12. Electrical connection
The electrical motor installed is connected and
ready for operation. The connection complies with
the applicable VDE and DIN provisions.
The customer's mains connection as well as the
extension cable used must also comply with these
regulations.
Important information
In the event of an overloading the motor will switch
itself off. After a cool-down period (time varies) the mo-
tor can be switched back on again.
Damaged electrical connection cable
The insulation on electrical connection cables is often
damaged.
This may have the following causes:
• Passage points, where connection cables are
passed through windows or doors.
• Kinks where the connection cable has been improp-
erly fastened or routed.
• Places where the connection cables have been cut
due to being driven over.
• Insulation damage due to being ripped out of the
wall outlet.
• Cracks due to the insulation ageing.
Such damaged electrical connection cables must not
be used and are life-threatening due to the insulation

damage.
Check the electrical connection cables for damage
regularly. Make sure that the connection cable does
not hang on the power network during the inspection.
Electrical connection cables must comply with the ap-
plicable VDE and DIN provisions. Only use connection
cables with the marking „H05VV-F".
The printing of the type designation on the connection
cable is mandatory.
AC motor
• The mains voltage must be 230 V~
• Extension cables up to 25 m long must have a
cross-section of 1.5 mm2.
Connections and repairs of electrical equipment
may only be carried out by an electrician.
Please provide the following information in the event of
any enquiries:
Type of current for the motor
• Machine data - type plate

13. Disposal and recycling
The equipment is supplied in packaging to prevent it
from being damaged in transit. The raw materials in
this packaging can be reused or recycled. The equip-
ment and its accessories are made of various types of
material, such as metal and plastic. Defective compo-
nents must be disposed of as special waste. Ask your
dealer or your local council.
Remedy
Arrange for inspection of the machine by a
specialist. Never repair the motor yourself. Danger!
Check fuses and replace as necessary
Contact the utility provider to check the voltage.
Arrange for inspection of the motor by a specialist.
Arrange for replacement of the capacitor by a
specialist
Arrange for inspection of the motor by a specialist
Do not use any other equipment or motors on the
same circuit
Avoid overloading the motor while cutting, remove
dust from the motor in order to ensure optimal
cooling of the motor
Readjust end stop of the saw unit
Resharpen saw blade and/or use suitable saw blade
Insert suitable saw blade
