CAUTION: Do not overheat the blade tips. Use of undue force will not speed up the cutting operation. Allow
the tool to determine the best feed rate.
CAUTION: When sawing plastics, avoid melting the plastic.
2. Electrical connection
The network voltage must conform to the voltage indicated on the tool name plate. Under no
circumstances should the tool be used when the power supply cable is damaged. A damaged cable must
be replaced immediately by an authorized Customer Service Center. Do not try to repair the damaged
cable yourself. The use of damaged power cables can lead to an electric shock.
3. Extension cable
If an extension cable is required, it must have a sufficient cross-section so as to prevent an excessive
drop in voltage or overheating. An excessive drop in voltage reduces the output and can lead to failure of
the motor. The following table shows you the correct cable diameter as a function of the cable length for
this machine. Use only U.L. and CSA listed extension cables. Never use two extension cables together.
Instead, use one long one.
4. Saw Blades
Only use saw blades with a diameter in accordance with the markings on the tool name plate:
Only use saw blades with blade set (cutting width) of 2.4 mm to 2.6 mm and blade core thickness of
maximum 1.8 mm. Saw blades must be suitable for speeds of up to 5000 min -1 (for 230mm models)
or 5500 min -1 (for 160mm models). Do not use any abrasive wheel with this machine.
UNPACKING
Carefully remove the tool and all loose items from the shipping container.
Retain all packing materials until after you have inspected and satisfactorily operated the machine.
NOTE: An appropriate blade must be mounted to the machine before operating. Refer to the section of this
manual: “INSTALLING THE BLADE”
