ADJUSTABLE MULTISPINDLE HEADS
1 General notes
1-7 Transport
During transport, keep in mind that you are handling a precision tool requiring adequate
caution. When carrying out the operation, observe the safety Standards in force with regard
to safety at work.
DANGER Do not disassemble, transport or re-assemble the head with tools fitted in
the spindles, as the sharp cutting parts could cause injuries.
For models with a weight above 10 kg, use a suitable hoisting mean for the operation.
1-8 Storage
In case you don’t use the head for a long time, it is a good rule to clean the head and to
protect it against salty, damp or chemically aggressive environments.
IMPORTANT
For inactivity periods of more than 6 months, before start-up, we recommend
to replace the lubricant inside the head (see chap. 10).
1-9 Disposal
The MPA heads are manufactured using the following substance:
• aluminium;
• steel;
• cast iron;
• lubricants.
IMPORTANT The head must be disposed of per type of substance, in strict compliance with
the legal regulations with regard to recycling and management of waste in
force in the country where the head is used.
In particular, exhaust lubricants must not be thrown outdoors but must
be handed over to specialised and authorised waste collection centres.
