Possible Drawbacks Of Maksiwa Panel Saw<\/strong><\/h4>\n

These points for reconsideration may vary in importance among users. Depending on your priorities, here are some things you should also know before purchasing this machinery:<\/p>\n

Assembly \u2013 Qualified and trained personnel are to conduct the electrical installations of the equipment. Meanwhile, the estimated completion of assembly is six to seven hours.
\nLimitations \u2013 Maksiwa recommends using their panel saw to cut medium-density fiberboards (MDFs). It\u2019s not recommended for use on non-wood-based or other non-ferrous materials.
\nMaksiwa doesn\u2019t recommend multi-piece cutting. However, they teach how to safely conduct this job by securing each workpiece onto the table or guide.
\nNoise level \u2013 76.5 decibels when turned on and up to 110 decibels with the exhaust system on. Furthermore, the location of the equipment and the materials used may affect the noise level.
\nMaintenance \u2013 Since this equipment includes a dust collection port, this component needs routine cleaning after every work cycle. A vacuum cleaner and air compressor may be necessary for proper upkeep, as well as weekly lubrication of the moving parts of the machine. Also, at least every three months, it\u2019ll require the use of an electrical cleaner.
\nAdditional equipment \u2013 Aside from the cleaning equipment, the manufacturer also recommends the use of a surge protection circuit breaker to prevent short circuits.<\/p>\n

Warranty<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Maksiwa offers a two-year manufacturer\u2019s warranty on the parts and workmanship of its BMS.3200.IR saw panel. The warranty excludes the motors, belts, electrical equipment, and other third-party manufacturing equipment. Defects on such are subject to warranties offered by the respective manufacturers. The warranty also excludes technical visits for adjustments and cleaning of the machine due to normal wear.<\/p>\n

The machine owner is responsible for workplace adaptations of the machine. The warranty will not cover any carelessness, misuse, or mistreatment of the equipment leading to malfunction.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s best to instruct operators on how to properly use such equipment and heed construction safety<\/a> advice. Lack of proper maintenance, damage by flooding, outages, or unsuitable environment, removal of safety features, and any alteration to the equipment will further void the warranty.<\/p>\n
