A WARNING REGARDING RESIDUAL RISK

The following risks are inherent to the use of these
machines:
• Injuries caused by touching the rotating parts
• Injuries caused by disruption of the cutting blade

These risks are most evident:
• Within the range of operation
• Within the range of the rotating machine parts

In spite of the application of the relevant safety regulations
and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual
risks cannot be avoided. These are:
• Impairment of hearing.
• Risk of accidents caused by the uncovered parts of the

rotating cutting blade.

• Risk of injury when changing the blade.
• Risk of squeezing fingers when opening the guards.
• Braking should be verified every before use,running the

machine, switch off then check the stopping time.

• Only sawblades made in conformity to EN 847-1:1997

shall be used on the machine;

• The machine during indoor use shall be connected to an

extemal chip and dust extraction system;

• A Residual Current Device (RCD) should be used

SETTING AND MAINTENANCE REQUIRE

• The machine should be checked whether inner and

outer blade cover, left and right side table moving cover,
inner and outer flange of blade and blade are proper
before operation.

• Pushing the moving worktable forward and check

whether left and right table moving cover and inner and
outer blade touch each other as to avoid unnecessary
damage, while the log saw is working after turning-on
the power.

• Please turn off the power supply after using, cleaning

the machine, save at dry airiness place.

SAFE WORKING PRACTICE

It is essential all operators are:
• Adequately trained in the use, adjustment and operation

of the machine.

• Instructed in factors that influence exposure to noise

e.g.: sawblade designed to reduce the emitted noise;
sawblade and machine maintenance.

• Informed of factors that influence exposure to dust e.g.:

type of material being machined; importance of local
extraction(capture at source); proper adjustment of
hoods/baffles/chutes; where provided, dust extraction
equipment to be switched on before commencing
machining.

It is important that:.
• During operation the machine is standing on level,

horizontal ground and that the floor area around the
machine is level, well maintained and free from loose
material e.g. chips and off-cuts;

• Adequate general or localized lighting is provided;
• Stock and finished workpieces are located close to the

operators normal working position.

It is essential for the operator to:
• Use a push block or push stick to avoid working with

the hands close to the sawblade when using a dual
purpose circular sawing machine for firewood/circular
saw bench in the saw bench mode;

• Wear suitable personal protective equipment when

necessary; this could include;
- hearing protection to reduce the risk of induced
hearing loss;
- respiratory protection to reduce the risk of inhalation
of harmful dust;
- gloves for handling sawblades (sawblades should be
carried in a holder wherever practicable)

• Refrain from cross cutting logs on a machine in the saw

bench mode;

• Stop the machine running whilst unattended
• Report faults in the machine, including guards or

sawblades, as soon as they are discovered;

• Adopt safe procedures for cleaning, maintenance and

remove chips and dust regularly to avoid the risk of fire

• follow manufacturers instruction for use, adjustment

and repair of sawblades

• Select the correct riving knife, depending on the

sawblade thickness, when using a dual purpose circular
sawing machine for firewood/circular sawbench in the
saw bench mode;

• Observe the maximum speed marked on the sawblades;
• Use correctly sharpened sawblades;
• Ensure that any spacers and spindle rings used are

suitable for the purpose as stated by the manufacturer;

• Refrain from removing any off-cut or other part of the

workpiece from the cutting area whilst the machine is
running except by using a push stick;

• Ensure that guards and other safety devices necessary

machine operation are in position, in good working order
and properly maintained.

IMPORTANT!

Through poor conditions of the electrical MAINS, shortly
voltage drops can appear when starting the EQUIPMENT.
This can influence other equipment (eg. Blinking of a
lamp). If the MAINS-IMPEDANCE Zmax<0.317 OHM, such
disturbances are not expected. (In case of need, you may
contact your local supply authority for further information).
