SAFETY PROCEDURE FOR FURTHER RISKS
– Do not force the machine unnecessarily: excessive
cutting pressure may lead to rapid deterioration of the
blade and a decrease in performance in terms of fi nish
and cutting precision.
– When cutting aluminium or plastics, it is advisable to use
the clamps designed for this purpose: all workpieces must
be clamped down fi rmly.
– Avoid accidental starts: do not press the start button while
inserting the plug into the socket.
– Always use the tools recommended in this manual to
obtain the best results from your cutting-off machine.
– Always keep hands away from the work area when the
machine is running; before performing tasks of any kind
release the main switch button located on the handgrip,
thus disconnecting the machine.

NOTE: When cutting aluminium the use of protective
earphones or ear plugs is absolutely necessary.
The use of this gear is also recommended for all
other uses.
