1.4 Duty and liability
The Wire Stitching Machine EXACT-PLUS has been built according to state-of-the-art technology
under the observance of all the recognised safety regulations. It is, nevertheless, still possible when
using this machine to cause danger to life and limb of the user or a third party or to cause damage
to the machine or other property.
The machine should only be used,
• for the purpose for which it was designed
• when it is in a perfect technical condition
Faults that could reduce the levels of safety in using the machine must be removed immediately.
Warranties and liability on the part of the manufacturer are fundamentally covered by the regula-
tions laid down in our ”General sales and delivery conditions”.
1.5 Correct use of the machine
The Wire Stitching Machine EXACT-PLUS is designed exclusively stitching of brochures and
leaflets or similar items. Any use of the machine contrary to that described above is forbidden since
incorrect use of the machine can present a danger.
1.6 User requirements
The user of the machine is required to provide the required personal safety equipment. All existing
safety systems should be checked regularly.
1.7 Safety and protective systems
All safety and protective systems must be attached to the machine and should be in full working
order before every start-up of the machine.
Safety and protective systems may only be removed:
• when the machine is stationary and
• after it has been secured against being started up again.
1.8 Informal safety measures
The Operating Manual should be stored in such a way as to be permanently to hand at the
machine. There are also generally valid local regulations concerning accident prevention and envi-
ronmental protection measures that should be made available and observed, in addition to those
described in the Operating Instructions.
All safety and danger signs on the machine should be maintained in a legible condition and should
be renewed where necessary.

Basic safety precautions
Hohner Maschinenbau GmbH EXACT-PLUS 10/2010 7
1.10 Parts of the machine that are particularly dangerous
1.11 Servicing and repair work, elimination of faults
Mount the finger guard again after adjustment-, maintenance- and inspection work.
1.12 Structural modifications to the machine
Changes to the machine, additions or modifications may only be undertaken with the permission of
the manufacturer.
1.13 Cleaning the machine and the removal of waste products
The functionality of the machine and clean processing of the products can only be guaranteed over
a prolonged period of time, if the machine is regularly cleaned in accordance with the normal meth-
ods used in mechanical engineering.
Clean with mild, non-abrasive and non-scratch cleaners. Never use aggressive cleaning agents
such as e.g. solvents.
While doing this, it is particularly important to remove trimmed paper remnants
and paper dust regularly, as these can result in jamming of the machine and in
increased wear of its parts.
The machine contains bare metal parts. These should be cleaned regularly with a protective clean-
ing agent, especially when using the machine in rooms of high air humidity.
All substances and materials used (e.g. solvents and lubricants) must be handled appropriately and
removed in an environmentally friendly way.
1.14 Noise levels produced by the machine
The noise emitted by the machine when it is running does not exceed a value of 81 dB(A) as meas-
ured in accordance with DIN 45635, Part 27.
Quick stroke movements of the stitching heads!
Danger of crushing!
¾Before carrying out maintenance or repairs, take care that the power supply is switched off
and prevented from being switched on again accidentally.
¾Never operate the system without properly mounted finger guard.

is open. The plastic cover is electrically locked with the cut-out switch -2-, i.e. the machine cannot
be operated with open plastic cover.
2.1.4 Staggered stitch
To change-over from standard to "staggered stitching" remove the protecting cover. The protecting
cover is electrically locked with the cut-out switch -3-, i.e. the machine cannot be operated with
