2. SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
BEFORE USING THE MACHINE:
1. The following points need to be checked:
- do the voltage of the machine correspond to
the mains voltage (appliances for a mains volta-
ge of 230 V~ can be connected to a mains volta-
ge of 220 V~ without any problems);
- an earthed mains connection needs always to
be used;
- are the mains lead and the mains plug in a good
condition: solid, without any loose ends or
damage;
2. The machine must stand firm on a flat, solid surface.
3. Never press against the sides of the blade because
it can break.
4. Watch out while sawing wood. Nails and knots can
make the wood strike back from the machine
5. Never let the machine work unattended.
6. The teeth of the blade must point downward.
WHILE USING THE MACHINE:
1. Do not use extension cables which are too long.
2. Rests of wood may never be taken away by hand whi-
le the machine is running. First turn the machine off.
3. The sawblade is the most important piece in the
saw machine. Make sure it has no ripped of teeth,
and it is crackfree.
IMMEDIATELY SWITCH OFF THE MACHI-
NE IN CASE OF:
1. defective mains plug, mains line or damage to the
mains line;
2. defective switch;
3. smoke or bad smell caused by scorched insulation.
3. GUARANTEE PROVISIONS

defects for a period of 24 MONTHS after pur-
chase. Other claims in respect of damage, of wha-
tever nature, direct or indirect, to persons and/or
materials are excluded.
2. Always consult your Ferm dealer in the first
instance. Usually he will be able to solve the pro-
blem or repair the defect.
3. If parts are repaired or replaced within the warranty
period, this does not extend the warranty period.
4. Fair wear and tear is not covered by this warranty.
For example motors, switches or bulbs.

i.e. a RECEIPT stating the date of purchase;

as waste. To prevent the machine from being damaged
during transport its packing must be strong. Insofar as
possible the packing consists of recyclable materials
such as paper, cardboard and wood.
5. FERM'S AFTER SALES SERVICE

move the machine there is less risk of damage in the
original packing. In the case of a warranty claim the

consult your local Ferm dealer.
