SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Switch lock and ON/OFF valve for the water

The switch lock is designed to prevent accidental operation of the switch. The ON/OFF valve for the water supply is also controlled with the switch lock.

When the switch lock (A) is pressed in this opens the water valve and releases the switch (B).

As long as the switch is pressed in the switch lock remains pressed in and the water valve open.

When you release your grip on the handle this resets both the switch and the switch lock. This takes place via two independent return spring systems. This position causes the machine to stop and the switch to be locked.

The water valve returns to the stop position when the handle is released.

Blade guard

This guard is fitted above the blade and is designed to prevent parts of the blade or cutting fragments from being thrown towards the user.
