Javier Santillana - Haas Basic Lathe Operator Feedback

Javier,

          Loaded the stock in the chuck following instructions pulling the stock against the stop closing the chuck and remembering to remove the chuck key. 

He started the program safely using single block watching the distance to go position at 5% rapid.

He also knew the control key functions and knew that he should not touch the overrides buttons.

You can tell he had little experience running the actual machine and can use some practice to get more comfortable load the part.
