Symbol Alarm expression Definition / consequence...
We expressly point out that the guarantee or CE conformity will expire, if any constructive, tech- nicalor procedural changes are not performed by the company Optimum Maschinen Germany GmbH. It is also part of the intended use that you the limits of performance of the milling machine are observed, ...
Reasonably foreseeable misuse Any other use other than that specified under "Intended use" or any use beyond the described use shall be deemed as non-intended use and is not permissible. Any other use has to be discussed with the manufacturer. It is only permissible to process metal, cold and non-inflammable materials with the milling machine.
Possible dangers caused by the milling machine The milling machine has been tested for operational safety. The construction and type are state of the art. Nevertheless, there is a residual risk, as the milling machine operates with rotating parts, electrical voltage and currents, ...
Operator The operator has been instructed by the operating company regarding the assigned tasks and possible risks in case of improper behaviour. Any tasks which need to be performed beyond the operation in standard mode must only be performed by the operator, if so indicated in these instructions and if the operator has been expressively commissioned by the operating com- pany.
Obligations of the user have obtained a training regarding the handling of the milling machine, Obligations of the operator keep an operator‘s log, before taking the machine in operation - have read and understood the operating manual, - be familiar with all safety devices and instructions.
1.9.1 Lockable main switch In the "0" position, the lockable main switch can be secured against accidental or non-author- ised switching on by means of a padlock. The power supply is cut off when the master switch is in the off position. Except for the areas marked by the pictogram in the margin.

Delivery, interdepartmental transport, assembly and commissioning Notes on transport, installation, commissioning Improper transport, installation and commissioning is liable to accidents and can cause damage or malfunctions to the machine for which we do not assume any liability or guarantee. Transport the scope of delivery secured against shifting or tilting with a sufficiently dimen- sioned industrial truck or a crane to the installation site.
Unpacking the machine INFORMATION The milling machine is delivered pre-assembled. It is delivered in a transport box. After the unpacking and the transportation to the installation site it is necessary to mount and assemble the individual components of the milling machine. Install the machine close to its final position before unpacking.
Load suspension point WARNING! Before lifting the milling machine, check that all clamping screws of the milling table and the spindle head are tightened. The milling machine is lifted with a forklift on the machine base. The clamping screws of the milling table and the spindle head bearing must be tightened.

Set-up and assembly 3.6.1 Installation plan 220 ~ 550 1028 1280 Center of gravity 3.6.2 Requirements regarding the installation site Keep a work area of at least one metre around the machine free for operation and mainte- nance. In order to achieve sufficient safety against falls by slipping, the accessible area in the mechani- cal machining zone of the machine must be equipped with a slip resistance.
The device must only be installed and operated in a dry and well-ventilated place. Avoid places close to machines which cause chips or dust. The installation site must be vibration-free, i.e. located away from presses, planing machines, etc. The foundation must be suitable for the milling machine.

4.12 Swivelling the milling head ATTENTION! If the milling head is slewn too far oil might escape from the gear. Therefore, we recom- mend to slew the milling head only as far as no oil escapes while the vertical spindle is running.
Mount the thrust bearing. INFORMATION If the spindle head carrier is not exactly plugged in to "Zero" it is almost not possible to fix the thrust bearing. Therefore if required release the clamping screws by slightly turning the spindle head carrier before plug-in the thrust bearing. Retighten the clamping screws after plugging them in.
