12.8.3. Safety issues

Unattended Operation

Depending upon the material processed, milling introduces some risks.
It is a good rule to keep an eye on a milling job being executed.
Pay special attention to:
• Do not leave the machine running if the vacuum cleaner can be over-filled. This might cause

damage, or in worst case a fire if the suction house is clogged.

• Ensure the filter inside the vacuum cleaner is cleaned regulary.
• Be aware the risk of suction tube clogging.
