Possible Dangers Caused By The Circular Metal Saw - Palmgren CS 250 Operating Manual

Safety
The circular metal saw is designed and manufactured to saw cold metals, cast materials and
other plastic materials that are not harmful to health and do not generate dust.
The circular metal saw must not be used on wood.
The pieces to be cut need to be of a shape that will allow them to be securely attached in the
work holder vice and ensure that the piece does not come loose when it is being sawed.
The circular metal saw must only be installed and operated in a dry and well-ventilated place.
Improper If the circular metal saw is used in any way other than as described above, modified without the
use authorisation of Colovos Company or operated with different process data, then it is being used
improperly.
We do not take liability for damage caused by improper use.
We would like to stress that any modifications to the construction, or technical or technological
modifications that have not been authorised by Colovos Company will also render the guarantee
null and void.
It is also part of proper use that
• the maximum values of the circular metal saw are complied with,
• the operating manual is observed,
• inspection and maintenance instructions are observed.
"Technical data" on page 16
In order to achieve the required cutting performance and the angular tolerance the correct
choice of the saw blade, the cutting speed and the coolant are decisive.
WARNING!
Very serious injury.
It is forbidden to make any modifications or alterations to the operating values of the cir-
cular metal saw! These could endanger personnel and cause damage to the machine.

Possible dangers caused by the circular metal saw

The circular metal saw is state-of-the-art, but there is a residual risk, as the circular metal saw is
working with
• electrical voltage and currents
• a running circular metal saw blade.
We have used construction resources and safety techniques to minimise the health risk to per-
sonnel resulting from these hazards.
If the circular metal saw is used and maintained by staff who are not duly qualified, there may be
a risk resulting from incorrect operation or unsuitable maintenance.
INFORMATION
All staff involved in assembly, commissioning, operation and maintenance must
• be duly qualified,
• follow this operating manual.
In the event of improper use
• there may be a risk to the staff,
• there may be a risk to the circular metal saw and other material property,
• the proper operation of the circular metal saw may be affected.
Disconnect the circular metal saw whenever cleaning or maintenance work is being carried out.
