Electrical Connection

The Ribbon Saw SF.250.C MAKSIWA has a single-
phase motor with connection option 110 and 220V. To 
avoid burning risks, the motor leaves the factory 
connected to 220V. Check the electrical voltage of your 
outlet before starting the machine. If necessary, change 
the electrical connection of the motor with the help of a 
specialized technician.

Make sure your power supply matches the designation 
on the plate. A 10% decrease in voltage or more will 
cause loss of power and overheating. All MAKSIWA 
equipment is tested at the factory. If this tool does not 
work, check the power supply.

Check the compatibility between your outlet and the 
machine's plug. Avoid making patches and adaptations.

Familiarize yourself with the machine

Place the machine on a smooth, flat surface. Check the 
figures and pay attention to the description of the parts to 
familiarize yourself with its different components. The 
next section will deal with the necessary adjustments for 
a good functioning of the machine, and will refer to the 
termination that accompanies the illustrations.

 

To do this, you must know these parts and you must 
know where they are. The name of each component is 
followed by a corresponding number in the illustration.
