• The chamfering wheel
Wear indicators
Four indicators in the information bar inform you of the level of wear of certain tools:
• Wear of the 1.0 mm or 0.8 mm drill bit
• Mill bit wear
• Chamfering wheel wear
• Wear of the step bevel wheel
• Dressing of the polishing wheel: press above to directly access the dressing menu
The colour of the indicator informs you of the level of wear of the tool:
• Green for a new tool
• Blinking red for a worn-out tool that needs to be changed: press on it to directly access the tool
change menu.
The indicator enables you to know the level of wear of the spindles (change by a technician only):
press to directly access the spindle preventive maintenance.
• Always use tools recommended by Essilor.
• Never use the edger if one of the tools is missing from the module. Never remove a used or
broken tool if you cannot replace it.
• All tools coming into contact with the module must be clean and dry in order to prevent water
from seeping into the mechanisms.
• The use of broken tools may cause lens breakage or errors with respect to lens shape or drill-
hole diameter: change the tools as soon as they are worn (check the indicators and statistics of
your edger).
• Incorrect positioning of the tools may cause breakage or errors with respect to lens shape or
drill-hole diameter: fully insert the tools and tighten the screws as much as possible.
The lifespan of the tools mentioned below do not account for possible incidents that can occur within
the trough (shocks, collision with part of a milled lens, etc.)
a. Changing or cleaning the drill bit
The wear indicator informs you of the need to change the 0.8 mm drill bit after 250 holes and the 1.0 mm bit
after 10,000 holes.
The chuck must always contain a tool to avoid any risk of oxidation.
