Usage
WARNING!
Improper use of the circular metal saw
•will endanger personnel,
•will endanger the machine and other material property of the operator,
•may affect proper operation of the machine.
The circular metal saw is designed and manufactured to be used in environments where there is
no potential danger of explosion.
The circular metal saw is designed and manufactured to saw cold metals, cast materials and
other plastic materials that are not harmful to health and do not generate dust.
The circular metal saw must not be used on wood.
The pieces to be cut need to be of a shape that will allow them to be securely attached in the
work holder vice and ensure that the piece does not come loose when it is being sawed.
Improper
use
The circular metal saw must only be installed and operated in a dry and well-ventilated place.
If the circular metal saw is used in any way other than as described above, modified without the
authorisation of Optimum Maschinen GmbH or operated with different process data, then it is
being used improperly.
We do not take liability for damage caused by improper use.
We would like to stress that any modifications to the construction, or technical or technological
modifications that have not been authorised by Optimum Maschinen GmbH will also render the
guarantee null and void.
It is also part of proper use that
•the maximum values of the circular metal saw are complied with,
•the operating manual is observed,
•inspection and maintenance instructions are observed.
“Technical data“ on page 14
In order to achieve the required cutting performance and the angular tolerance the correct
choice of the saw blade, the cutting speed and the coolant are decisive.
WARNING!
Very serious injury.
It is forbidden to make any modifications or alterations to the operating values of the circular metal saw! These could en danger personnel and cause damage to the machine.
1.3Possible dangers caused by the circular metal saw
The circular metal saw is state-of-the-art, but there is a residual risk, as the circular metal saw is
working with
•electrical voltage and currents
•a running circular metal saw blade.
We have used construction resources an d safety techniques to minim ise the health risk to per-
sonnel resulting from these hazards.
If the circular metal saw is used and maintained by staff who are not duly qualified, there may be
a risk resulting from incorrect operation or unsuitable maintenance.
Page 6
INFORMATION
All staff involved in assembly, commissioning, operation and maintenance must
•be duly qualified,
•follow this operating manual.
In the event of improper use
•there may be a risk to the staff,
•there may be a risk to the circular metal saw and other material property,
•the proper operation of the circular metal saw may be affected.
Disconnect the circular metal saw whenever cleaning or maintenance work is being carried out.
WARNING!
THE CIRCULAR METAL SAW MAY ONLY BE USED WITH THE SAFETY DEVICES ACTIVATED.
Disconnect the circular metal saw whenever you detect a failure in the safety devices or
when they are not fitted!
All additional installations carried out by the operator must incorporate the pre s crib e d
safety devices.
Being the machine operator, this will be your responsibility!

-Ensure that the machine cannot be turned on again
-Check that there is no voltage
1.5User positions
The user must stand in front of the circular metal saw.
INFORMATION
The mains plug of the circular metal saw must be freely accessible.
1.6Safety devices
Use the circular metal saw only with properly functioning safety devices.
Stop the circular metal saw immediately if there is a failure in the safety device or if it is not func-
tioning for any reason.
It is your responsibility!
If a safety device has been activated or has failed, the circular metal saw must only be used
when
•the cause of the failure has been removed,
•it has been verified that there is no resulting danger for the staff or objects.
WARNING!
If you bypass, remove or override a safety device in any other way, you are endangering
yourself and other staff working with the circu lar metal saw. The possible consequences
are:
•damage as a result of components or parts of components flying off at high speed,
•contact with rotating parts,
