REGULAR MAINTENANCE
The regular maintenance decribed above and in the para-
graph below can be carried out by unskilled personnel.
• Do not oil the plunge cut saw, cause cutting must be
carried out in dry conditions; all rotating parts are
self-lubricating.
• During maintenance, wear protective gear if possible
(accident-prevention goggles and gloves).
• Remove cuttings when necessary both from the cutting
area, work surfaces and support bases.
Use of an aspirator or brush is recommended.
ATTENTION: Do not use compressed air jets!
• Regularly check blade conditions: if difficulties should
arise during cutting, have it sharpened by skilled per-
sonnel or replace it if necessary.
•
ASSISTENCE
When in need of skilled personnel for special main-
tenance, or for repairs, both during and following the

assistance or directly to the manufacturer if there is no
authorized centre in your area.
DISPOSAL OF THE MACHINE.
Once its operating activity is finished, the disposal of the
machine must take place through a normal collection and
disposal Center for industrial waste.
Help
Have the machine checked by skilled person-
nel. Do not try to repair the machine yourselves
as it may be dangerous. Check the fuses and
replace them if necessary.
Ask for the Electricity Board to check the
voltage available. Have the machine motor
checked by skilled personnel. Have the capaci-
tor replaced by skilled personnel.
Have the motor checked by skilled personnel.
Do not use other utilities or motors on the cir-
cuit to which the plunge cut saw is connected.
Prevent overloading the motor when cutting;
remove dust from the motor to ensure an opti-
mum cooling of the motor
Re-sharpen the saw blade or use an appropri-
ate saw blade
Use the correct saw blade
