Safety instructions when starting the PM400
The milling cup clamping device is easy and reliable to handle
and has proved itself for many years. The basic precondition
both for safety of the operator and for long service life of the
machine components is conscientious clamping of the milling
cups.
Please consider that the PM400 is a milling machine with a
very high power input into the milling material. For this
reason the milling cups must be fixed conscientiously.
In order to avoid operating faults correct milling cup fixing is
interrogated before starting the machine.
Personnel who have been particularly well trained and are
familiar with operation of the PM can permanently fade out
this safety instruction. However, if operating personnel are
changed frequently we do not recommend this procedure.
The software of the PM400 is set up in such a way that
when operating the start button the following display
appears, in which clamping of the milling cups has to
be confirmed before every machine start up.
After confirmation the milling process is started.
This safety instruction can be faded out in the “Settings”
menu.
Ensure that the milling cup is clamped before starting the
machine.
Milling cups can be ejected – danger of injury and
damage to equipment.
We recommend that this safety instruction is not faded out.
Always insert 2 opposite milling cups or 4 milling cups.
All cups must have the same gross weight.
