SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS
The flat saw is designed to provide safe and
reliable service in operating conditions
corresponding with the instructions, but it
can present dangers for the user and risks
of damage, consequently regular on site
inspection is necessary to ensure:
• Perfect technical condition (use for
the purpose for which it is intended
and taking into account any risks, and
correction of any malfunction
detrimental to safety).
• Use a diamond disk for cutting with
water (sawing new or old concrete,
tarmac or asphalt). No other type of
disk is allowed (abrasive, saw, etc...).
• Competent staff (qualifications, age,
training) who have read and
understood the manual in detail
before starting work: any electrical,
mechanical or other problem should
be investigated by a qualified
maintenance engineer (electrician,
maintenance manager, approved
dealer, etc . . .).
• That the warnings and instructions
marked on the machine are followed
(adequate personal protection,
correct use, general safety
instructions, etc).
• That no modification, transformation
or addition is detrimental to safety
and that it is carried out without prior
authorization from the manufacturer.
• Respect of the maintenance intervals
and periodical checks recommended.
• That only genuine spare parts are
used for repairs.
