3.6 SAFETY DEVICES
The machine is equipped with the following safety
devices: (Fig.3.6)
A - Safety Switch.
Stops the machine if the guard is opened to perform
operations on the blade.
B - Saw blade guard
Emergency Switch
When the button is pressed, the power will been cut
immediately. It is a mechanical-operated push-button.
Reset this button by turning it clockwise.
Ensure that the suction system guarantees these values
at the hood-houth connection point. (Fig.3.5)
Suction mouth diameter:
A - Blade guard ...... ø40 mm
B - Body dust suction ...... ø120 mm
Connect the mouths to the suction system with flexible
tubes of adequate diameter. Tighten with clamps. The
tube must be positioned in such a way so as not to
obstruct the operator during machining.
WARNING
Always work with the suction system on. Always start the
suction system and the machine at the same time.

3.5 DUST EXTRACTION
Proper suction eliminates the risks of dust inhalation and
aids better functioning of the machine. The tables list the
minimum air flow and speed values referenced to each
single suction operation.The related pressure drop at the
dust port is 530Pa.
Upper hood
Lower hood
Air flow 140 cu.m/h
690 cu.m/h
Saw
Minimum air speed 20 m/s
WARNING
Please always use the hearing protection systems.
The noise levels measured are emission levels and not necessarily the safe working level. Although there is a
correlation between the emission levels and the exposure levels, this cannot be used reliably to determine whether or
not further precautions are required. The factors which affect the actual level of operator exposure include the duration
of exposure, the ambient characteristics and other sources of emission, for example, the number of machines and
other adjacent machining. The permitted exposure values may also vary from country to country. Nevertheless, this
information allows the user of the machine to better evaluate the dangers and risks.
Other factors which reduce exposure to noise are:
- correct tool choice
- tool and machine maintenance
- use of hearing protection systems (e.g. headsets, earplugs,...)
