1417 Safety information on how to use cutting tools 1. Basic information Karnasch packages are labeled with general safety information. The tools are not labeled with detailed warning instructions. We suggest to read our safety information and instructions before handling cutting tools. Furthermore, as a part of your workers safety briefing, please notify the contents of the safety information to all your workers. 2. Suggestions on how to use cutting tools Hazard Counteraction • Solid carbide tools have sharp edges. Handling them with bare hand may cause injuries. • Wear protective gloves when handling tools. • Cutting tools and workpieces can become extremely hot during machining. Touching them with bare hand may cause burns. • Wear protective gloves. • Hot chips produced during the cutting process may cause burns and injuries. • Make sure, that the guard doors are closed on the machine and protection goggles are used. During machine cleaning ensure the machine is stopped and wear protection gloves. • Hot chips, sparks and heat generation during the cutting process (e.g. by tool breakage) provides a risk of igniting a fire. • Avoid using cutting tools in environments where there is a possibility of igniting fire. If it is not possible to use a cooling lubricant, make sure to have a fire prevention countermeasure. • The use of cutting tools with inappropriate cutting conditions or inappropriate cutting tools may cause the tool to break and providing risk of injuries. • Make sure, that the guard doors are closed on the machine and protection goggles are used. Use cutting tools under recommended cutting conditions. • Impact load and rapid increase of cutting forces to excessive wear may cause the tool to break. This provides a risk of injuries. • Make sure, that the guard doors are closed on the machine and protection goggles are used. Change tools before excessive wear occurs. • Microtools have an extremely small diameter with a very sharp point which may puncture the skin if not handled carefully. • Handle Microtools always with care and wear always suitable gloves. • During High speed cutting spare parts and chips may be expelled due to centrifugal forces. This may cause injuries. • Make sure, that the guard doors are closed on the machine and protection goggles and protective clothes are worn. • Poor balanced spindles or off centered revolving of tools and workpieces which are poorly fixed may cause vibrations and chattering which could cause the tool to break. • Adjust accuracy and balance of spindles and check the clamping of the workpiece to prevent off center revolving and chattering. Use cutting tools under recommended cutting conditions. • If cutting tools are not held securely, they may become loose and produce risk of injuries. • Make sure, that chucks are always clean and without damages. Always check if the tool is clamped safely in the chucks before you use the tools. Only use parts which are suitable. • Clamping cutting tools too tightly may cause them to break which may causes injuries. • Only use the recommended tools for clamping cutting under recommended conditions. • Handling machining parts with burs using bare hands may cause injuries. • Wear safety clothes, safety goggles and safety gloves. • Machines and tools could be damaged if they are used for purposes other than the prescribed applications. • Use them strictly and only for the prescribed application.
