Emergency opening of the working chamber door
Cutting injuries caused by rotating tools
If a power failure or a machine malfunction occurs during machining, the spindle including the inserted tool keeps rotating. If you touch the rotating tool, you will suffer from cutting injuries.
- Wait until the spindle has stopped rotating before performing an emergency opening.
- Do not carry out the emergency opening during regular operation.
