Matters needing attention

When you press the emergency stop/safety button, you interrupt the power supply to the main line and stop the machine. Remember: this does not exclude all the power sources of the machine!
The person who presses the emergency stop button before the machine starts up again must be the same person who releases the emergency stop button. Most devices will give you an additional warning period before starting the machine again
