Safety Instructions
NOTICE
Risk of material damage!
•
Manual or automatic positioning of the touch probe must be protected, in a way that the machine axis stops
feeding if the probe is triggered outside the measuring process!
NOTICE
Risk of material damage!
•
Feedhold or spindle-stop resulting from a trigger or ready signal from a touch probe should only happen if the
probe is actually in the spindle. This safety logic prevents the spindle or feed being stopped during normal
milling operations if a signal from a measuring probe is triggered for one of the following reasons:
•
Battery replacement and subsequent functional check of the touch probe by manually switching it on.
•
Another machine with a radio-wave touch probe installed is started up and this touch probe transmits on
the same channel as a touch probe previously installed.
NOTICE
Risk of material damage caused by third-party parts!
•
Only use the original spare parts listed in these operating instructions to perform maintenance and repairs.
INFORMATION
The information given in this manual can be changed by the manufacturer at any time. Thus the user is
responsible to regularly inquire about updated information.
1.1.3
Validity
These operating instructions are valid for the hardware available at the date of creation of these operating
instructions. The manufacturer reserves the right to make technical modifications.
