associated software programs.
For detailed information on operating the software refer to the corresponding user
manual.
6.1 Safety
Danger to life by electrical shock!
Touching energized parts causes a direct danger to life by electrical shock. Damage
to the insulation or damaged individual parts can be dangerous to life.
All work on energized components of the system must be performed by a
qualified electrician.
If the insulation is damaged, switch off the power supply immediately and initiate
the repair.
De-energize all energized components of the system or equipment, before
working with them. Ensure that the system or equipment is de-energized for the
whole time of the task.
Never bridge or deactivate fuses.
Always keep moisture away from energized parts because it can cause a short
circuit.
Health hazard by faulty extraction!
When processing materials, gases or dusts hazardous to health can be produced.
Ensure that the extraction system is switched on and is working properly.
Observe the maintenance intervals of the extraction system.
Check the connection to the system regularly.
Risk of injury by moving components!
Moving components can cause serious injuries e.g. crushing injuries or cuts.
Never grasp moving components when the system is operating.
Observe the follow-up time of the spindle. Before doing any work in the
processing area or on the processing head, ensure that no component is still
moving.
