Safety and Usage Guidelines

When running an automated machine tool, safety is of utmost importance. For
proper and safe use of the FlashCut CNC program and your CNC machine, the
following safety guidelines must be followed:

1. Never let the machine tool run unattended.

2. Require any person in the same room as a running machine tool to wear safety

goggles, and to stay a safe distance from the machine.

3. Allow only trained operators to run the machine tool. Any operator must have:

Knowledge of machine tool operation.
Knowledge of personal computer operation.
Knowledge of Microsoft Windows.
Good common sense.

4. Place safety guards around the machine to prevent injury from flying objects. It

is highly recommended that you build a safety shield around the entire tool
envelope. If your machine came with a safety hood, ensure that the hood is
closed at all times. The machine or spindle should never be on while the hood is
open.

5. Never place any part of your body within the tool envelope while the machine is

online, since unexpected machine movement can occur at any time.

6. Always keep the tool envelope tidy and free of any loose objects. Clean the

machine regularly and remove chips and dust deposits.

7. Be alert for computer crashes at all times.

8. The machine must not be operated in combustible atmosphere.

9. Ensure sufficient ventilation for dust or gas resulting from cutting your parts.

10. Do not use alcohol as coolant (danger of explosion!).
