2.8 General safety notes
This machine is equipped with various safety devices
designed to protect both the operator and the machine.
However, the devices cannot cover all safety aspects
and absolve the operator of his responsibilities. Before
operating the machine, you must have read and fully
understood this chapter. The operator must also
consider other aspects of the hazard relating to
environmental conditions and the material.
Please observe the following points:
Before connecting the machine to the mains power
supply, make sure that all the safety devices are placed
in their active positions and are functioning correctly.
Should you ever need to remove the protective covers,
always switch off the machine and disconnect the plug
beforehand.

environment and make sure that the working
environment is clean. Operating the machine in
explosive and highly flammable locations is
prohibited.
- Provide for sufficient illumination.
- Protect the table router from environmental
influences and do not leave exposed to direct
sunlight or rain.
- Keep children and persons who are not familiar with
the table router away from your working
environment.

Protect the cable against heat, oil and sharp edges.
- Operating the machine to process wood, wood-
based materials and plastics in closed spaces is
only permitted together with a suitable extraction
system.
- When processing long workpieces, use an additional
support (table, trestles, etc.) to prevent the machine
from tipping over.
- Always press the workpiece firmly against
the work surface and fence to prevent the workpiece
from vibrating or twisting.
