Fig. 7-4: Operating panel
Before switching on the machine ensure that all the
necessary protective devices for the relevant oper-
ation are fitted and operational. Also check that the
saw blades are correctly tensioned and that there is
no workpiece or other objects in their vicinity.
Check that the correct speed for the saw blade and
for the operation to be performed has been prese-
lected. Check by switching on briefly that the circu-
lar saw blade is rotating in the right direction.
Ensure that when you switch the machine on you
are simultaneously switching the extraction system
on.
The main saw is started by pressing the white but-
ton I located in the panel and identified by the main
saw symbol. The machine runs up to its operating
speed (with start current reduction) automatically.
The scorer saw can only be started after the main
saw has reached its operating speed (after around
5 seconds.), by pressing the white button I which is
also located in the panel and identified by the sym-
bol for the scorer saw. After the scorer saw is
switched on this button lights.

To switch off normally the black button labeled „0"
next to the on buttons is pressed. When the off but-
ton for the main saw is pressed both saw drives are
switched off, the scorer saw can however also be
switched off on its own with the corresponding but-
ton.
The machine can also be switched off with the
EMERGENCY OFF-buttons on both sides of the
sliding table. This facility for switching off the ma-
chine should however only be used in emergencies
