Use and maintenance manual TIGER 370 CNC--MR
When using the pneumatic vice (version MA) check that the jaws actually
move right up to and effectively block the piece, as the maximum travel
in only 6 mm, and check that the clamping pressure is correct.
When working on the bandsaw, only wear gloves when handling materials
and tool change or adjustment operations. Only carry out one operation
at a time and do not hold more than one item or operate more than one
device simultaneously. Keep hands as clean as possible.
Warning: if the blade jams in the cut, press the emergency stop pushbut-
ton immediately. If this does not free the blade, slowly release the vice,
remove the piece and check that the blade or its teeth for damage, if
need be replace the blade.
Before carrying out any repair works on the machine, consult the MEP
Technical Service; this can also be done through an agency in the country
in which the machine is being used.
