  • Page 3: Read Before Operating

    Manual_Archive_Safety_Pages Rev A Haas Technical Publications June 6, 2013 EFORE PERATING ACHINE ♦ Only authorized personnel should work on this machine. Untrained personnel present a hazard to themselves and the machine, and improper operation will void the warranty. ♦ Use appropriate eye and ear protection while operating the machine. ANSI approved impact safety goggles and OSHA approved ear protection are recommended to reduce the risks of sight damage and hearing loss. ♦ Do not operate the machine unless the doors are closed and the door interlocks are functioning properly. Rotating cut- ting tools can cause severe injury. When a program is running, the mill table and spindle head can move rapidly at any time in any direction. ♦ The Emergency Stop button is the large, circular red switch located on the Control Panel. Pressing the Emergency Stop button will instantly stop all motion of the machine, the servo motors, the tool changer, and the coolant pump. Use the Emergency Stop button only in emergencies to avoid crashing the machine. ♦ The electrical panel should be closed and the key and latches on the control cabinet should be secured at all times except during installation and service. At those times, only qualified electricians should have access to the panel. When the main circuit breaker is on, there is high voltage throughout the electrical panel (including the circuit boards and logic circuits) and some components operate at high temperatures. Therefore, extreme caution is required. Once the ma- chine is installed, the control cabinet must be locked and the key available only to qualified service personnel. ♦ Consult your local safety codes and regulations before operating the machine. Contact you dealer anytime safety is- sues need to be addressed. ♦ DO NOT modify or alter this equipment in any way. If modifications are necessary, all such requests must be handled by Haas Automation, Inc. Any modification or alteration of any Haas Milling or Turning Center could lead to personal injury and/or mechanical damage and will void your warranty. ♦ It is the shop owner’s responsibility to make sure that everyone who is involved in installing and operating the machine is thoroughly acquainted with the installation, operation, and safety instructions provided with the machine BEFORE they perform any actual work. The ultimate responsibility for safety rests with the shop owner and the individuals who...

  • Page 4: Modifications To The Machine

    Manual_Archive_Safety_Pages Rev A Haas Technical Publications June 6, 2013 ♦ Follow these guidelines while performing jobs on the machine: Normal operation - Keep the door closed and guards in place, while machine is operating. Part loading and unloading – An operator opens the door or guard, completes task, closes door or guard before press- ing cycle start (starting automatic motion). Tool loading or unloading – A machinist enters the machining area to load or unload tools. Exit the area completely before automatic movement is commanded (for example, next tool, ATC/Turret FWD/REV). Machining job set-up – Press emergency stop before adding or removing machine fixtures. Maintenance / Machine Cleaner– Press emergency stop or power off the machine before entering enclosure. Do not enter the machining area anytime the machine is in motion; severe injury or death may result. Unattended Operation Fully enclosed Haas CNC machines are designed to operate unattended; however, your machining process may not be safe to operate unmonitored. As it is the shop owner’s responsibility to set up the machines safely and use best practice machining techniques, it is also their responsibility to manage the progress of these methods. The machining process must be monitored to pre- vent damage if a hazardous condition occurs. For example, if there is the risk of fire due to the material machined, then an appropriate fire suppression system must be installed to reduce the risk of harm to personnel, equipment and the building. A suitable specialist must be contacted to install monitoring tools before machines are allowed to run unattended. It is especially important to select monitoring equipment that can immediately perform an appropriate action without human intervention to prevent an accident, should a problem be detected. MODIFICATIONS TO THE MACHINE DO NOT modify or alter this equipment in any way. If modifications are necessary, all such requests must be handled by Haas Automation, Inc. Any modification or alteration of any Haas machining center could lead to personal injury and/or mechanical damage and will void your warranty.

    Manual_Archive_Safety_Pages Rev A Haas Technical Publications June 6, 2013 SAFETY DECALS To help ensure that CNC tool dangers are quickly communicated and understood, hazard symbol decals are placed on Haas Machines in locations where hazards exist. If decals become damaged or worn, or if additional decals are needed to emphasize a particular safety point, contact your dealer or the Haas factory. Never alter or remove any safety decal or symbol. Each hazard is defined and explained on the general safety decal, located at the front of the machine. Particular loca- tions of hazards are marked with warning symbols. Review and understand the four parts of each safety warning, explained below, and familiarize yourself with the symbols on the following pages. NEVER OPERATE THIS MACHINE WITH THE DOORS OPEN...
