    1. Never attempt to program this CNC machine without proper training.
    2. Never pre-program any CNC lathe to perform operations beyond the capacity of the machine.
    3. Confirm all CNC programming instructions for the lathe.
    4. Ensure that the material workpiece is secured before turning.
    5. Ensure that the coolant system is operational before turning.
    6. Ensure all robotic tool array movements remain unobstructed during the turning operation.
    7. Never leave the CNC lathe in operational mode while unattended.

    HOUSEKEEPING
    1. On completion, isolate the switches. Leave the machine in a tidy, clean and safe manner.
