General Instructions for 230V Machines
4
The following will enable you to observe good
working practices, keep yourself and fellow workers
safe and maintain your tools and equipment in good
working order.
Mains Powered Tools
•Tools are supplied with an attached 13 Amp plug.
•Inspect the cable and plug to ensure that neither
are damaged.Repair if necessary by a suitably
qualified person.
•Do not use when or where it is liable to get wet.
Workplace
•Do not use 230V a.c. powered tools anywhere
within a site area that is flooded.
•Keep machine clean.
WARNING!! KEEP TOOLS AND
EQUIPMENT OUT OF REACH OF
YOUNG CHILDREN.
KEEP WORK AREA AS
UNCLUTTERED AS IS PRACTICAL.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES
SHOULD CHILDREN BE ALLOWED
IN WORK AREAS.
•Leave machine unplugged until work is about to
commence.
•Always disconnect by pulling on the plug body
and not the cable.
•Carry out a final check e.g. check the cutting tool
is securely tightened in the machine and the
correct speed and function set.
•Ensure you are comfortable before you start work,
balanced,not reaching etc.
•Wear appropriate safety clothing, goggles, gloves,
masks etc.Wear ear defenders at all times.
•If you have long hair wear a hair net or helmet to
prevent it being caught up in the rotating parts of
the machine.
•Consideration should be given to the removal
of rings and wristwatches.
•Consideration should also be given to non-slip
footwear etc.
•If another person is to use the machine, ensure they
are suitably qualified to use it.
•Do not use the machine if you are tired or distracted.
•Do not use this machine within the designated
safety areas of flammable liquid stores or in areas
where there may be volatile gases.
•Check cutters are correct type and size,are
undamaged and are kept clean and sharp.This will
maintain their operating performance and lessen
the loading on the machine.
• OBSERVE…. make sure you know what is
happening around you and USE YOUR COMMON
SENSE.

Specific Safety for Dust Extractors
5
DO NOT use this machine as a vacuum cleaner, try to
keep the waste medium to wood by-products.
DO NOT uplift workshop floor debris (stones, nails,
screws, paper etc., etc). Be aware that wood dust is an
explosive medium.
DO NOT allow any ‘naked light’ source to occur
anywhere near the machine.This includes cigarettes,
matches, etc, and do not place the machine near
any unprotected light bulbs, that could possibly get
broken.
The suction force is generated by a high speed fan
unit.This has the potential to amputate fingers, grab
loose clothing (ties etc.,) and‘bat’large chips etc, at
high speeds. Keep all guarding in place,and if access
to the fan becomes necessary (due to blockage etc.,)
disconnect the machine from the mains supply
and ensure the fan has come to a complete stop
before putting your hands anywhere near it.
If you are not using‘clear’ extraction hose, periodically
remove the hose to check that the inlet to the
machine is not getting restricted.The safety guard
grill of the inlet duct can be particularly irksome
in this way, as long strand shavings etc.,can wrap
around the grill fret.
KEEP the particle filter clean.The machine relies on
its ability to ‘blow’ air through the filter to generate
good suction. If the particle filter starts to clog this
reduces the air flow and the machine becomes less
efficient.
The particle filter can be cleaned by using an ‘M’ class
vacuum cleaner clean the inside of the filter.
BE AWARE that in dry air periods or areas the
movement of the air through the machine can
generate static electric fields.These are not normally
a problem as the machine is bonded together via its
construction and the whole is earthed back through
the electrical supply.Problems can occur, however
with isolated items such as stands or hosing that are
insulated from the ground (standing on rubber feet,
suspended in the air etc). If possible, try to connect
everything together electrically to eliminate static
shocks. Use the integral metal coil in flexible hosing
to connect the units together.
Try to route the power cable and the hosing away
from busy walkways.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES
SHOULD CHILDREN BE ALLOWED
IN WORK AREAS. KEEP THE WORK
AREA AS UNCLUTTERED AS IS
PRACTICAL,THIS INCLUDES
PERSONNEL AS WELL AS
MATERIAL.
WARNING! KEEP TOOLS AND
EQUIPMENT OUT OF THE REACH
OF YOUNG CHILDREN.
ONLY USE DUST EXTRACTION
BAGS WITH THIS MACHINE NOT
DOMESTIC WASTE BAGS!
