•
Persons operating, maintaining or servicing the cutting head should always
read and understand the operating manual in particular the safety inst-
ructions. Persons under the influence of alcohol and /or drugs may cause
accidents!
•
Take into account the weight of the thread cutting head upon installation. If
necessary lift it with a lifting gear.
•
Please take note that the cutting sites between tool and machine are kept
clean. Should they be fouled the accuracy of the workpiece is affected.
•
When installing the tools switch off the machine at the line switch. When
changing the chaser holders and chasers take note that the tool shaft isn’t
starting unexpectedly.
•
Remove all tools and testing equipment from the workspace of the machine
before activating it. Risk of injury arises through tools and testing equipment
which are flung about!
•
Close guard door or protection case before machining. Flying chipping and
damaged tools or workpieces can cause damage to persons or mechanical
breakdown.
•
Make sure that the thread cutting head isn’t loosening when machining.

injury!
•
Be very careful when dealing with the chasers. The edges of the chasers are
very sharp. Wear safety gloves if necessary!
