Is this already covered by "offensive comments" and "sustained or repeated disruption"?

This is just meant to be a list of brief examples rather than the specific list of unwelcome behaviour.

If you think it is important can you make it a one liner and more generic? E.g. "Unwelcome political discussion"

"Unwelcome political discussion" covers it maybe - mostly aimed at the likes of certain members on telegram who love to bait people with discussions.

* Any other action that makes someone uncomfortable

These guidelines apply to our physical space, and all online forms of communication we use, including Telegram and the forum.

Good addition. Could you put this closer to the top of the page?

If I can work out how, yes :D


We expect anyone asked to stop doing something to stop immediately.

If you act or talk in a way that someone thinks is inappropriate, it is inappropriate.

Being safe goes beyond just using tools safely. It includes managing dust and fumes from your project, cleaning up after yourself and storing things correctly. If in doubt, please ask those around you.

Hackspace provides a basic array of PPE for use at the space. You must use any PPE stated as required on the risk assessment for the tool you are using.

If the PPE provided is broken, in poor condition or not there, please email <board@hacman.org.uk> or inform an area coordinator immediately so stock can be replenished.

## Look Out for One Another
Be aware of your surroundings and communicate risks with others. Let others know if they need to keep a distance from you while you use a tool. If you are about to use a tool that needs ear defenders, dust masks or other PPE, let others around you know and give them chance to get their own.

### Clean up after yourself
* Remove all hazards for the next person wanting to use the tool or area.
* Sweep or mop the floor.
* Check if you must maintain a presence in the area for a time after you finish the task to mitigate fire risks. (Eg. Welding)

## Lone working
Some tools are categorised as 'No Lone Working'. These are typically tools that could cause significant damage to you, impeding your ability to get help.

All of these tools are induction protected, and you will be informed during the induction if this applies. You can also check the [tool page]({{ links.members_portal }}/equipment) on the membership system.

Some examples include: Table saw, all mitre saws, metal mill, CNC mill, all lathes.

If you are using a no lone working tool, you must find a 'safety partner', and inform them you will be using a no lone working tool. They must be able to hear you from where they are, and you should make sure they understand how to stop the machine in an emergency.

This is the information and schematics doc for the CNC **Auxiliary Control Panel** located on the right side of the enclosure above the emergency stop.

**ELECTRICAL WARNING: The inside of this panel is 240VAC. This is dangerous voltage and should be unlocked only by competent persons. The cabinet is locked and should be kept locked. Always switch off and unplug at source before unlocking the panel.**

**WARNING: This panel is critical infrastructure. Maintainers should consult the team leader before opening it. They should also heed the electrical warning above.**

The auxiliary control Panel is isolated from the CNC itself and is served by a different circuit. Despite the LED's on the panel, the 12VDC PSU inside is not connected to any battery, and no battery is present within the enclosure. Beware when opening the enclosure that wiring is tight, and to not yoink it open.

The incoming AC (1.5mm2) comes into the rocker switch and the other side of the rocker switch terminates on the wagos. The 3d printed wago mounts are coloured red, blue, and green for live, neutral, and earth. The earth also has a termination point on the cabinet screw. The wagos power the switches and the internal 12VDC PSU

The switches are all 4 pole, meaning they each have an incoming and outgoing live and neutral. They are rated for up to 70VDC as well as AC, but be careful when putting >24VDC over them. The switch off (bottom) positions have the incoming connections for the appliances, whilst the switch on (top) positions have power provided from the WAGO's.

Outside the panel, the LEDS are served by a C13/C14 (kettle lead male and female) pairing for a quick disconnect, and the extractor is served by a C19/C20 pairing (an industrial high capacity version of the above). Any maintainer can safely disconnect these for maintenance , and if you find them disconnected, please just reconnect. The ventilation fan (mounted on the wall to outside) is directly wired to the panel, so there is no disconnect.

The Thermometer has a direct run to the coolant line for the spindle. There is plenty of extra room in the cable (next to the main cnc enclosure)

The switch layout is as follows from left to right: (as you view the closed panel) All switches are AC except for 4.

1. Ventilation Fan
2. Main LED Light for CNC Enclosure
3. Extractor/Vacuum
4. The thermometer (This is running at 12VDC, not AC)
5. Dummy - Not connected yet
