Danger! Electrical Hazard
Operate saw in dry environment only.
Operate saw only on a power source match-
ing the following requirements (see also
"Technical specifications"):
-
Fuse protection by a residual current oper-
ated device (RCD) of 30 mA sensitivity;
-
Outlets properly grounded;
-
Outlets for 3-phase circuits with neutral
lead.
Position power supply cable so it does not
interfere with the work and is not damaged.
Protect power supply cable from heat,
aggressive liquids and sharp edges.
Use only rubber-jacketed cable of sufficient
lead cross-section.
Do not pull on power supply cable to unplug.
B
Change of direction of rotation!
(only for machines with three-phase
motor)
Depending on phase sequence it is possible
that the saw blade turns in the wrong direc-
tion. This can lead to the workpiece being
thrown about when attempting to make a cut.
Always check direction of rotation after every
connection to another outlet or circuit.
With a
wrong direction of rotation the phase
inverter on the power supply cable's plug
must be set:
1. After the saw is assembled, with all guards and
safety devices operational, connect it to the
power supply.
2. Raise saw blade fully.
3. Start saw and switch off immediately.
4. Watch the blade's direction of rotation from the
left-hand side of the saw.
It must turn clock-
wise.
5. If the blade turns counter-clockwise, disconnect
power supply cable from the saws combination
switch/plug.
6. With a flat bit screwdriver push the plug's phase
inverter in and turn by 180
°
.
A
Caution!
Do not turn the phase inverter by
the contact pins!
Operation
·
Check the following for proper operation before
starting work:
-
emergency stop switch;
-
riving knife;
-
blade guard;
-
push stick.
·
Use personal protection gear:
-
dust respirator;
-
hearing protection;
-
safety glasses.
·
Assume proper work position:
-
in front of the saw on the infeed side;
-
frontal to the saw;
-
to the left of the line of cut.
-
If working with two persons the second per-
son should stand at a rear table extension.
·
Use if required for the type of work:
-
rear table extension (accessory) if working
with two persons, or if otherwise workpiece
would fall off the saw table;
-
dust extraction kit (accessory);
A
Danger!
Replace dull blades without delay. Risk of
kickback if a dull tooth gets caught in the
workpiece's surface.
-
Do not stop the saw blade by exerting lateral
pressure against it. Risk of kickback.
-
Always push the workpiece down on the saw
table, do not jam. Risk of kickback.
c
Dress code!
Do not wear loose clothing, jewellery or
gloves that can get caught in moving parts.
Confine long hair with hairnet.
