Arranty - Haas TL-1 Operator's

1. WARRANTY
All new Haas Toolroom Lathes are warranted exclusively by the Haas Automa-
tion's ("Manufacturer") limited warranty against defects in material and work-
manship for a period of 1 year from the date of purchase, which is the date that
a machine is installed at the end user. See the Warranty section of the Lathe
Operator's Manual for further warranty information.
2. SAFETY
Read and Follow all Safety Warnings – Familiarize yourself with the Safety
section of the Operator's Manual. Be aware of the other people around you in
the shop; flying chips can seriously injure people who may not be a safe dis-
tance away. Always wear safety glasses. Initial cuts/setups should be cut at a
slower speed to reduce the possibility of tool or machine damage. As with any
open frame lathe, chip screens are highly recommended.
The Toolroom Lathe (with the exception of the TL-4) is equipped with a hand
held safety switch. The button must be pressed any time automatic machining
is taking place. Releasing the switch will cause the spindle and axes motion to
stop. In order to resume automatic machining, the button and Cycle Start must
be pressed (it is not necessary to hold down the Cycle Start switch).
Workholding Safety
The care and safety issues of the workholder's manufacturer must be followed
to ensure a safe working environment and to avoid damaging the machine.
Cleaning and maintenance should be done often. Inspect the equipment for
improper wear, cracks or missing pieces. Do not operate if any of these are
found.
Do not start the lathe until it is set up properly. Interference between the work-
holding equipment and the lathe will cause damage to both.
Use the correct chuck size; do not allow the chuck jaws to protrude past the
chuck body.
Use additional support if turning long parts.
Remove the chuck wrench before starting the machine.
Do not modify workholding equipment.
Never exceed the maximum speed of the chuck.
Additional safety issues are outlined in the Lathe Operator's man-
ual.
