USE
PERMITTED USE - The machine has been designed and built for cold cutting metal materials. For this operation the
workpiece is held in place by a clamp and the cutting blade is held in the cutting position by the operator who stands in front of
the machine during use.
UNINTENDED USE - It's forbidden to:

Operate on non-metals, organic materials and/or food stuffs.

Operate on materials which may release toxic substances during the work process.

Use any type of lubricant during cutting.
This machine is not suitable for use in potentially explosive environments.
RESIDUAL RISKS
Shearing, cutting and severing hazard -
Risk indicated by this symbol:
Precautions to be taken:

During the cutting phase do not wear work gloves.

Keepnands away from the work area.

Never remove cutting residues or work piece fragments when the tool is rotating
Friction or abrasion hazard - This risk is due to the presence of the rotating blade.
Precautions to be taken:

When working with the tool do not wear work gloves.

Keep hands away from the work area.

Never remove cuttings or fragments from the machine when the blade is rotating.
Risk of flying debris -This risk is due to the presence of the rotating tool.
Precautions to be taken:

When working with the tool, always wear the necessary personal protective equipment: safety goggles, safety shoes.

Keep your face away from the cutting area.

Let the cut piece fall onto the base of the machine.

Never bring hands anywhere near the cutting zone until the head has returned to its full height and the blade has
come to a complete standstill.

To avoid breaking the blade, reduce pressure as soon as the blade comes into contact with the workpiece.

For electric saws, in the event of excessive cutting pressures, the current limiter will trip.

Lessen the cutting pressure to safeguard the machine.
NFORMATION CONCERNING NOISE
The noise values indicated are emission levels and not necessarily safe operating levels. While there is a correlation between
emission levels and exposure levels, this cannot reliably be used to determine whether or not further safety precautions are
needed. Factors which influence the real level of a worker's exposure include the duration of exposure, the characteristics of
the working environment, other sources of noise, for example the number of machines or operations being carried out in the
near vicinity. Furthermore, levels of safe exposure may be fixed differently from one country to another. This information does
however help the machine user to better assess the hazards and risks.
It is advisable to use suitable hearing protection such as earmuffs or ear plugs.
INFORMATION ON ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY
Electromagnetic emissions from the machine do not exceed the limits defined by the relative standards for the envisaged
conditions of use.
Check that the power supply system is equipped with a thermomagnetic circuit breaker to protect all conductors from
short circuit and overloads.
Vibrations - The mean frequency-weighted r.m.s. hand-arm acceleration value in normal cutting conditions using correctly
sharpened blades, is less than 2,5 m/s
2
.
Tesi Measurements were carried out in accordance with standards EN ISO 5349-1 and EN ISO 5349-2.
Vibrations during real machine use may differ from those declared as the total vibration value depends very much on
how the machine is used.
It is therefore necessary to identify the most appropriate safety measurements to safeguard the operator based on
estimated exposure times and real conditions of use.
