Device description
General risks during internal transport
Devices may only be transported by authorized and qua-
lified persons. Act responsibly during transport and al-
ways consider the consequences. Refrain from daring
and risky actions.
Gradients and descents (e.g. driveways, ramps and the
like) are particularly dangerous. If such passages are
unavoidable, special caution is required.
Before starting the transport check the transport route for
possible danger points, unevenness and disturban-ces
as well as for sufficient strength and load capacity.
Danger points, unevenness and disturbance points must
be inspected before transport. The removal of danger
spots, disturbances and unevenness at the time of trans-
port by other employees leads to considerable dangers.
Careful planning of internal transport is therefore essen-
tial.
Transport with a forklift / pallet truck:
For shipping, the boxed unit is delivered on a pallet so
that it can be transported by forklift or pallet truck.
5.2 Packaging
All used packaging materials and packaging aids of the
panel saw are recyclable and must always be recycled.
Packing components made of cardboard are crushed to
waste paper collection.
The foils are made of polyethylene (PE) and the uphol-
stery parts made of polystyrene (PS). You can hand over
these substances to a recycling center or to the disposal
company responsible for you.
5.3 Storage
Thoroughly clean the panel saw in a dry, clean and frost-
free environment. Cover the machine with a protective
tarpaulin.
Ambient temperature range: -25 ° C to +55 ° C.

Operation of the Panel saw
When making electrical connections, make sure that the
characteristics (voltage, mains frequency, protection)
match those on the rating plate and for the motor.
Requirements for the power grid:
- Overvoltage protection and undervoltage protec-
tion
- Voltage deviation from the nominal value: 0.9-1.1
- Frequency deviation from the nominal value: 0.99-
1.01
- Hedging: 16 A
Step 1: Check that the panel saw is switched off.
Step 2: Connect the machine to the mains and check the
direction of motor rotation. If the direction of rota-
tion is wrong, two phases must be exchanged.
8 Operation of the Panel saw
With the sliding table of the sliding table saw large-sized
workpieces can be cut, without the stresses that would
occur through sawing on a stationary table.
In addition, the saw can be used as a regular table saw
to cut smaller workpieces.
