Machining
– Eye protection must be worn during all operations of the machine. Hands must be kept
completely away from the cutter head. All chip guards must be in position during machine operations.
Work Loading and Unloading
– Carefully develop handling methods
of loading and unloading work pieces so that no injury can result if
hoist equipment or lift connection should fail. Periodically check lift components for damage that may
cause failure.
Machine Maintenance – Any machine adjustment, maintenance or
parts replacement absolutely requires a complete power disconnection
from the machine.
Emergency Procedure
Assuming one of the following has occurred: tool bit set completely off size, work piece or spindle base
not clamped, spindle is not properly centered, and these mistakes will become obvious the minute the cut
starts
PRESS THE EMERGENCY STOP BUTTON (on the front control panel) IMMEDIATELY!
Find out what the problem is; return the spindle to its up position without causing more damage. To
restart the machine, turn the Emergency Stop Button CW until the button pops out
Be alert to quickly stop the machine in the event of a serious disruption of the boring process either at the
top or bottom of the bores.
“ REMEMBER ” metal cutting tools have the speed and torque to severely injure any part of the human
body exposed to them.
