Intended use
Tools:
– The chosen saw blade must be suitable both for
the specific work cycle (e.g. longitudinal cutting
or crosscutting) and for the specific material.
– Only circular blades which are solid chrome
vanadium (CV) or tungsten carbide tipped
(TCT) and have a minimum and maximum
diameter of 250 mm and 400 mm as well as a
maximum width of 15 mm are allowed for the
main saw and milling/grooving cutter. The
middle table strip and the cushioning disc must
be removed when using a milling/grooving
cutter.

are allowed for the scoring saw.
– Saw blades made of high-alloy high-speed
steel (HSS) are not allowed to be used.
– Wobble units are not allowed to be used.
Site of installation/use:
– The machine is not suitable for use outdoors, or
in rooms that are subject to moisture or the risk
of explosions.
– The intended use of the machine involves
connection to a suitably dimensioned extraction
system.
– Intended use also involves compliance with
ALTENDORF's
maintenance and repair conditions and the
safety information contained in the operating
instructions.
– The WA80 sliding table saw may only be used,
set up and maintained by persons who are
familiar with the machine and aware of the
dangers.

as well as any other generally recognised
technical safety and industrial medicine rules
must be observed.
