Check power supply.
Take the machine to the customer service workshop.
Fit chip extraction system.
Check fuse / overload protection
Have the motor or switch checked by a qualified
electrician.
Mount the chip extractor so that the microswitch is

Due to the built-in undervoltage protection, the machine
does not restart by itself and must be switched on again
when the voltage is restored.
Change or sharpen blades.
Switch back on again after motor cool-down time.
Mount the chip suction hood or table locking mechanism
in such a way that the micro switch is started.
Reduce chip take-off.
Reduce feed speed.
Reduce the cutting depth and machine the workpiece in
multiple operations.
Reduce chip take-off.
Reduce feed speed.
Replace blades.
