2 GENERAL WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS
WARNING
1 Before operating the machine, thoroughly check the
entered data. Operating the machine with incorrectly
specified data may result in the machine behaving
unexpectedly, possibly causing damage to the
workpiece and/or machine itself, or injury to the user.
2 Never attempt to machine a workpiece without first
checking the programmed value, compensation
value, current position, and external signal settings.
Also, never attempt to machine a workpiece without
first checking the operation of the machine. Before
starting a production run, ensure that the machine is
operating correctly by performing a trial run using, for
example, the single block, feedrate override, or
machine lock function, or by operating the machine
with neither a tool nor workpiece mounted. Failure to
confirm the correct operation of the machine may
result in the machine behaving unexpectedly,
possibly causing damage to the workpiece and/or
machine itself, or injury to the user.
3 Ensure that the specified feedrate is appropriate for
the intended operation. Generally, for each machine,
there is a maximum allowable feedrate. The
appropriate feedrate varies with the intended
operation. Refer to the manual provided with the
machine to determine the maximum allowable
feedrate. If a machine is run at other than the correct
speed, it may behave unexpectedly, possibly
causing damage to the workpiece and/or machine
itself, or injury to the user.
4 When using a tool compensation function,
thoroughly check the direction and amount of
compensation.
Operating the machine with incorrectly specified data
may result in the machine behaving unexpectedly,
possibly causing damage to the workpiece and/or
machine itself, or injury to the user.
