8. Emergency Preparedness: Have emergency procedures in place, including protocols for responding to fires, equipment malfunctions, and personnel injuries. Provide training to operators on emergency response protocols and the location of emergency equipment such as fire extinguishers and first aid kits.
9. Monitor Roasting Process: Continuously monitor the roasting process to ensure it is proceeding safely and efficiently. Be alert for any signs of equipment malfunction, unusual odors, or smoke, and take prompt action if any issues arise.
10. Follow Proper Shutdown Procedures: When shutting down the roasting cylinder, follow the manufacturer’s recommended procedures to safely cool down the equipment and secure it for storage. Ensure that all controls are properly turned off and secured.
