SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

s–4
WARNING
7.
When you run the machine using a machining program created using a conversational function
or a machining program generated by converting another machining program to NC program
format, be sure to use the correct tool geometry compensation data measured on the relevant
measurement guidance screen provided by the conversational function.
If the machine is used with incorrect data, the tool may bump against the machine and/or
workpiece, possibly causing damage to the tool and/or machine, and even injuries.
The method to measure the tool compensation amount may be provided by the machine tool
builder. If this is the case, before starting measurement, read carefully and understand
sufficiently the applicable user’s guide from the machine tool builder.
8.
Before using a chuck barrier or chuck/tailstock barrier, perform a manual operation (such as jog
feed or manual pulse generator feed) to make sure that the barrier area data is set correctly, that
the barrier function occurs at the correct position, and that the tool will not bump against the
chuck or tailstock.
If the tool bumps against the chuck and/or tailstock, the tool and/or machine may be damaged,
and even injuries may occur.
9.
When pressing the power ON button, do not touch any key on the keyboard before a display
appears on the screen. Some keys on the keyboard are allocated to maintenance or other special
operations. Pressing any of these keys may cause the machine to behave unexpectedly.
