6.4 Operation (production mode)

Operation of the machine requires a detailed analysis and assessment of the
planned production process in terms of the risks and hazards that may be caused by
it, such as the risks arising from the cooling lubricant or the material.
• If non-combustible cooling lubricants are used in combination with non-combus-
tible working materials, supervision of the machine is not required.
• The machine must be operated under supervision when using combustible
cooling lubricants. A machine is adequately supervised if a person can perceive
the audible and visual signals of the fire extinguishing system and can react
accordingly.
The machining sequence must be checked before starting the production (using a
test run).
The cooling lubricant spray gun may only be used for cleaning workpieces and
clamping devices. Always use appropriate protective equipment, especially goggles,
during use. Use is only allowed with the work area door open.
Sufficient cooling of the entire machining process must be ensured.
Work in the work area must be carried out with the work area light switched on.
The work area light must be maintained in clean condition to ensure safe working.
When the tailstock quill is actuated, there is an increased safety hazard from the
travel of the quill tip. The use of an insertion aid is recommended for manual tooling
and when using a tailstock.
Do not reach between the pallets or workpieces during operation when using a
workpiece feeder and discharge unit.
Chips may only be removed with suitable auxiliary equipment.
After every collision, the machine must be checked according to the instructions in
the user documentation. When in doubt, the manufacturer should be consulted.
For machines with tool and workpiece magazines that can be entered, the machine
must be switched off and locked out before troubleshooting any problems with the
tool or workpiece logistics.
