Specific safety information for Panel Cutter TPC 165
Risk of injury due to improper handling!
Ø Make sure the machine is always in a stable position when
operating it in order to absorb any possible kickback forces.
Ø Always operate the machine away from your body.
Do not carry out overhead work on the machine.
Ø
Ø The machine may only be operated with a protective cover.
Ø If the saw falls down, check that the saw chain and saw
blade move freely afterwards. The protective cover and
other parts must not be touched.
Ø Before putting the machine down, ensure that the blade is
folded in.
Ø If the saw should get stuck in the material, release the
switch and do not move the saw in the material until the
saw chain stops. When restarting, center the saw blade in
the kerf and make sure that the teeth of the saw chain are
no longer stuck.
Ø Blades of the predecessor models (e. g. TP 150-0 and
TPC 150-2) as well as damaged blades must not be used.
Ø Follow the instructions for lubrication, chain tensioning and
changing accessories. An improperly tensioned or lubricated
chain can break.
Keep the handles clean and free of oil and grease. Greasy,
Ø
oily handles are slippery and will lead to loss of control.
Risk of injury through defective brake!
Check the brake before every use. The brake must stop
Ø
movement of the chain within 2 s. If there is a defect, inform
TRUMPF Service.
Do not clamp the switch for the saw chain and swivel lever
Ø
for the blade.
Ø If the saw falls down, check the brake for perfect operation
afterwards.
