GBTechnical data Motor: Voltage 230 V ~, 50/60 Hz AC Rating 50 Watt Short-term operation SO 5 min Rotating speed 11.000 rpm Weight approx. 640 g Noise typically 74 dB(A) Vibration at the handle < 2.5 m/s

General measuring uncertainty K=3 dB The noise level can exceed 85 dB(A) during work. For your safety, always wear hearing protection while working! Noise/vibration information The information on vibration and noise emission has been determined in compliance with the prescribed standardised and normative measuring methods and can be used to compare electrical devices and tools with each other. These values also allow a preliminary evaluation of the loads caused by vibration and noise emissions. Warning! Depending on the operating conditions while oper- ating the device, the actually occurring emissions could differ from the values specified above! Please bear in mind that the vibration and noise emission can deviate from the values given in these instructions, depending on the conditions of use of the tool. Poorly maintained tools, inappropriate working methods, different work pieces, too high a feed or unsuitable work pieces or materials or un- suitable bits and cutters (here: saw blade) can sig- nificantly increase the vibration load and noise emission across the entire work period. To more accurately estimate the actual vibration and noise load, also take the times into consideration where the device is switched off, or is running but is not actually in use. This can clearly reduce the vi- bration and noise load across the entire work pe- riod.

• Ensure regular and proper maintenance of your tool

• Stop operation of the tool immediately if exces- sive vibration occurs!

• Unsuitable bits and cutters can cause excessive vibration and noises. Only use suitable bits and cutters!

• Take breaks if necessary when working with the device! For use in dry environments only Protection class II device Wear safety glasses! Please do not dispose off the machine! WARNING! Please note the following: Pull out the mains plug before carrying out any work on the unit! In any case ensure that the switch is set to the "OFF" position in order to prevent the unit starting up again accidentally or unexpectedly. Operation of the MSG motorised carver Inserting or replacing the blades (Fig. 2)

Always ensure that the mains plug has been pulled out when you insert or change the blade! Please note the following when handling the blades: The blades have a sharp cutting edge: DANGER OF INJURY!

91. Loosen the coupling ring (1) with the chuck key

(2) and pull the blade (3) out to the front.

2. Push the new blade into the slot

3. Tighten up the coupling ring again.

Please ensure that the blade has been securely tightened up. This is essential for safe and proper work. This will benefit both the work piece and the tool and will considerably reduce wear. In addition, the results of the work will be considerably better. Note: Blunt blades should be replaced in good time. The blades can be resharpened with sharpening stone No. 28 578 (not part of the scope of supply). Working with the carver WARNING! Always work moving away from the body and never hold your fingers or hand (Fig. 3) in the direction of cutting. You could hurt yourself if you slipped. Work as shown in Fig. 4! WARNING! Do not switch on the unit when it is under load (axial pressure). Do not work without protective glasses.

1. Firmly secure the work piece.

2. Turn on the unit at the switch 1 (Fig. 1).

3. Hold the unit such that the ventilation slots 5

(Fig. 1) are not covered.

4. Guide the unit with light hand pressure (Fig. 4)

and avoid strong pressure. You can achieve cleaner work results if you let the unit cut through the material by itself without much pressure. Immediately switch off the machine and allow it to cool down if it has overheated. Note: Trace or draw the design motif before starting the work on the work piece and cut it out roughly. You can find technical books and templates at your bookstore. You will also find usual information about materials and working techniques in our "Manual for Creative Model Makers" with part number

Maintenance, cleaning and care Attention: Disconnect the mains plug prior to every adjust- ment, maintenance measure or repair! Note: Every device is dirtied by dust when working with wood. Cleaning is therefore essential. To ensure a long service life, however, the machine should be cleaned with a soft cloth or brush after each use. Mild soap or other suitable cleaning agent may be used in this context. Solvents or cleaning agents containing alcohol (e.g. petrol, cleaning alcohols, etc.) should be avoided, since these can attack plas- tic casings. The apertures required for cooling the motor must always be kept free of dust and dirt. Accessories For more detailed information on accessories, please request our device catalogue from the ad- dress specified on the last page in the warranty in- formation. Please note in general: Proxxon bits and cutters have been designed to work with our machines, which makes them optimal for their use. We will not assume any liability whatsoever for the safe and proper function of our devices when using third-party bits and cutters! 10Service note Please note: The mains power input may only be re- placed by our Proxxon Service Department or a qualified specialist! Disposal Please do not dispose of the device in domestic waste! The device contains valuable substances that can be recycled. If you have any questions about this, please contact your local waste management enterprise or other corresponding municipal facili- ties.
