1.9 Residual risks
Also when the machine is used as inten-
ded and all applicable safety regulations
are observed, there may occur residual
risks that are attributable to the design of
the machine for its intended purpose,
for example:
– Touching the tool blades during tool
change.
– Rupture of the tool and parts thrown from
the machine.
– Sudden violent shifting of the tool when it
is not clamped fast.
– Touching of live parts when the control
cabinet is open and the main switch is
not switched off, or the connecting cable
not unplugged.
– Adverse effect on hearing in case of pro-
longed working without ear protection.
– Emission of hazardous wood dusts in
case of prolonged operation in closed
rooms without sufficient ventilation.
1.9.1 Information in respect of the laser
– The laser is switched on and off with the
main switch that is located on the side of
the control cabinet.
– The laser opening is located in the top of
the protective cover, to the left of the sa-
fety curtain. The laser radiates obliquely
downwards (cut edge of the milling tool)
onto the workpiece.
– Do not attach any additional optical in-
struments in front of the laser.
– Do not repair defects on the laser yours-
elf.
– The built-in laser corresponds to class 2M
and is thus safe for the human eye in
case of brief exposure by eye lid closing
reflex (looking into the beam for up to
0.25s)
