Reasonably foreseeable misuses
Any other use other than that specified under "Intended use" or any use beyond the described
use shall be deemed as non-intended use and is not permissible.
Any other use has to be discussed with the manufacturer.
The lathe must not be used to process metal, cold and non-inflammable materials.
In order to avoid misuse, it is necessary to read and understand the operating instructions
before the first commissioning.
The lathe operator must be qualified.

1.4.1
Avoiding misuse
Use of suitable cutting tools.
Adapting the speed adjustment and feed to the material and workpiece.
Insert the workpiece tightly, without vibration and without one-sided imbalances.
The machine is not designed for the use of hand tools (e.g. emery cloth or files). It is
forbidden to use any hand tools on this machine.
The machine is not designed to allow long parts to protrude beyond the spindle hole. If
longer parts have to protrude beyond the spindle hole, an additional operator-side,
permanent device must be mounted, which completely covers the protruding part and
provides complete protection against spinning parts.
Long workpieces must be propped up. Use the steady rest or follow rest in conjunction with
the tailstock spindle to support longer parts and prevent the workpiece from flapping around
and flying away.
Risk of fire and explosion due to the use of flammable materials or cooling lubricants.
Before processing inflammable materials (e.g. aluminium, magnesium) or using
inflammable auxiliary materials (e.g. spirit), it is necessary to take additional preventive
measures in order to avoid health risks.
When processing carbons, graphite and carbon-fibre-reinforced carbons, the machine is no
longer being used as intended. When processing carbons, graphite and carbon-fibre-
reinforced carbons and similar materials, the machine can be damaged quickly, even if the
dusts generated are completely sucked out during the work process.
The processing of plastics with the lathe leads to static charge. The static charge of
machine parts from processing plastics cannot be safely conducted away from the lathe.
When using lathe dogs as carriers for rotating workpieces between the lathe centres, the
standard lathe chuck shield must be replaced with a circular lathe chuck shield.
1.5
Potential dangers that can be caused by the lathe
The lathe has been tested for operational safety. The construction and type are state of the art.
Nevertheless, there is a residual risk as the lathe operates with
high revolutions,
with rotating parts,
electrical voltage and currents,
We have used design and safety engineering to minimize the health risk to personnel resulting
from these hazards.
If the lathe is used and maintained by personnel who are not duly qualified, there may be a risk
resulting from incorrect or unsuitable maintenance of the lathe.
INFORMATION
Everyone involved in the assembly, commissioning, operation and maintenance must
be duly qualified,
