2.Revise any lack of guards or any other
component of the machine. Never use a
m a c h i n e t h a t i s n o t c o m p l e t e , n o t i n a
p e r f e c t c o n d i t i o n a n d n o t c o r r e c t l y

manipulated, lacks pieces or is in a bad
condition, disconnect it, remove it from the
working area, do not use it and send it to the
technical service.
3.Never put your hands or any other part of the
body nor garment upon or below the cutting
area of the disk or within the cutting path of
the disk.
4.Fastening the workpiece to be cut shall not be
c a r r i e d o u t m a n u a l l y b u t w i t h t h e
a s s i s t a n c e o f p u s h e r s , w e d g e r s a n d
clamps warranting a firm fastening of the

circumstances (appearance of nods, etc.).
B y p u t t i n g t h i s p r e v e n t i v e m e a s u r e i n t o
practice the risk of contact with the disks
during the development of the operation is
practically excluded as it allows hands to
remain distanced from the hazardous area.
5.Always disconnect the machine when leaving it
alone.
6.The presence of one or more assistants will be
r e q u i r e d f o r c u t t i n g w o r k p i e c e s b e i n g
longer than 1.5 m.
1.2 Preventing fortuitous contacts with the disk
rotating without load in the resting position
1.Independently from that the disk, when resting,
stays protected by the safety guards as
installed, it is categorically advised against
using the locking switch so as to guarantee
that disk does not rotate without load in the
resting position thereof.
1.3 Preventing abrupt falls of the disk due to
breakage of the spring
1.By means of a regular maintenance the machine
will always be in a perfect condition.
2.Check the area and the machine on each working
d a y a n d r o u t i n e l y t e s t a l l m o v e m e n t s
visually with the machine disconnected.
3.Check springs and the bearings thereof on
e a c h w o r k i n g , a n d h a v e t h e m c h e c k e d
periodically by qualified personnel.
4.Make sure that the head perfectly ascends to its
upper position by the sole action of springs.
5.Check the upper locking system on each working
day by raising the head up to abutment and
checking locking and unlocking by means

6.Never expose your hands or any other part of
your body to the cutting path.
7.Never allow the head that holds the disk to remain
i n a n u n d e t e r m i n e d p o s i t i o n u n l e s s t h e
o p e r a t o r i s m a n d a t o r i l y g r a s p i n g t h e
control grip 3.
8.For any break between cuttings, however short it
may be, always use the automatic lock of
the head in the upper position by raising the
head to the upper stop.
9.Each time that the machine remains at rest, leave
it in the lower resting position by placing the
h e a d a t 9 0 º v e r t i c a l a n d 0 º h o r i z o n t a l ,
protecting by means of the stationary guard
49 and finally locking it by lowering the
head and pushing button 32.
2. Preventing projections of the cut
workpiece
1.So as to carry out the cutting of workpieces using
a stopper, this latter must be foldable or
movable. Once the operator has selected
t h e c u t t i n g r a n g e a n d f i r m l y f i x e d t h e
workpiece to the table, he/she will remove
the stopper so as to prevent the workpiece
as cut from wedging between the stopper
and the disk.
16.Dust extraction
All models are prepared for mounting equipment
(not included) for the aspiration of particles
generated during the cutting operation.
The extraction equipment shall be coupled to the
particle outlet nozzle 25.
