instructions
1. The feed line for the motor may only be connected to a shock-proof socket or juction box.
(Have the socket or junction box checked by an electrician beforehand; protection against chil-
dren being able to put into operation).
2. The socket or junction box must be close enough to the equipment, that the current-carrying
cable is subjected to no tensile strain whatsoever.
3. When maintenance or cleaning work is being done, the machine must be shutdown and the
mains plug pulled out.
4.
Do not brake workpieces or chuck by hand or any other objects.
5.
Wear safety goggles when working the machine.
