Restarting protection
NOTE
► The machine stops automatically if the magnetic clamp is
switched o or in the event of a power failure.
In order to prevent unexpected starting of the machine when the
magnetic clamp is switched on again or when the power supply
returns after a power failure ("restarting protection"), the machine
must be switched on at the ON/OFF switch again.
Magnet indicator
The magnet indicator provides a visual control of the magnet's
clamping force.
■ Magnet indicator is lit GREEN:
The magnet's clamping force satises the minimum require-
ments. Machining can be carried out.
■ Magnet indicator is lit RED:
Insucient magnet clamping force. Machining must not be
carried out with the machine. This can be the case in the event
of insucient material thickness, uneven surface or due to
paint, scale or zinc coatings.
Thermal overload protection
The machine is additionally equipped with thermal overload pro-
tection. If the machine becomes too hot, it switches o automati-
cally.
Carry out the following steps before continuing to work with the
machine:
Remove any blockages that may have occurred.
Allow the machine to run at no-load speed
for approx. 2 minutes.
The machine is then ready for operation again.
