Safety instructions

Danger
Always observe the following safety
instructions and the safety
regulations applicable in the
respective country of use!
General instructions:
- Children and adolescents must not operate this
machine. This rule does not apply to young
persons receiving training and being supervised by
an expert.
- Never work without the protection devices
prescribed for the respective operating sequence
and do not make any changes to the machine that
could impair safety.
- When operating the machine outdoors, use of an
earth-leakage circuit-breaker is recommended.
- Damaged cables or plugs must be immediately
replaced.
- Avoid sharp bends in the cable. Especially when
transporting and storing the machine, do not wind
the cable around the machine.
Instructions on the use of personal protective
equipment:
- Always wear ear protectors during work.
- Always where a dust mark during work.
Instructions on operation:
- Provide for an unobstructed and slip-proof location
with sufficient lighting.
- The power plug must be pulled before replacing
tools, making
malfunctions (this also comprises removing
jammed splinters).
- Do not work on workpieces which are too small or
too large for the capability of the machine.
- Clamp the mortising chain and the guide rail
properly and keep it in good repair. Before reusing
them, repair
professionally and only use sharp mortising chains!
- Caution: For machines without guide support stand
FG 150, use solely 100 mm (3 5/16 inch) mortising
chain sets!
- Remove the chain guard only for a tool change
and screw it back on again immediately
afterwards. Never work without chain guard!
- Never transport the chain mortiser with running
mortising chain and avoid touching the ground with
the running mortising chain!
- The switch may not be wedged.
- Before switching on the mortising chain, check
whether it is properly tensioned.
- Whenever possible secure the workpiece from
pivoting or sliding away, overturning and luffing up,
e.g by means of clamps.
- Only begin mortising the workpiece when the
mortising chain has achieved its full speed.
- Examine the workpiece for foreign objects. Never
attempt to stem into metal objects, such as nails.
- Keep a firm hold on the machine already before
switching it on. The mortising chain must stand
unobstructed while doing so. Apply the machine for
the mortising operation with running mortising
chain. Pay attention to a secure footing.
- Always lead the connecting cable away from the
machine to the rear while mortising.
- Match the feed speed during mortising to the
material thickness. Mortising too quickly leads to
