Revo 18|36 Lathe \ Safety
Locking the Lathe
It is strongly recommended that the lathe is never be left unattended in the unlocked condition.
To lock the machine it is recommended that a cover (not supplied) is made to lock the control panel. We
have supplied two concepts for locking the panel (see below). The cover can be made from wood or
plastic.
First, push down the emergency stop. Then lock the cover together by putting padlocks [not included] on the
two handles on the control panel. To safeguard your machine from unauthorized operation and accidental
starting by young children, the use of padlocks is strongly recommended.
Proposition 65 Warning of Harmful Exposure
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other construction activities contains
chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these
chemicals are:
·
Lead from lead-based paint.
·
Crystalline silica from bricks, cement, and other masonry products.
·
Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.
Your risk of exposure varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to
these chemicals, work in a well-ventilated area and work with approved safety equipment, such as face or
dust masks that are specifically designed to filter out microscopic particles.
Notes Concerning Noise Emission
Given that there exists a relationship between noise level and exposure times, it is not possible to precisely
determine the need for supplementary precautions. The factors affecting the true level of exposure to
operators are clearly the amount of time exposed and the characteristics of the working environment, such
as other sources of dust and noise, etc.,
for example, adjacent machines - in other words, the level of ambient noise. It is possible that exposure
level limits will vary from country to country.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
Refer to them often and use them to instruct others.
