The metal belt saw must only be installed and operated in a dry and ventilated place. If the metal belt saw is used in any way other than described above, modified without authoriza- Operations tion of Optimum Maschinen Germany GmbH, then the metal belt saw is being used improperly. not in accord- ance with...
INFORMATION The metal band saw with frequency converter is built according to the standard EN61800 class WARNING! Class C3 (machine tools) is not intended for use in residential or mixed areas where the power supply is provided by a low-voltage public power supply system. In these areas it may possibly be difficult to guarantee electromagnetic compatibility due to lead bound as well as emitted interferences.
Long workpieces must be supported. Use a suitable support. Possible dangers caused by the metal band saw. The construction and design of the metal band saw are state-of-the-art. Nevertheless, there is a residual risk as the metal belt saw operates with ...
Operator The operator is instructed by the operating company about the assigned tasks and possible risks in case of improper behaviour. Any tasks performed beyond operation in standard mode may only be performed by an operator if they are described in these instructions and if the oper- ator has been specifically trained to perform them by the operating company.
Electric components or operating materials: Must only be worked on by a qualified electri- cian or person working under the instructions and supervision of a qualified electrician. Before starting work on electrical parts or operating agents, following measures are to be performed in the following order: - disconnect all poles - secure against restarting...
WARNING! Dangerous voltage even if the main switch is switched off. The areas marked by the pictogram might contain live parts, even if the main switch is switched off. 1.8.2 Emergency stop switch CAUTION! Only press the emergency stop button in a genuine emergency. You should not use the emergency-stop button to stop the machine during normal operation.

Clean your personal protective equipment after each use, regularly once a week. Personal protective equipment for special works Protect your face and your eyes: Wear a safety helmet with facial protection when performing work where your face and eyes are exposed to hazards. Wear protective gloves when handling pieces with sharp edges.
Check that they are working properly! 1.13 Accident report Inform your supervisors and Optimum Maschinen Germany GmbH immediately in the event of accidents, possible sources of danger and any actions which almost led to an accident (near misses). There are many possible causes for "near misses".
A second person must be present during work on live components to disconnect the power in the event of an emergency. Disconnect the metal belt saw immediately if there is a malfunction in the power supply ! Comply with the required inspection intervals in accordance with the factory safety directive, operating equipment inspection DGUV, formerly BVG.

3.6.1 Regulated drives in connection with residual current devices Speed-controlled drives are one of the standard equipment in machine and plant construction and perform various tasks. Compared to a simple motor, the electronic rectifiers or converters require some special features for the necessary safety measures for electrical safety. Depend- ing on the application, the use of a fault current protection device, differential current monitor- ing or insulation monitoring can make more sense.
To avoid an operating fault, you need an AC/DC-sensitive ELCB. Be absolutely sure which leakage current security is necessary for dangerous body currents, as regulated in DIN VDE 0100 part 410, at your mains connection. 3.6.4 When the ELCB triggers ...
Operation Safety Use the metal belt saw only under the following conditions: The metal belt saw is in proper working order. The metal belt saw is used as prescribed.
