This machine has been built to comply with the national and
community accident-prevention regulations in force.
Improper use and/or tampering with the safety devices will
relieve the manufacturer of all responsibility.
1.1 - Advice for the operator
- Check that the voltage indicated on the plate, normally fixed
to the machine motor, is the same as the line voltage.
- Check the efficiency of your electric supply and earthing system;
connect the power cable of the machine to the socket and the
earth lead (yellow-green in colour) to the earthing system.
- When the tool head is in rest position (raised), the toothed
disk must be stationary.
- It is forbidden to work on the machine without its shields (these
are all white, blue or grey in colour).
- Always disconnect the machine from the power socket before
changing the disk or carrying out any maintenance job, even
in the case of abnormal machine operation.
- It is forbidden to disconnect the “man present” device, known
more correctly in the EEC as the “safety switch with holddown action”.
- Always wear suitable eye protection.
- Never put your hands or arms into the cutting area while the
machine is operating.
- Do not shift the machine while it is cutting.
- Do not wear loose clothing with sleeves that are too long,
gloves that are too big, bracelets, chains or any other object
that could get caught in the machine during operation; tie back
long hair.
- Keep the area free of equipment, tools or any other object.
- Perform only one operation at a time and never have several
objects in your hands at the same time. Keep your hands as
clean as possible.
- All internal and/or internal operations, maintenance or repairs,
must be performed in a well-lit area or where there is sufficient
light from extra sources so as to avoid the risk of even slight
accidents.
The equipment is protected against splashes of water and
dust.
- Protection of the motor overload, is provided by a thermal
probe.
- In the event of a power cut, the specific start-up button must
be reset.
- The machine has been tested in conformity with point 20 of
EN 60204.
RECOMMENDATIONS AND
2
AD VICE FOR USE
2.1 - Recommendations and advice for using the
machine
- The machine has been designed to cut metal building
materials, with different shapes and profiles, used in
workshops, turner’s shops and general mechanical structural
work.
- Only one operator is needed to use the machine.
1.2 - Location of shields against accidental
contact with the tool
- Grey metal shield screwed onto the disk head.
- Self-regulating mobile blue plastic shield, fitted coaxially with
the fixed shield.
1.3 - Electrical equipment according to European
Standard"CENELEC EN 60 204-1" which assimilates, with some integrating modifications,
the publication "IEC 204-1"
- The electrical equipment ensures protection against electric
shock as a result of direct or indirect contact. The active parts
of this equipment are housed in a box to which access is limited
by screws that can only be removed with a special tool;
4
- To obtain good running-in of the machine it is advisable to
start using it at intervals of about half an hour. This operation
should be repeated two or three times, after which the machine
may be used continuously.
- Before starting each cutting operation, ensure that the part is
firmly gripped in the vice and that the end is suitably supported.
- Do not use disks of a different size from those stated in the
machine specifications.
- If the disk gets stuck in the cut, release the running button
immediately, switch off the machine, open the vice slowly,
remove the part and check that the disk or its teeth are not
broken. If they are broken, change the tool.
- Before carrying out any repairs on the machine, consult the
dealer or apply to THOMAS.

4.5 - Instructions for electrical connection
- The machine is not provided with an electric plug, so the
customer must fit a suitable one for his own w orking conditions.
- Before connecting the machine to the mains, make sure that
your electrical installation is in good conditions and that a
suitable thermo-magnetic protection is provided.

1) Cast iron or ferrous materials, composed of metal alone,
are secondary raw materials, so they may be taken to an
iron foundry for re-smelting after having removed the contents
(classified in point 3);
2) electrical components, including the cable and electronic material (magnetic cards, etc.), fall within the category of material
classified as being assimilable to urban waste according
to the laws of the European community, so they may be set
aside for collection by the public waste disposal service;
3) old mineral and synthetic and/or mixed oils, emulsified oils
and greases are special refuse, so they must be collected,
transported and subsequently disposed of by the old oil
disposal service.
NOTE: since standards and legislation concerning refuse in
general is in a state of continuous evolution and therefore
subject to changes and variations, the user must keep
informed of the regulations in force at the time of
disposing of the machine tool, as these may differ from
those described above, which are to be considered as
a general guide line.
