3.3 Storage
ATTENTION!
Improper storage may cause important parts to be damaged or destroyed.
Store packed or unpacked parts only under the intended environmental conditions.
Consult JPW (Tool) AG if the lathe and accessories have to be stored for a period of over
three months or under different environmental conditions to those given here.
3.4 Installation and assembly
3.4.1 Requirements of the installation site
Organize the work area around the lathe in accordance with local safety regulations.
Operation, maintenance and repair in the work area must not be hindered.
INFORMATION
The mains plug of the lathe must be freely accessible.
3.4.2 Load suspension point
ė
Fasten the load suspension gear around the lathe bed.
ė
Make sure that you distribute the loads evenly so that the lathe cannot turn over while lifting.
ė
Make sure that no add-on pieces or varnished parts are damaged due to the load suspension.
3.4.3 Installation
WARNING!
Danger of crushing and overturning. The lathe must be installed by at least 2 people.
ė
Check the horizontal orientation of the base of the lathe with a spirit level.
ė
Check that the foundation has sufficient floor-load capacity and rigidity.
ATTENTION!
Insufficient rigidity of the foundation leads to the superposition of vibrations between the machine and
the foundation (natural frequency of components). Insufficient rigidity of the entire lathe assembly also
rapidly causes the lathe to reach critical speeds, with unpleas- ant vibrations, leading to bad turning
results.
ė
Position the lathe on the intended foundation.
ė
Secure the lathe to the foundation or substructure of the machine using the (4) through holes.
If necessary, use anti-vibration elements (model S1) for your machine substructure.
INFORMATION
The installation site must be designed in accordance with ergonomic workplace requirements. The
installation drawings described below may differ from the real dimensions (cast parts). The
tolerances are in the range of the general tolerances according to DIN 7168 g.
