7. Lifting and transporting the
floor saw
The FS 1000 EM floor saw has a lifting eye, which must be
used when lifting the machine. Don't lift using any other parts,
as this could cause damage to the machine and personal injury.
If using a lifting strap, attach it to the lifting eye so that the
machine cannot tip over during lifting. See figure 7.1. When
transporting the floor saw, apply the parking brake and use
anchor straps or the like to prevent it from moving about. See
figure 7.3.
