made which

adversely affect the System.

If any of these checks fail, do not attempt to use the safety

system that includes the MMD-TA-1..B module until the

reason for the failure(s) is identified and corrected.
