ELECTRICAL LOCKOUT OF KING PRESS EQUIPMENT
The electrical feed to a King Press comes through the large D.C. motor control enclosure (main drive for press).
This enclosure has an "OFF-ON" handle mounted at the upper right hand side of the front door. Turn this handle
to the off position, and padlock it in this position before service or maintenance. If there is more than one power
source to the press such as twin drives, motorized KJ8A/KJ40 delivery, or accessory equipment, each one must
be locked out as described above.
If there is more than one D.C. motor controller on a press, each one must be locked out as described above.
PNEUMATIC LOCKOUT OF KING PRESS EQUIPMENT
A lockout type three-way-valve is provided on the input to the main regulator-filter-lubricator assembly mounted
on the back of the folder. When this valve is in the “OFF” position, it will stop air from flowing to the press, and
bleed the press air pressure to zero PSI. This valve can be pad locked in this position for service and
maintenance.
