4.25.1 Safety instructions
Intended use
This standard product is suitable for clamping workpieces on lathe machines and other rotating
tooling machines. Unintended and improper use of the manual chuck may cause danger to life
and limb of the operator. The specified maximum technical data must not be exceeded while
the manual chuck is in operation! The manual chuck should only be used on the basis of its
technical data. This also comprises the observance of the conditions of initial operation,
assembly, operation as well as conditions of environment and maintenance provided by the
manufacturer.
For each individual clamping task, the permitted rotational speed and the necessary clamping
force must be determined according to the respective standards that apply and/or the most up-
to-date scientific and technological data (e.g. VDI 3106).
Reasonably foreseeable misuses
Any other use other than that specified under "Intended use" or any use beyond the described
use shall be deemed as non-intended use and is not permissible.
Any other use has to be discussed with the manufacturer.
In order to avoid misuse, it is necessary to read and understand the operating instructions
before the first commissioning.
The operators must be qualified.
Avoiding misuse
Improper and unintended use of the manual chuck and disregard of the current safety norms
and safety regulations can threaten life and limb of the operator. Irrespective of whether our
chucks are used under rotation or stationary, it is mandatory to wear protective equipment in
accordance with the EC machine guideline, so that loose parts, discharged in case of the chuck
or a component malfunctioning, are absorbed by the protective equipment. The machine manu-
facturer must ensure that there is a sufficient wall thickness of its housing / protection equip-
ment (considering the currently valid directives and standards), because this may cause a
threat to the life and limb of the operator in the case of a fracture in the chuck jaws, or when the
workpiece gets lost.
CAUTION!
Please observe all appropriate safety measures during the transportation and handling
of any chucks of considerable weight.
DANGER!
Regularly check the clamping force by inserting a power meter in the lathe chuck.
