• Operating the machine in ambient conditions other than the approved ambient
conditions
Machining of the following materials is not permitted:
• Explosives
• Materials releasing hazardous substances during the machining process (e.g.,
toxic or radioactive substances)
• Materials that produce explosive dust during machining
• Combustible materials
This does not apply to titanium alloys if appropriate fire-safety measures are met
when dealing with the collection of chips.
• Materials without sufficient inherent stability
2.6 Modifications to the machine
Modifications to the machine may result in a safety risk. This applies particularly to
all safety equipment, electrical circuits, and the machine control system software
and parameters.
Significant modifications to the machine may lead to non-conformance with the
applicable directives for product safety.
Therefore, the operator/owner must not make any modifications or additions to the
hardware or software of the machine without the written approval of INDEX-Werke
GmbH & Co. KG.
Modifications approved by the manufacturer must be documented in a retraceable
manner.
