-The

following

recommendations

for

safe

workingmethods

are

given

as

examples,additional

tothe

information

onthe

machinecharacteristics.

-

Whenworkingwith

the

spindle

2

fixed

and

when

be

used.

-

Nevertheless,

the

user

must

also

follow

the

operatinginstructions

in

order

to

avoid

accidents.

1.

Training

of

machine

users

Itis

absolutelynecessary

that

the

spindle-moulderuserreceivescomprehensivetraining

regarding

operating

and

adjusting

the

machine.

In

particular

:

a)

the

risksinvolved

in

workingwith

the

machine;

b)

the

operatingprinciples,

the

correctusage

and

adjustment

ofthe

machine;

c)

the

correctchoice

ofthe

tools

for

eachoperation;

d)

the

safe

handling

of

parts

tobe

machined;

e)

the

position

ofthe

hands

in

relation

tothe

cutterblock;

f)

storing

the

pieces

ina

safe

way

before

and

after

machiningthem.

2.

Stability

In

order

tobe

able

tousethe

machine

ina

safeway.

itis

absolutelynecessary

to

place

itina

stableposition

onthe

ground

or

another

stablesurface.

3.

Adjustment

and

installation

a)

Disconnect

the

machine

from

its

power

supply

before

every

j

b)

The

recommendations

ofthe

manufacturer

must

befollowed

when

adjusting

and

installing

the

tools.

c)

The

tools

must

be

suited

tothe

material

which

hastobe

worked

in

order

to

assure

a

safe

and

efficient

usage.

The

tools

must

be

correctly

sharpened

and

installed,

with

toolholders

that

are

carefully

balanced.

4.

Handling

of

tools

In

order

to

avoidseverecuts,safetymeasures

must

be

takenwhenhandlingtools.

5.

Installing

tools

Special

equipment,such

as

toolsettinggauges,must

be

onlyusedwhen

the

machine

isnot

operating.Tableinsertringsmust

be

used

in

order

to

reduce

toa

minimum

the

spacebetween

the

table

andthe

spindleshaft.

6.

Rotationdirection

and

choice

of

speeds

Itis

veryimportant

that

the

chosentoolturns

inthe

rightdirection.When

the

piece

is

presen-

ted,

the

operator

must

takecare

that

the

workpiece

isfedinthe

correctdirection

and

that

the

correctspeed

has

beenchosen.

The

speedmustalso

be

suited

tothe

tool

onthe

machine.

7.

Functioning

ofthe

machine,

choice

of

safety

equipment

and

adjustment

Because

ofthe

varioustasks

that

canbe

carried

out

with

the

varioustypes

of

spindleshafts,

spindle

holders

and

cutterblocks,

different

types

of

safety

equipment

must

be

used.

Every

operationmust

be

examinedseparately,then

the

correctguardingmust

be

chosen.

The

minimalopening

inthe

tablealsodepends

onthe

type

of

cutterblock,diameter

ofthe

kni-

vesand

height

in

which

the

cutterblock

is

adjusted.This

canbe

done

by

using

the

tableinsert

rings

which

are

deliveredwith

the

machine.

In

that

way,

the

opening

isas

small

as

possible,

and

the

piece

canno

longer

flip

over

andhitthe

knives.

Using

a

powerfeeder

can

prevent

most

seriousaccidentsinvolving

the

hands.Suchfeeders

can

easily

be

adjusted

and

adapted

tothe

size

ofthe

pieces.

When

no

power

feeder

is

used,

the

woodpushers

must

be

used,

the

horizontal

and

vertical

springsmaking

a

tunnel

in

which

the

piece

canbe

slid.Thispusher,togetherwithothersafety

equipment,

reduces

thegap

between

the

cuttingtool

andthe

guidefences.

8.

Workingwith

the

spindle

fence

when

the

totallength

ofthe

piece

hastobe

machined

In

most

cases

a

straightspindleguard

fence

is

used.

The

pieces

can

thereforeguided

inthe

anglemade

bythe

table

andthe

fence.

The

vertical

and

horizontalpushers

canbe

placed

in

such

a way

that

theymake

a

tunnel

in

which

the

first

piece

canbe

pushed.

The

secondpiece

is

thenused

to

push

the

first

one,

the

lastpiece

is

pushedforwardwith

a

woodpusher.

Special

blocks

must

be

usedrelative

tothe

dimensions

ofthe

piece.Whenworkingpanels

of

smallthickness,only

thetopofthe

spring

maybe

used,

on

condition

that

the

thickness

matches.

On

a

spindle-moulder,

the

distancebetween

the2

extremities

ofthe

spindleguardfence

must

be

largeenough

to

leaveenoughspace

forthe

cutter

block.Thus

the

knives,

the

cutterblock

andthe

spindleshaft

maybe

exposed

andthe

extremity

ofthe

piece

may

come

in

contact

with

the

nose

ofthe

exitspindleguardfence.

Theserisks

canbe

avoided

by

using

a

false

fencebetween

the2

spindleguardfences

thus

limi-

ting

the

openingbetween

them.

9.

Workingwith

the

spindlefencewhenonly

a

part

ofthe

piece

is

machined

Whenworkingwith

the

spindlefence,

and

thisbetween

2

stops

fixed

onto

the

machinetable

or

fences,

only

a

part

ofthe

workpiece

is

machined.

By

doing

so,the

cuttingtool

starts

to

machine

the

wood

inthe

full

section

ofthe

wood,

and

does

not

start

atthe

front,where

the

cutting

action

is

more

gradual,

and

less

severe.

The

cuttingaction

is

stopped

before

the

workpiece

endis

reached.Thisaction

is

verydange-

rous

and

needsspecialcare

and

attention.

A

stop,

solidly

fixed

atthe

front

and

back,must

be

used(see

the

examplefurther

in

thismanual).

!!!A

piece

may

only

be

guided

by

handwhen

itis

sufficiently

large,

inall

othercases

a

gauge

or

a

supportwithprotection

must

be

used

in

order

to

avoidseriousaccidents.

By

means

ofthe

gauge,

the

piece

can

quickly

and

precisely

beput

intoplace

and

firmly

heldthere.

A

quickclampingsystem,workingwith

tumblers

or

with

cams,

isthe

most

practical

system

to

hold

the

piece.

When

the

front

and

backstops

are

fixed

tothe

spindleguardfence

ortothe

table,

a

bettercon-

trol

ofthe

gauge

is

possible.

10.

Workingwith

the

ringquard

Whenworkingwith

the

ringguard,

a

support

must

be

used,exceptwhen

a

certainprocessdoes

not

allow

this,

i.e.when

the

piece

istoo

large

to

make

theuseofthe

supportpractical,

or

when

the

piece

isso

small

orso

difficult

to

machine

that

it

cannot

be

held

inthe

supportwithout

danger.

Thefinal

shape

is

obtained

by

holding

the

gaugeagainst

a

guidancebearingwhich

is

fixed

to

the

spindle

while

the

piece

is

held

against

the

tool.

The

gauge

canbe

part

ofthe

support.

11.

Chamfering

When

chamfering,

a

solidsupport

ora

tiltableadjustablespindleguard

fence

must

be

used.

A

woodpusher

must

be

used

forthe

final

part

ofthe

machining.

12.

Working

Itis

extremelydangerous

to

work

inthe
