8�1 Transport
8 Transportation and Storage
Never move heavy loads above people. If the object should fall, there is a danger of personal injury and
damage to the load.
If you want to transport the machine, please pay special attention to its dimensions. You might need additional people for
transportation. Avoid an unilateral load of the machine frame. To prevent torsion, the machine should only be transported
with the machine table installed.
8�2 Packaging
If you do not want to reuse the packing materials of the machine and its components, please separate it according to the
disposal conditions on site and take it to a collection center for recycling or dispose of it.
8�3 Storage
If the machine or its components is not used for a longer period, please consider the following points regarding storage:
• Only store the machine and the components in closed rooms.
• Make sure, that there is protection against humidity, wetness, cold, heat and direct sun radiation.
• Store the machine and components dust-free and use a cover if necessary.
• The storage place must not be subjected to vibrations.
9�1 General Maintenance
Prior to commissioning the CNC gantry milling system, it has to be ensured that the machine is in a technically perfect
and well-maintained condition. Always ensure that the machine is set currentless if you want to perform adjustment or
maintenance works. For this purpose, disconnect the power plug. Please make sure to set system-guided tools with own
power supply currentless as well! Sharp-edged cutting tools are to be dismounted. Clamped tools equal a high risk of
injury. Remove workpieces you have clamped onto the machine table including the individual clamping elements. Only
tools of high quality are to be used.
9 Maintenance
Preventive maintenance performed by unauthorized persons can result in serious hazardous situations. We
recommend having all maintenance work performed by a STEPCRAFT service facility.
Always wear protective goggles when cleaning equipment with compressed air to prevent eye injuries.
Certain cleaning agents and solvents damage plastic parts and / or the coating. Some of these are: gasoline,
carbon tetrachloride, chlorinated cleaning solvents, ammonia and household detergents that contain
ammonia.
To continue using the tool in unmaintained condition will permanently damage your tool.
