Make sure that no objects fall from the lift truck / forklift truck.
Do not leave any objects / tools on the machine.
It is strictly prohibited to ride on the machine during a lifting operation (with the lift truck / fork-
lift truck). There is a danger of falling!
Unauthorised persons are not allowed to enter the installation area of the machine
(responsibility of the operator).
Be aware of possible tripping and slipping hazards on the floor. Prevent possible hazards by
keeping the floor dry and clean and by using anti-slip floor coverings around the machine.
Be aware of the danger from falling objects such as workpieces, tools or similar. Therefore, wear
safety shoes, especially when transporting and setting down the machine.
Pay attention to the existing danger of cutting and abrasion at the exposed parts of the sanding
belt. Never touch or handle the running sanding belt.
Be aware of the danger of snow from chips and splinters and never remove them from the dan-
ger area by hand. Use suitable aids, e.g. hand brushes.
Be aware of a possible danger of being drawn in by moving and rotating machine and tool parts.
This can cause pieces of clothing or hair to be caught. Always wear close-fitting clothing and wear a
hair net if necessary. Generally avoid jewellery, loose clothing and untied long hair.
Danger from electric shock! There are hazards when working on the electrical system.
This work must only be carried out by qualified personnel!
Danger from electric shock! It is strictly forbidden to bypass safety devices (e.g. safety switches).
Electrical equipment must be maintained and cleaned regularly.
Pay attention to the danger of crushing on workpiece guides and moving machine parts.

4.1.2 Observe the Environmental Protection Regulations
During all work with the machine, the environmental protection regulations, obligations and laws for waste
avoidance and proper recycling and/or disposal applicable at the place of use must be observed. This applies in
particular to installation, repair and maintenance work involving substances that could pollute the groundwater
(e.g. hydraulic oils and cleaning agents and liquids containing solvents). In any case, prevent them from seeping
into the ground or entering the sewage system.
Store and transport the above-mentioned hazardous substances only in suitable con-
tainers. Avoid leakage of hazardous substances by using suitable collection contain-
ers. Ensure that the above-mentioned substances are disposed of by a qualified dis-
posal company.
4.1.3 Organisational Measures
Always keep this operating manual within easy reach and at the place of use of the machine.
In addition to the operating manual, observe and instruct on generally applicable legal and other binding
regulations for accident prevention and environmental protection.
Supplement the operating manual with further instructions, including supervisory and reporting duties, to
take account of special operational features (e.g. with regard to work organisation, work processes, per-
sonnel employed).
Before starting work on the machine, the person responsible for its operation must have read the operat-
ing instructions, especially the chapter "Safety Instructions". This applies in particular to personnel who
only occasionally work on the machine.
Check that work is carried out in a safety-conscious and hazard-conscious manner and in compliance with
the operating manual.

immediately and report the fault to the responsible office/person.
Use personal protective equipment as necessary or required by regulations.
Do not make any modifications, additional attachments or conversions to the machine without the manu-
facturer's approval! This will compromise safety and invalidate the manufacturer's warranty and any liabil-
ity claim. The same also applies to the installation and adjustment of safety devices and valves and to
welding work on load-bearing part.
Spare parts must meet the technical requirements specified by the manufacturer. The exclusive use of
original spare parts ensures this. Therefore, only use original spare parts from the manufacturer.
Observe the fire alarm and firefighting possibilities. Make the location and operation of fire extinguishers
(fire class ABC) known. Do not use water!

