An operating vacuum of at least -600 mbar, which is monitored by vacuum switch [1Z2], item [11], must
be reached to machine workpieces on the overall machine.
The workpiece being machined on the machine table or in the system may shift or even be released in
the following circumstances:
Power failure,
Critical fill level exceeded,
Pump failure and
Line break.

►
Restart the workpiece clamping process from the very beginning after a
failure or disruption of the vacuum supply system.
►
Restore the vacuum supply and
►
Check the system for existing software errors (machine control

The continuous operation of the VOC will heat the vacuum pump, item [2], and the surfaces can reach
temperatures of over 70°C. Avoid contact with these surfaces.
Allow the vacuum pump to cool before performing maintenance work.
