Guideline

Comment

Operator knowledge

and authorization

Review the User’s

Guide.

Read this guide carefully before you use the milling center and

keep it readily accessible for quick reference. Know the intended

applications and limitations of the milling center as well as its

hazards.

Keep untrained visitors

away from the

equipment.

Children and visitors unfamiliar with the hazards of rotating

machinery should always be kept away from the work area.

Behavior

Do not overreach.

Keep your footing and balance at all times so you won’t fall

against or clutch at the moving machine.

Do not operate the

machine under the

influence of alcohol or

drugs.

Alcohol or drugs may impair your judgment and reaction time,

which could contribute to an on-the-job accident.

Avoid distractions

while running the

machine.

Use simple common sense and pay attention while operating

any piece of machinery.

1 Safety Guidelines

1.1 Detailed Safety Guidelines

Work Area

Keep the work area

clean.

Cluttered work areas and bench tops invite accidents.

Avoid a dangerous

environment.

Don’t use the milling center in damp or wet locations. Never

operate electrical equipment in the presence of volatile and

flammable petroleum-based solvents and lubricants.

Keep coolant away

from electrical

components.

Do not allow coolant to splash into or near the computer.

Clothing and Hair

Avoid loose hair and

clothing.

Don't wear loose clothing or jewelry that can get caught in

moving parts. Wear a hat or hair net, or tie your hair back to

keep it away from moving parts.

Safety Equipment

Wear safety glasses.

During operation any power tool can throw foreign objects and

harmful chemicals into your eyes. Always put on safety glasses

or eye shields before starting up the milling center. Safety

glasses or shields should provide full protection at the sides, as

well as the front of the eyes.

Ground all tools.

The milling center has an AC power cord terminated by a three-

prong plug. The power cord should be plugged into a three-

hole, grounded receptacle. If a grounding adapter is used to

accommodate a two-prong receptacle, the adapter wire must

be attached to a known ground. Never remove the third prong

from the plug on the AC power cord.

Keep the safety door

closed while machine

is in motion.

The safety door should remain in place whenever the spindle

motor is on or the cross slide is moving.

Remove adjusting keys

and wrenches.

Make it a habit to check that keys and adjusting wrenches are

removed from the milling center before using the machine.

Emergency Stop

Stopping the machine.

Before you run the ProMill 8000 for the first time, you should

know how to stop the machine should an emergency situation

arise.

To initiate an emergency stop on the milling center, either:

Press the Emergency Stop button, or

Turn the machine off at the power switch.

In non-emergency situations, the machine can be stopped in the

following ways:

Simultaneously press the Control and Space Bar keys

on the computer keyboard

Activate one of the limit switches

Activate the safety door interlock switch.

When to use the

Emergency Stop.

You should use the Emergency Stop button to disconnect power

to the milling center when faced with a problem such as a tool

breaking or a collision occurring, and while performing routing

operations, such as when changing tools or mounting or

removing a workpiece.

1 Safety Guidelines

1.1 Detailed Safety Guidelines

Using the machine-

mounted emergency

stop button.

There is an Emergency Stop button located on the front panel of

the milling center; it has an oversized red cap.

To engage: Press the button in.

To release: Turn the button clockwise, it will pop out on its own.

Using the software

stop button.

The execution of the part program can be interrupted by

pressing the Control and Spacebar buttons on the computer

keyboard. Unlike using the Emergency Stop button, this method

of stopping the milling center does not cause the software to

lose track of the tool position.

Operation Rules

General

Proper setup of the milling center is essential for safe milling.

These procedures must be followed each time a new tool is

mounted. General setup requirements for the milling center

include checking components for cleanliness and lubrication,

mounting the cutting tool, mounting the workpiece, and setting

the spindle rotation speed.

Avoid accidental

starting.

Make sure the power switch is off before plugging in the milling

center power cord.

Check milling machine

components.

Always examine the machine to be sure that the work area is

free of shavings and particles from previous operations. Remove

such debris from the milling machine to avoid possible binding

of components which may result in possible damage to the

milling machine, the workpiece, or the operator.

Always make sure the machine is properly lubricated.

Do not force a tool.

Select the feed rate and depth of cut that are best suited to the

design, construction, and purpose of the cutting tool. It is

always better to take too light a cut than too heavy a cut.

Use the right tool.

Select the type of cutting tool best suited to the milling

operation. Don't force a tool or attachment to do a job it wasn't

designed for.

Maintain cutting tools

in good condition.

Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Lubricate and clean milling

center components on a regular basis.

Mount the cutting tool

correctly.

Each cutting tool used in the milling operation must be sharp

and properly installed in the spindle. The cutting edge of the

tool must be on the centerline or just below the centerline

(0.004 inch or 0.1 mm maximum) of the axis of rotation of the

milling machine

Secure the workpiece.

Be certain that the workpiece is firmly clamped to the table or

secured in a vice.

Tighten all holding,

locking and driving

devices.

Tighten the work holders and tool holders. Do not over tighten

these devices. Over tightening may damage threads or warp

parts, thereby reducing accuracy and effectiveness.

Turn the spindle by

hand before starting.

Manually turning the spindle allows you to safely determine

that the tool will not hit the milling center bed, cross slide, or

stock on start up.
