SAFEGUARDING THE POINT OF OPERATION

ANSI B11.2 - Hydraulic Power Presses -

Safety Requirements for Construction, Care, and Use

It is important that Dake press users have a clear understanding of their responsibility involving the care
and use of their Dake hydraulic press, including point-of-operation safe guards. Dake strongly
recommends that Dake press users obtain a copy of the current American National Standard Institute
(ANSI) B11.2 standard, for a more complete understanding of their responsibilities.

ANSI B11.2 states the following, relative to point of operation safeguarding:

“Normally, only the employer (press user) can determine the requirements of the press productions
system components, including the dies and methods for feeding. Therefore, the employer is ultimately
responsible to designate and provide the point-of-operation safeguarding system.”

The standard also discusses additional responsibilities of the employer. Some of the key responsibilities
are:

• The employer is responsible for the safety, use, and care of the hydraulic power press production
system.

• The employer is responsible to consider the sources of hazards for all tasks to be implemented on
the hydraulic power press production system.

• The employer is required to eliminate or control identified hazards in the scope of their work activity.

• The employer is responsible for the training of personnel, caring for, inspecting, maintaining, and

operating hydraulic press production systems to ensure their competence.

• The employer is responsible to provide and ensure that point-of-operation safeguarding is used,
checked, maintained, and where applicable, adjusted on every production operation performed on a
press production system.

A complete and current copy of the ANSI B.11.2 standard can be obtained by contacting the following:
