Operator Safety
The following are safety instructions that apply to the operation of the machine.
These instructions should be supplemented by the safety instructions of your
company/organization.
Every effort must be made to keep your machine safe. A daily safety inspection
should be made in addition to the normal maintenance inspection. Machine
operators should be aware of safe operating procedures and apply these proce-
dures at all times during operation.
Particular emphasis should be placed on
ensuring that all guards are on the machine, in good condition and fastened
securely. Never operate the machine when its guards are removed.
The MH3D has been designed to minimize possible hazards to the operator and
sources of damage to the machine. While it is impossible to anticipate every
situation, strict adherence to the safety rules in this manual will reduce the
possibility of injury to personnel and damage to the machine.
• Develop personal safety awareness. Observe all safety regulations and
be alert for hazardous conditions. Discuss these conditions with your
supervisor. Use the personal protective equipment specified by your
employer. TESA recommends the use of safety glasses with side
shields for all personnel in the machining area.
• Never remove Warning and/or Instruction plates from the machine.
• Never wire, fasten, or override any interlock, overload, disconnect, or
other safety device to void its assigned function. These devices are
provided to protect the machine operator and the machine.
• Do not load, unload, operate, or adjust this machine without proper
instructions.
• If you are uncertain about the correct way to do a job, ask for instruc-
tions before proceeding.
• Always lock the machine axes when leaving the machine unattended.
