FOR SAFE OPERATION -13-
SO-NL-B17E/O
1.
When machining bar stock on a machine equipped with a bar feeder or spindle
through-hole, use straight workpieces only. When machining bar stock with a
diameter smaller than that of the spindle (or draw bar), always use guide bushes
in order to prevent vibration. If you use a bent workpiece or fail to use guide
bushes, the machine will vibrate and the workpiece will shake; this could cause
damage to the machine. It will also seriously affect machining accuracy.
2.
Do not touch the lamp that illuminates the interior of the machine since, if a
halogen lamp or incandescent lamp is used, it will be very hot and will burn you.
Also wait some time before touching the lamp after turning the power OFF.
3.
Never operate the machine without the shield cover of the chuck opening/closing
footswitch and the lock device in place.
If you step on the footswitch by mistake, or drop something on it, the chuck will be
unclamped and the workpiece that it was gripping will fall out, and this could
cause damage to the machine.
4.
When using the service outlet (optional) on the operation panel for connecting an
external device, the permissible current indicated on the rating plate must not be
exceeded. If a device whose capacity exceeds the permissible current is used,
the breaker in the electrical cabinet could be tripped, causing damage to the
machine or machining defects.
5.
In order to open the electrical cabinet door, you must place the main switch in the
OPEN RESET
position. If the main switch is at a position other than
OPEN
RESET
, it will not be possible to open the door. Attempting to force the door open
in this situation could cause damage to the electrical cabinet door or the main
switch.
6.
When clamping or unclamping the chuck, pay sufficient care so that hand or
fingers will not be caught by the chuck or the chuck jaws. If caught by the chuck
or chuck jaws, hand or fingers will be injured.
