Handling the BIAX handpiece
The assembly instructions are
intended
for
trained
expert
personnel!
Risk of entanglement!
While performing the work wear
always
well-fitting
clothes!
Remove all jewellery before
starting work. Always wear a
hair net if you have long hair!
Risk of injury!
The tool must be held away from
the body when switched on!
Do not reach into a tool when it
is in operation!
Handle tools carefully!
Risk of explosion!
While grinding, dust can be
created which could form a
potentially
explosive
atmosphere.
Observe
the
regulations applicable in your
country
of
use
concerning
materials being processed.
The handpiece may only be operated when in a
perfect, fully-functioning condition.
Always maintain the prescribed speeds and
minimum clamping length of 10 mm.
Choose tool depending on the handpiece and
application.
When using
tools,
ensure
the
permissible
circumferential speed is not exceeded to rule out
any risks of personal injury and property damage.
The workpiece may only be processed by the tool,
never with other parts of the rotating spindle.
Damaged or incorrectly fixed tools can cause
extreme vibration.
If a tool falls, it must be checked for any damage.
Check the tool is clamped securely in the collet of
the handpiece because the tool could become
loose and fly out of the collet!
Check correct seating of the shaft on the handpiece
because the power train could be damaged if they
are installed incorrectly!
