Assist in fabricating or modifying molds when required. Follow manufacturer specifications during installation or modification, including adjustments to components like side cores and guide pins.
Keep the machine and surrounding work area clean, organized, and free of hazards. Comply with safety protocols, use appropriate PPE (such as gloves, safety glasses, protective clothing, and heat-resistant gear), and ensure guards, interlocks, and emergency stops are functioning .
