Safety instructions

Woodworking machines can be
dangerous when in use. You should
therefore always follow the safety
instructions set out in this chapter,
as well as the safety regulations
applicable in the country of use!
General instructions:
Never work without the protective equipment
prescribed for the relevant operation and do not
make any modifications to the machine that
could undermine safety.
Children and young persons must not operate
this machine. This rule does not apply to young
persons over the age of 16 years receiving
training and being supervised by an expert.
Prior to all work, make sure that the safety and
operating equipment is securely attached and
undamaged.
Always be aware of environmental influences.
Do not allow the machine to be exposed to the
rain and do not use the machine in a damp or
wet environment, or in the vicinity of inflam-
mable liquids or gases.
When operating the machine outdoors, use of
an earth-leakage circuit-breaker is recom-
mended.
Do not carry the machine by the cable and do
not remove the mains plug from the socket by
pulling on the cable.
Protect the cable against oil and high tempera-
tures and do not pull it over any sharp edges.
Damaged cables or plugs must be renewed
immediately.
Avoid sharp bends in the cable. Especially when
transporting and storing the machine, do not
wind the cable around the machine.
Do not use:
Cracked and misshapen disk cutters.
Blunt disk cutters which impose an exces-
sive load on the motor.
Store the machine in the dry under lock and key
and out of reach of children.
Instructions on the use of personal safety equip-
ment:
Always wear close-fitting industrial clothing and
remove rings, bracelets and watches.
The sound pressure level at the workplace
exceeds 85 dB (A). Users should therefore wear
ear protectors.
Instructions on operation:
Provide an uncluttered, anti-slip location with
adequate illumination.
Before tool changes, making adjustments and
eliminating malfunctions (including the removal
of trapped splinters), pull out the mains plug.
Never work with pieces which are too big or too
small for the machine´s capacity.
Before switching on, make sure that the disk
cutter ist tightly secured and that the Allen key
has been removed.
Whenever possible, secure the workpiece
against slipping (e. g. with screw clamps).
Do not begin cutting until the disk cutter has
reached full speed.
Examine the workpiece for foreign objects.
Never attempt to cut nails or other metal
objects.
When cutting, always lead the cable away from
the machine to the rear.
The sawdust created by cutting makes it difficult
to see as clearly as may be necessary and can
be damaging to health in certain circumstances.
If not working outdoors or on well ventilated
premises, the machine must be connected to an
extractor unit, such as a small portable dust
extractor, when operating for long periods. The
air velocity must be at least 20 m/s (65.6 ft/sec.).
Instructions on service and maintenance:
Regular cleaning of the machine, especially the
adjusting devices for the base plate and guide-
ways, is an important safety factor. Before
beginning this task, pull out the mains plug.
