Safety rules for correct use
Warning
Before connecting the machine to a power source or outlet, make sure that the voltage
supply is the same as that specified on the machine's nameplate.
A power supply with a voltage higher than that specified for the machine can cause
serious injury to both personnel and the machine. In case of doubt, do not plug in the
machine and consult a specialist.
On the other hand, a power supply with a voltage lower than that specified is detrimental
to the motor of the machine.
Note: Your machine is double insulated to provide additional protection against a possible
electrical insulation failure within the tool.
Always remove the plug from the outlet before performing any adjustments or
maintenance, including changing the blade.
- When operating the saw, wear safety equipment including safety glasses or
shield, hearing protection, dust mask, and protective clothing, including safety
gloves.
- Make sure there is adequate general or spot lighting.

- Make sure the operator is properly trained in the use, adjustment and
maintenance of the machine.

detected.