4.2 Safety Instructions for Specific Phases of Operation
The machine must not be used if the sanding belt is defective or damaged.
Defects and damage to the machine are to be reported immediately after detection.
Sufficient lighting (at least 500 lux) around the machine must be ensured!
Any mode of operation that compromises safety is prohibited!
4.2.1 Normal Operation
Guards: Take measures to ensure that the machine can only be operated in a safe and functional condition.
Only operate the machine when all guards and safety-related devices such as sanding belt guards, emer-
gency stop system, sound insulation, extraction system and workpiece fence are present and functional.
Adjustments: Adjustment and set-up work should only be carried out by instructed personnel who are
familiar with the operation of the machine.
Workpiece: Inspect the workpiece for foreign inclusions (especially metal, screws, nails, etc.) as well as
knots, twists and other irregularities before machining.
Since the machining force of the machine acts in the direction of the belt movement, it is essential to pre-
vent the risk of workpiece kickback. Therefore, use the workpiece resp. mitre fence whenever possible
(especially with small workpieces).
When sanding, hold the workpiece firmly with both hands and press it against the fence. Only then feed
the workpiece to the sanding belt. Only process workpieces that can be held and fed securely with both
hands.
Large workpieces: Very large, long and wide workpieces that protrude beyond the table top must be addi-
tionally supported (e.g. table extension, table widening, support rollers, lift table, etc.).
Small workpieces: For small, short and narrow workpieces, always work with the workpiece fence and, if
necessary, with additional feeding aids. Sand small workpieces on the right side in the feed area of the
driven sanding drum and secure them with the fence. Do not machine workpieces < 100 х 30 х 15 mm
without a feeding aid!
Machine condition: Check the machine for externally visible damage and defects at least once per shift!
Any changes that have occurred (including those in the operating behaviour) must be reported immedi-
ately to the responsible office or person! If necessary, stop and secure the machine immediately!
Extraction: The machine must be connected to an effective extraction system. This requires an extraction
rate of at least 1800 m3/h at a speed of 25 ... 30 m/s.
Work area: An obstacle-free work area around the machine is essential for safe operation. The floor
should be level, well maintained and free from debris such as chips and cut-off workpieces.
Sanding area during operation: Always cover the unused areas of the sanding belt with the existing sand-
ing belt guards.
Sanding of angles, chamfers and veneer edges: Use the veneer sanding device for these operations. This
consists of an insertable sanding pad and two foldable veneer fences.
Lighting: The workplace must be sufficiently bright with general or local lighting.
Cleaning: After the end of the work shift, the machine must always be cleaned to remove dust and chips.
Cleaning with water is not permitted either when the machine is switched on or off.
Work interruptions: Switch off the machine even during short interruptions! Never leave the machine
running unattended!
At the end of work: Before leaving the machine, switch off the main switch and release the tension on the
sanding belt. Never leave the machine unattended in an unsecured state.

4.2.2 Special work within the Scope of Maintenance Work as well as Troubleshooting in
the Workflow
Observe maintenance and inspection activities prescribed in chapter 13!
These activities, as well as all other repair work, may only be carried out by qualified personnel!
For all work concerning operation, production adjustment, conversion or setting of the machine and its
safety-related equipment as well as maintenance and repair, observe switch-on and switch-off procedures
according to the operating manual and instructions for maintenance work!
Secure the machine against unexpected restarting during maintenance and repair work.
➔Lock the main switch with a padlock!
Always tighten screw connections that have been loosened during maintenance and repair work!
If it is necessary to dismantle safety equipment during set-up, maintenance and repair, the safety equip-
ment must be reassembled and checked immediately after completion of the maintenance and repair
work!
Ensure safe and environmentally friendly disposal of operating and auxiliary materials (e.g. oils) and re-
placement parts (e.g. electronic components). See chapter 16 “Disassembly and Scraping”.
4.2.3 Safe Work Practices
Wear personal protective equipment (safety goggles, safety shoes, hearing protection, dust mask).
Always work with all protective devices! These must be in the right places and in perfect working order.
Defective guards must be replaced immediately.
Do not start sanding until the sanding belt drive has reached full speed.
Before starting work, check that the running direction and oscillation of the sanding belt are set correctly.
Prevent workpieces (especially small ones) from being flung away in the running direction. Whenever pos-
sible stop them against the workpiece fence resp. mitre fence - against the running direction of the sand-
ing belt - and/or secure them with additional stop aids.
Only use approved sanding belts suitable for operation on an edge sanding machine.
Before installing a sanding belt, make sure that the sanding drum coatings are clean and free of dust.
Only use intact sanding belts! Replace defective or damaged sanding belts immediately.
Never clean the sanding belt when it is installed. Remove it before cleaning!
Damaged or defective machine parts and/or accessories must be replaced immediately.
Always position the worktable as close as possible to the sanding belt.

