It is important for the safe and proper operation of your machine that you make sure the safety labels are visible and legible. If your machine’s safety labels are missing, damaged or painted over, a replacement set of the labels can be sent to your arena at no cost. Safety labels are available in a number of languages besides English. Click Here to Request Safety Labels. 

Once you have received your safety labels, use the planogram instructions below for safety label placement on your machine.

Circle Check

Posted on by reena

The overall objective of the “circle check” on a Zamboni machine is to evaluate the ice resurfacer and its systems, as well as the environment in which it will be operated.

This list is not intended to be a comprehensive checklist and was created as a general guideline to encourage the circle check routine, based on a variety of machine models and features. Your machine model, features and options may vary and those specific items requiring attention should be added to your facility’s checklist and circle check routine.

The Zamboni Company Announces Formation of Zamboni Europe

Posted on by reena

For Immediate Release

New Company Supports European Ice Sports Industry Growth

BRANTFORD, ONTARIO, CANADA (March 5, 2018)
The Zamboni Company is proud to announce an agreement in principle to purchase our Zamboni Authorized Distributor in Sweden, Izomaskin AB. With this purchase, we will be renaming Izomaskin AB as Zamboni Europe. Zamboni Europe will continue to be located in Österfänebo, Sweden and will combine the strong manufacturing and service capabilities of Izomaskin AB with the proven and trusted Zamboni brand and products.

With thousands of Zamboni ice resurfacing machines in service all around the globe, the Zamboni Company has Zamboni Authorized Distributors and Service providers in place to locally serve the needs of the owners and operators of those products. Even with this formidable team, the continued growth of the European marketplace requires an enhanced presence.

With the facility in Sweden, Zamboni customers in Europe will benefit from the availability of locally stocked Zamboni Authentic Parts, as well as having a Zamboni Corporate office in the region.

“The local Zamboni Authorized Distributors in the European region do a great job representing and supporting the Zamboni brand and products. Over the past few years, it became clear that a corporate presence in Europe would benefit our network of Distributors as well as the owners and operators of our products.”, said Greg Dean, Vice President of Sales and Brand Management for the Zamboni Company.

For nearly seventy years, the Zamboni Company has been the leader in ice resurfacing technology and innovation. In the continuing legacy of its founder, Frank J. Zamboni, the Zamboni Company works to apply industrial science, proven performance, and future technologies into the development and manufacture of its ice resurfacing machines for ice rinks and arenas throughout the world.

No Riders

Posted on by reena

The Zamboni Company has had a consistently firm position against riders being on a resurfacer, other than the operator. The Zamboni ice resurfacer was designed and intended for use only as a special purpose machine and not as a recreational or promotional machine. The Zamboni Company’s warning labels, operating instructions, safety instructions and safety poster clearly state, “Do not permit riders on the Zamboni machine at any time” and “No Riders!” Any failure to adhere to the safety labels’ warnings, operating instructions and safety instructions must be considered a serious matter.

Some of the reasons for Zamboni’s position in the regard, among others, are as follows:

  • Proximity of dangerous moving parts and augers.
  • Proximity to very hot hydraliic oil lines and tank.
  • Uncertain protection against obstructions, slip-and-fall, etc.
  • Distraction of the driver from his primary responsibility.
  • Operator visibility.
  • Risks of injury.

For these reasons, Zamboni does not approve of and will not be responsible for any injury, death or property damage that might result from any unapproved use or of any unauthorized modification of the machine that would permit a rider to be on the machine.  In addition, be advised that all parties involved with the promotion of an additional rider or riders on a Zamboni ice resurfacer could be exposed to third party liability due to the general public’s exposure to such a promotion.

Be aware that the installation of a second seat raises other safety matters such as enhanced operator training, safety and warning instructions, additional operator responsibilities and the need for supplemental insurance coverage, etc.

Should you require additional information, please feel free to contact your Zamboni Authorized Distributor or The Zamboni Company directly.
