8 Maintenance and do-it-
yourself
Some day-to-day basic maintenance and preventive
maintenance is essential to keep the machine me-
chanics and electric components in good condition for
proper machining results.
It is your responsibility to make sure that preventive
maintenance, as well as basic maintenance, is
performed.
You are the only one who can ensure that your
machine receives the proper maintenance care. You
are a vital link in the maintenance chain.
Preventive maintenance
Preventive maintenance for this machine has to be
scheduled yearly or after 2,000 operating hours at the
latest.
To schedule preventive maintenance, contact your
service partner.
Where to get service?
Your service partner is your main contact for all service
related questions. They will provide you with spare
parts, maintenance tips and they will perform
preventive maintenance for you on request.
When your machine is delivered or installed, ask
the service technician for contact details for the ser-
vice partner. We also recommend scheduling the
first preventive maintenance appointment at this
point to ensure your machine gets proper main-
tenance.
