Page 6: General Instructions For 230V Machines
General Instructions for 230V Machines Good Working Practices/Safety The following suggestions will enable you to observe good working practices, keep yourself and fellow workers safe and maintain your tools and equipment in good working order. KEEP TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT OUT WARNING!! OF THE REACH OF YOUNG CHILDREN General Advice... - Page 7 General Instructions for 230V Machines UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD WARNING!! CHILDREN BE ALLOWED IN WORK AREAS Once the saw is mounted, carry out any setting operations, (mitre, tilt..?), and remove all tools used in the setting operations (if any) and place safely out of the way. If you are using long lengths of material arrange for extra support beyond the boundary of the machine.
- Page 8 General Safety Precautions for Mitre Saw DO NOT change blades with power connected. Always use the correct accessories; especially the correctly sized spanner on the arbor bolt, DO NOT risk damaging the saw by using incorrectly fitting accessories. If the saw does not have a specific device to lock the saw shaft, DO NOT jam/wedge the motor fan, it is better to wedge the saw blade with a piece of scrap timber.
- Page 9 General Safety Precautions for Mitre Saw DO NOT allow the saw to 'stall'; if unfortunate circumstances cause the machine to stall, switch off immediately, disconnect the machine and clear the 'jam' by hand. DO NOT attempt to re-start the machine until the 'jam' is cleared. If it was a severe 'jam' that required much heaving and knocking to clear, check the basic parameters of the machine before reconnecting the supply and re-commencing operations.
