OPERATION
WARNING
O Before starting the operation of the
machine each time, be sure to check that
there are no people and obstacles around
the machine.
O Never take your eyes off the machine or
lean on the machine during operation. Be
ready for a situation that demands
immediate attention to prevent an
accident.
O Never touch the running saw blade or chip
conveyor. It is dangerous if your hands
or clothing are caught in the running saw
blade or chip conveyor.
O Never try to adjust the wire brush on the
saw blade or remove chips when the saw
blade is running. It is dangerous if your
hands or clothing are caught in the
running saw blade.
O Be sure to check that the flow rate of the
cutting fluid is adjusted to a proper
degree. If the cutting fluid is not supplied
in sufficient amounts, the life of the saw
blade may be markedly shortened. If the
cutting operation is continued in this
condition, a fire may occur.
