event of an overload. The motor can be switched
on again after a cooling down period that can
vary.
Defective Electrical Connection Cables
Electrical connection cables often suffer insulation
damage.
Possible causes are:
• Pinch points when connection cables are run
through window or door gaps.
• Kinks resulting from incorrect attachment or
laying of the connection cable.
• Cuts resulting from running over the connecting
cable.
• Insulation damage resulting from forcefully
pulling out of the wall socket.
• Cracks through aging of insulation.
Such defective electrical connection cables must
not be used as the insulation damage makes
them extremely hazardous.
Check electrical connection cables regularly for
damage.
Make sure the cable is disconnected from the
mains when checking.
Electrical connection cables must comply with
the regulations applicable in your country.
Single-phase Motor
• The mains voltage must coincide with the
voltage specified on the motor’s rating plate.
• Extension cables up to a length of 25 m must
have a cross-section of 1.5 mm
2
, and beyond 25
m at least 2.5 mm
2
.
• The connection to the mains must be protected
with a 16 A slow-acting fuse. Only a qualified
electrician is permitted to connect the machine
and complete repairs on its electrical equipment.
In the event of enquiries please specify the
following data:
• Motor manufacturer
• Type of motor voltage
• Data recorded on the machine’s rating plate
• Data recorded on the switch’s rating plate
If a motor has to be returned, it must always be
dispatched with the complete driving unit and
switch.
Proper Use
• The machine must only be used in technically
perfect condition in accordance with its
designated use and the instructions
set out in the operating manual, and only
by safety-conscious persons who are fully aware
of the risks involved in operating the machine.
Any functional disorders, especially those
affecting the safety of the machine, should
therefore be rectified immediately.
• Any other use exceeds authorization. The
manufacturer is not responsible for any damages
resulting from unauthorized use; risk is the sole
responsibility of the operator.
• The safety, work and maintenance instructions
of the manufacturer as well as the technical data
given in the calibrations and dimensions must be
adhered to.
• Relevant accident prevention regulations and
other, generally recognized safety-technical rules
must also be adhered to.
• The machine may only be used, maintained,
and operated by persons familiar with it and
instructed in its operation and procedures.
Arbitrary alterations to the machine release
the manufacturer from all responsibility for any
resulting damages.
• The machine may only be used with original
accessories and tools made by the manufacturer.
Remaining Hazards
The machine has been built using modern
technology in accordance with recognized
safety rules. Some remaining hazards,
however, may still exist.
• Only process selected woods without defects
such as:
Branch knots, edge cracks, surface cracks. Wood
with such defects is prone to splintering and can
be hazardous.
• Wood which is not glued correctly can explode
when being processed due to centrifugal force.
• Trim work piece to a rectangular shape,
center and correctly secure before processing.
Unbalanced work pieces can be hazardous.
