Overview of the 990-H Door Hanging System
Overview of the 990-H Door Hanging System
KVAL's 990-H is the fastest and most productive pre-hanging system available in the industry.
The 990-H will rout and chisel a door and jamb for three hinges, drill pilot holes for the hinge
screws, mortise for the lock, and apply three hinges. This machine is generally used in conjunction with the ON-2012 for in-feed and out-feed operations. Functions include hinge and faceplate
routing and boring for lock and bolt. Standard features include automatic hinge routing, pre-drill,
and hinge application for three hinge butts on both door and jamb. The machine also includes
automatic door width adjustment to accommodate mixed stacks and automatic door positioning
with a two-speed feed belt system.
Operation: Door is automatically positioned while the operator loads and clamps the hinge jamb.
Routing and boring occur while the operator places hinges into the nests of the three hinge applicators.

Safety Sheet Sign-Off Sheet
At the end of this chapter, there is a safety sign-of f sheet. It lists personnel and machine safety criteria to understand before operating the machine. It is highly recommended that personnel operating, working on a machine meet the criteria listed in this sheet. It is recommended the sheet be
signed and kept for records. See “Safety Sign-Off Sheet” on page 1-14.
Safety Terminology of Labels
In addition to the nameplate, KVAL machines may have other warning labels or decals that provide safety information to operators. Safety labels should be clearly visible to the operator and
must be replaced if missing, damaged, or illegible.
There are three types of warning labels or decals:
• DANGER means if the danger is not avoided, it will cause death or serious injury.
• WARNING means if the warning is not heeded, it can cause death or serious
injury.
• CAUTION means if the precaution is not taken, it may cause minor or moderate
injury.
Safety Guidelines
In addition to the caution and warning labels affixed to the 990-H system, follow the guidelines
below to help ensure the safety of equipment and personnel.

ear protection.
Protective Gear
• Never reach hands beyond safety cage. Servo
motors can unexpectedly move quickly.
• Never clear screws or hinges out of the machine
while it is running.
• Never reach into the router area to retrieve a
hinge. The router may still be running down
after shut down.
• Never perform any maintenance unless machine

• Never clean the machine while it is running.
• Never walk away from the machine while it is
running.
When the Machine is ON

plies, air supply and pressure, spring tension, weight shifts, etc.).
2. Inform all affected personnel of the eminent shutdown, and the duration of the shut-
down.
3. Obtain locks, keys, and tags from your employer’s lockout center.
4. Disconnect power:
a.Turn the disconnect switches on the main electrical panel to the OFF position.
Then pull out the red tab and place a padlock through the hole. Place your tag
on the padlock, as per the tagout guidelines below. (see illustration below).

Starting the equipment properly is just as important as the lockout/tagout guidelines in terms of
safety.
Start-up Guidelines
The following guidelines below should be followed to start the equipment.
Inspect
The equipment must be inspected for proper adjustment before starting equipment.
Clean Up
All materials and debris must be cleaned up. Any combustible materials or old parts used during repairs must be cleaned up and/or properly disposed of.
Replace Guards
Replace all equipment guards. If part of equipment cannot be properly adjusted after start-up with guard on, contact the KVAL Service team. See “Contacting KVAL” on page 1-2.
Check Controls
Confirm that all switches are in the “OFF” position. Please be advised that some components of the machine may start automatically when energy is restored.
Remove Locks
Each operator must remove his or her own lock and tag. This will ensure that all operators are in a safe place when the equipment is started.
Perform Visual Checks
If the equipment is too large to see all around it, station personnel around the area and
sound the personnel alarm before starting the equipment. If your operation is more
complex, your company’
s comprehensive safety procedure may involve additional
steps. You will need to ask your supervisor about these procedures. The company’s
lockout procedure should be posted at each machine. On larger or long-term maintenance or installation projects, the company’s procedures must be explained to all new
operators and a copy of the company’
s procedures should be posted on-site for the
duration of the work.
