4.3
Safe Operation of the Machine
This machine includes many safety features, but the following guidelines must also be observed:
Never operate the machine with any doors open or safety guards removed, disabled or
bypassed.
Remove or properly secure all loose tools and work pieces before operating the machine.
Keep hands and all other body parts outside of the machine when moving any axis or
spindle.
Use reduced feed rates and extreme caution if a manual axis jog is necessary.
Never aim or adjust slurry nozzles while spindles are moving.
Clean all coolant leaks or spills immediately following precautions outlined in the relevant
MSDS (See Appendix).
Do not tamper with, override, remove, or otherwise hinder the functionality of safety
equipment installed on the machine.
Personal injury or equipment damage can be avoided when operating the machine as
designed.
Always turn the chiller, slurry, and coolant systems off before service or maintenance, if
applicable.
4.4
In An Emergency
The emergency stop button is located on the operator control panel. When emergency stop is pressed
all machine motion and spindle motion is shut down. The controller, however, remains active and the
software functions may be used. Once the reason for the emergency stop has been determined and
corrected, normal operations may resume by turning the
EMERGENCY STOP
button clockwise until it
releases from its locked position. The
RESET
button must then be pressed to clear the error bar (found
in the top right corner of the display).
