General Instruction for 240V 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.
Mains Powered Tools
Primary Precautions
These machines are supplied with a moulded 13 Amp. plug and 3 core power cable. Before
using the machine inspect the cable and the plug to make sure that neither are damaged. If any
damage is visible have the tool inspected/repaired by a suitably qualified person. If it is
necessary to replace the plug, it is preferable to use an ‘unbreakable’ type that will resist
damage on site. Only use a 13 amp plug, and make sure the cable clamp is tightened securely.
Fuse at 13 amp. If extension leads are to be used, carry out the same safety checks on them,
and ensure that they are correctly rated to safely supply the current that is required for your
machine.
Work Place/Environment
Make sure when the machine is placed that it sits firmly on a stand/bench, that it does not rock,
that is sufficiently clear of adjacent obstacles so that machining operations will not be
impeded. Check you have adequate clearance both in front of, and behind the machine when
machining long timber. If you are liable to be processing unwieldy or awkward work pieces, it is
suggested that you consider fastening the machine down to the stand/bench, and perhaps the
purchase of outfeed roller stands.
The machine is not designed for sub-aqua operation, do not use when or where it is liable to
get wet. If the machine is set up in the open, and it starts to rain, cover it up or move it into the
dry. If machine has got wet; dry it off as soon as possible, with a cloth or paper towel. Do not
use 240va.c. powered machines anywhere within a site area that is flooded or puddled, and do
not trail extension cables across wet areas. Keep the machine clean; it will enable you to more
easily see any damage that may have occurred. Clean the machine with a damp soapy cloth if
needs be, do not use any solvents or cleaners, as these may cause damage to any plastic parts
or to the electrical components.
