2 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
2.1 General Safety Rules
Danger always exists when using industrial holding equipment, especially if the equipment is
not being used properly or is poorly maintained. Because accidents and sever bodily injury or
death can result, special safety precautions apply to the installation, operation, inspection,
and maintenance of all holding equipment.
Following these simple rules can help to avoid accidents:
•
Never attempt to operate your magnetic chuck until you read and understand this
operator's manual.
•
Never disconnect a magnetic chuck from the control's DC power source while it is
energized! Electrical arcing will occur and may cause serious injury or death.
•
Only qualified personnel shall make adjustments within the control while it is
energized!
•
Never operate the chuck until it has been verified that a proper electrical ground
for the control and Chuck has been established.
•
Never operate damaged or malfunctioning controls or magnetic chucks.
Remember, proper holding knowledge and techniques in the use of this equipment are the
responsibility of the operator. Be sure to read and understand the instructions and safety
warnings contained in this manual before using your chuck control and magnetic chuck.
