PERMITTED USE - This machine has been designed and built for turning and threadcutting cold metal.
During machining, the workpiece is held by a chuck and machined with tools (not included).
UNINTENDED USE - IT is forbidden to:
• operate on non-metals, organic materials and/or food stuff s;
• operate on materials which may release toxic substances during the work process.
• use any type of lubricant during cutting.
• modify the lathe, the safety devices, guards or switches;
This machine is not suitable for use in potentially explosive environments.
RESIDUAL RISKS
Severing hazard - Risk indicated by this symbol:
Precautions to be taken
• When turning with the tool do not wear work gloves.
• Keep hands away from the work area.
• •
Never remove swarf or fragments from the machine when the chuck is rotating.
Friction or abrasion hazard - This risk is due to the presence of the rotating chuck.
Precautions to be taken
• When working with the tool do not wear work gloves.
• Keep hands away from the work area.
• •
Never remove swarf or fragments from the machine when the chuck is rotating.
Risk of fl ying debris - This risk is due to the presence of the rotating chuck.
Precautions to be taken
• Always wear the necessary personal protective equipment during machining operations: safety
goggles, face mask, hearing defenders and safety shoes.
• Keep your face away from the turning area;
• Let the turned piece fall onto the base of the machine;
• Never bring hands anywhere near the rotating chuck zone;
• To avoid breaking the tool, reduce pressure as soon as the tool comes into contact with the
workpiece;
• for electronic lathes, in the event of excessive turning pressures, the current limiter will trip.
• Lessen the turning pressure to safeguard the machine.
INFORMATION CONCERNING NOISE - The noise values indicated are emission levels and not
necessarily safe operating levels. While there is a correlation between emission levels and exposure
levels, this cannot reliably be used to determine whether or not further safety precautions are needed.
Factors which infl uence the real level of a worker's exposure include the duration of exposure, the
characteristics of the working environment, other sources of noise, for example the number of machines
or operations being carried out in the near vicinity. Furthermore, levels of safe exposure may be fi xed
diff erently from one country to another. This information does however help the machine user to better
assess the hazards and risks.
It is advisable to use suitable hearing protection such as earmuff s or ear plugs.
INFORMATION ON ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY - Electromagnetic emissions from the
machine do not exceed the limits defi ned by the relative standards for the envisaged conditions of use.
Check that the power supply system is equipped with a thermomagnetic circuit breaker to protect
all conductors from short circuit and overloads.
Vibrations during real machine use may diff er from those declared as the total vibration value
depends very much on how the machine is used.
It is therefore necessary to identify the most appropriate safety measurements to safeguard the
operator based on estimated exposure times and real conditions of use.
