Always keep hands away from the cutting area and
do not try to approach it when the machine is running.
Working with the machine
m ATTENTION! Please observe all mentioned safe-
ty informations and the following rules when working:
• Only guide the machine against the workpiece
when it is switched on.
• Always secure the workpiece in such a manner that
it cannot move while being processed.
• Always push the machine forwards, never draw the
machine towards yourself.
• Adapt the fast-feed speed to prevent the cutters on
the saw blade from overheating and prevent plastic
materials from melting during cutting.
• For work that generates dust, wear a dust mask.
