Reasonably Foreseeable Misuse; Avoiding Misuse - Optimum OPTImill MH 22V Operating Manual

If the milling machine is used in any way other than described above, or modified without the
approval of Optimum Maschinen Germany GmbH, then the milling machine is being used
improperly.
We will not be held liable for any damages resulting from any operation which is not in accord-
ance with the intended use.
We expressly point out that the guarantee will expire, if any constructive, technical or proce-
dural changes are not performed by the company Optimum Maschinen Germany GmbH. It is
also part of the intended use that you
observe the limits of the milling machine,

observe the operating instructions,

and comply with the inspection and maintenance instructions.

WARNING!
Extremely severe injuries due to non-intended use.
It is forbidden to make any modifications or alternations to the operating parameters
values of the milling machine. They could pose an accident hazard to persons and cause
damage to the milling machine.
1.4

Reasonably foreseeable misuse

Any use other than that specified under "Intended use" or any use beyond that described will be
deemed non-intended use and is not permissible.
Any other use must be discussed with the manufacturer.
Only metallic, cold and non-flammable materials may be machined with the milling machine.
In order to avoid misuse, the operating instructions must be read and understood before first
commissioning.
Operators must be duly qualified.
The MH22VD milling machine with digital position indicator is a category C2 product according
to EN 61800-3. In this case it may be necessary for the operator to take appropriate measures.
1.4.1

Avoiding misuse


Use of suitable cutting tools.

Adapting the speed setting and feed to the material and workpiece.

Clamp workpieces firmly and free of vibration.

Risk of fire and explosion due to the use of flammable materials or cooling lubricants.
Before processing inflammable materials (e.g. aluminium, magnesium) or using inflamma-
ble auxiliary materials (e.g. spirit), you need to take additional preventive measures in order
to avoid health risks.

When processing plastics, the machine operator must ensure that static electricity gener-
ated during the machining process can be discharged easily.

When processing carbons, graphite and carbon-fibre-reinforced carbons, the machine is no
longer being used as intended. This causes the warranty to be null and void. When pro-
cessing carbons, graphite and carbon-fibre-reinforced carbons and similar materials, the
machine can be damaged extremely quickly, even if the dusts generated are completely
sucked out during the work process.
ATTENTION!
The workpiece is always to be fixed by a machine vice, jaw chuck or by another
appropriate clamping tool such as for the clamping claws.
