n After checking if the rotor (3) is turning freely (
‘Checking if the rotor is turning freely’ on page 34), the required hex­agon socket screw key must be removed immediately.
n The switch (19) on the back is not a main switch but rather a control
switch. Therefore the mains plug (20) must be plugged out in order to safely disconnect the supply voltage.
n Switch the control switch (19) on the back of the Universal Cutting
Mill to 0, if the device is to be idle for a longer period of time (e.g. overnight).

Direction of rotation detection

2.8.4 Overload protection

In the case of power failure during operation or after switching off with the control switch (19), the closing lid (6) is locked. The lock (11) is opened when power returns. However, for safety reasons the cutting mill does not restart.
A unit for detection of the direction of rotation is installed in devices with a three-phase motor:
If the STOP button (35) lights up red after connecting to a three-phase power system and switching the control switch (19) to AUTO, the direc­tion of rotation must be corrected. To do this, two phases in the mains
Ä
plug must be reversed.
n The motor protection switch switches off if overload occurs.
