§ 12 MAINTENANCE
Read this section carefully before attempting any maintenance on the electro-spindle. This section
contains information that is important for the safety of maintenance personnel and for the reliability
of maintenance work itself.
All applicable safety precautions must be taken whenever maintenance work is done on the
electro-spindle. In particular:
• Maintenance and/or lubrication must be performed only by qualified, expert personnel, with the
authorization of factory management, in compliance with applicable safety directives and
standards, and with the use of suitable tools and instruments.
• When performing maintenance, always wear suitable clothing such as tight fitting work overalls
and safety shoes. Never wear long or slack clothing or clothes with parts that hang loose.
• When performing maintenance on a machine, mark it clearly with panels stating “MACHINE
UNDERGOING MAINTENANCE”, and guard from unauthorized access.
During all maintenance work make sure that the electro-spindle is:
• disconnected and insulated from the electrical power supply;
• fully stopped (not still spinning).
Maintenance managers must ensure that their team is trained to ensure optimum co-ordination and
safety. All persons performing maintenance must remain fully visible to colleagues at all times so
that they can signal for assistance if necessary.
WARNING: USE ONLY SUITABLE LIFTING AND MOVING EQUIPMENT TO DISCONNECT OR
REMOVE HEAVY PARTS FROM THE MACHINE.
