Titman :: Titman product safety guidelines

Info

Note the following safety points:

Ensure that collets are clean and not worn. Worn collets cause vibration which cause breakages.
Cutters must be inserted into the collet up to 3/4 of the shank length, i.e. P12 x 1/4 has 1 1/4 (32mm) shank length - ensure 25mm is inserted into collet and secure tightly, do not over tighten.
Do not use 2” cut length cutters for short cut depths, i.e. H122 2” cut depth to produce 1/2 deep grooves, select shorter - cut length Ref H12.
Allow machine to run at full revs before attempting the cut.
Even feed rates are required to prevent undue breakages.
Workpieces must be clamped firmly and safely.
Always wear protective goggles.
Any cutter that does not perform satisfactorily or vibrates on cut or causes a high pitch screech when cutting - remove from machine and return to Titman's.
Ensure your machine has a good extraction for operator safety and improve cutter performance.
Do not exceed the recommended RPM marked on the cutter shank.