4.3 Construction-related Safety Devices
The machine construction already includes the following safety precautions:
•Guards on the sanding drums: They prevent contact with the rotating sanding belt and at the same time
serve as suction end pieces for the associated extraction unit.
•Extraction system: Collects the dust produced during operation and is connected to the suction nozzles of
the left and right sanding drum guards.
•Rear sanding belt cover: Prevents contact of the rotating sanding belt from the rear of the machine.
•Veneer fences left and right: They serve to support and guide the workpiece when sanding edges and sur-
faces. The infeed fence (right) is grooved so that veneer protrusions can be sanded flat.
•Workpiece and mitre fence: Protects the workpiece from being knocked back by placing it against the sand-
ing belt and ensures that the workpiece is safely fed to the sanding belt.
•Tilting sanding unit by 45°: Enables safe and direct sanding of angles on the table top without the need for
additional auxiliary devices and workpiece supports.
•Dynamic balancing of the sanding belt drum: Reduces vibrations during work and ensures a good surface
finish during processing.
•Sanding belt oscillation: Ensures optimum and efficient use of the sanding belt.
4.4 Electrical Safety Devices
•Emergency stop push-button: In case of danger, the centrally accessible emergency stop button immediately
puts the machine out of operation.
•Lockable main switch: The main switch can be locked with a padlock to protect the machine (e.g. during
adjustment, repair and maintenance work) against unintentional or unauthorised restarting of the machine.
•Motor standstill in less than 10 seconds: When the grinding drive is switched off via the off switch, main
switch or when the emergency stop button is pressed, a standstill of the sanding belt drive in a period of less
than 10 seconds is guaranteed.
•Undervoltage protection: In the event of a voltage interruption, the machine is brought to a standstill, where
it remains even when the voltage is restored. To put the machine back into operation, it must be switched
on again.
•Protection against electric shock: The housing of the machine and the drives are protected against electric
shock with a neutral line.
•Dust and water protection: The control cabinet is protected against dust and splash water with protection
class IP54. The two motors (main drive and oscillation) are protected against dust and water jets from any
angle with IP55 protection.
•Short-circuit protection: The machine has an overload protection for the drive unit (thermal off switch).

5.3 Emission Levels
5.3.1 Noise Information
The values given are emission levels and therefore do not necessarily represent safe workplace values. Alt-
hough there is a correlation between emission and immission levels, it cannot be reliably deduced whether ad-
ditional precautionary measures are necessary or not.
Factors that may affect the current immission level at the workplace include the duration of exposure, the na-
ture of the workspace, other noise sources, etc., e.g. the number of machines and other activities in the vicin-
ity. The permissible workplace values can also vary from country to country.
However, this information should enable the user to make a better assessment of hazard and risk.
5.3.2 Noise Emission Values
Noise Emission Explanation
Weighted level: Noise pressure at idle state
LpfA = 83 dB
Uncertainty at the К = 2 dB
Weighted level of noise power at the workplace
LwA = 101 dB
Uncertainty - К= 2 dB at error limit interval 95 %
The workplace-related noise emission values of the machine exceed 85 dB(A)!
Therefore, suitable hearing protection must be provided to the personnel!
5.4 Workplace Requirements
The effective space requirement usually depends on the dimensions of the machine and the dimensions of the
workpieces to be processed. In general, provide sufficient space around the machine and also calculate the re-
quired workplace for the operating, maintenance and auxiliary personnel as well as for the infeed and outfeed
of the workpieces.
•Choose a suitable place for the ma-
chine and consider the working areas
shown in the figure for sanding straight
surfaces and edges as well as curves.
•The chosen location must guarantee a
suitable connection to the mains sup-
ply and to the extraction system.
•Sufficient lighting (min. 500 lux) must
be ensured. The lighting must not daz-
zle and a stroboscopic effect must be
avoided.
•Make sure that the floor can support
the load of the machine.
Figure 3: Working areas
•The machine must be levelled with a machine spirit level.
•A clearance of at least 0.8 m must be ensured around the machine.
•Sufficient space must be ensured for the feeding of large and long workpieces.
