Help
Have the machine checked by skilled person-

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.

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-adjust the end stop of the saw unit
Re-sharpen the saw blade or use an appropri-
ate saw blade
Use the correct saw blade
