All additional devices installed by the operator must be equipped with the stipulated safety devices. This is your responsibility being the operating company or private user! "Safety devices“ on page 13 Qualification It is indispensable that the operator is suitably qualified for safe use and secure setting and operation of the machine.
Qualified personnel Due to their professional training, knowledge and experience as well as knowledge of relevant regulations, qualified personnel are able to perform the assigned tasks and to independently recognise and avoid any possible dangers. Instructed person Instructed persons were instructed by the operating company regarding the assigned tasks and any possible risks of improper behaviour.
1.6.7 Additional requirements regarding qualification The following additional requirements apply for work on electrical components or equipment: They must only be performed by a qualified electrician or person working under the instruc- tions and supervision of a qualified electrician. Before starting work on electrical parts or operating agents, the following actions must be taken in the order given: ...
1.9.1 Emergency stop button CAUTION! Only press the emergency stop button (1) in a genuine emergency. Do not use the emergency stop button to stop the machine during normal operation. CAUTION! The spindle continues to rotate for a while, depending on the moment of inertia of the spindle and the tool in use.
1.9.3 Main switch WARNING! Dangerous voltage even if the main switch is switched off. The areas marked by the pictogram might contain live parts, even if the main switch is switched off. Switch off the milling machine with the main switch (3) and lock it so it cannot be acti- vated unauthorised...
1.11 Personal protective equipment For certain work, personal protective equipment is required. Protect your face and your eyes: Wear a safety helmet with facial protection when performing work where your face and eyes are exposed to hazards. Wear protective gloves when handling pieces with sharp edges. Wear safety shoes when you assemble, disassemble or transport heavy components.
1.13 Using lifting equipment WARNING! The use of unstable lifting and load suspension equipment that might break under load can cause severe injuries or even death. Check to ensure that the lifting and load-suspension equipment are of sufficient load- bearing capability and are in perfect condition. Observe the accident prevention regulations issued by your Employers Liability Insurance Association or other supervisory authorities applicable to your company.

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.
Delivery INFORMATION The machine is 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 machine. Check the status of the machine immediately upon receipt and claim possible damages at the last carrier also if the packing is not being damaged.
Lifting the machine WARNING! Danger of crushing and overturning. Proceed carefully when lifting, installing and assembling the machine. Fix the load lifting gear around the drilling-milling head. Use a lifting strap with a width of 30 mm to do this. ...
ATTENTION! Inadequate rigidity of the foundation will cause interaction of vibrations between the milling machine and the foundation (resonant frequency of the components). If the rigidity of the overall system is insufficient, critical speeds with annoying vibrations will be reached very quickly and lead to bad milling results. ...
Only use the tool holders (e.g. drill chuck) which were delivered with the machine or which are offered as optional equipment by OPTIMUM. Only use tool holders in the intended admissible speed range. Tool holders may only be modified in compliance with the recommendation of OPTIMUM or the clamping device manufacturer. Electrical connection...
3.10 Optional machine base MSM1 - Item no. 3353000 Fixing points Mounting surface machine on the ground 3.11 Optional digital display DRO5 The optionally available digital display DRO5 can be attached to the side of the control panel with screws. The holes are already drilled there from 2021 onwards. The magnetic holder of the DRO5 included in the scope of delivery is not strong enough to fix the display securely to the control panel.
Safety The milling machine must only be operated under the following conditions: The milling machine is in proper working order. The milling machine is used as intended. The operating instructions are followed. All safety devices are installed and activated. ...
4.7.2 Gear stage Changing the gear stage may only be at a standstill. Direction of spindle rotation A change in the direction of rotation at the MH22V is only possible if the spindle rotates even in its standard direction of rotation. The standard direction of rotation is clockwise. Feed with the hand cranks on the milling table.
Screw the draw bar in the tool. Tighten the tool with the draw bar and Draw bar hold the spindle on the counter bear- ing by means of a wrench. Steady/ Counter-bearing Img.4-2: Drill-mill head 4.10.2 Removing Hold the spindle on counter bearing with a wrench and loosen the draw bar.
4.11 Clamping the workpieces CAUTION! Injuries can be caused by parts flying off. The workpiece must always be secured to the milling table in a machine vice, chuck or with another suitable clamping tool, such as a workholding device (clamping claws). Parallel Underlying plates Workholding device 3352032...
4.12 Swivelling the milling head The milling head can be swivelled to the right and to the left. Loosen the fastening screw on the milling head. Turn the drill-mill head to the desired position. Retighten the fastening screw. INFORMATION The milling head should be aligned after resetting to the initial position with a dial indicator so that holes can be produced with the spindle sleeve at a right angle.

Interval Where? What? How? An larger amount of backlash in the milling head spindle can be reduced by adjusting the spindle nut. The spindle nut is reset by reducing the thread flanks of the spindle nut with take- up screws. After the reset, it is necessary to check if there is still smooth movement over the entire path, otherwise wear is considerably increased due to friction between the spindle nut and the spindle.
