Я был на презентации в Ростове, в компании Акрил. Потратил 1700р. на дизель чтобы удовлетворить любопытство. Машинка конечно… песня, как всё что производит эта компания. Регулировки все вот они, никуда лезть не надо, всё очен просто и понятно. Действительно показывает сколько осталось метров поклеить. Менеджеры подготовились основательно, смотрю кусочки лдсп, кромка разная и после небольшого рассказа о машинке сразу предлагает мне поклеить. Зарядил кромку 2ку и как не странно у меня получилось её приклеить вполне прилично,  хотя я кроме утюга ничем раньше не клеил. Я спрашиваю — а 0.4 кромку будет клеить, он говорит — а это мы сейчас с вами и попробуем. Вставляет кромку, а далее начинаются непонятки. Он отрезает кусочек такой-же кромки около 15см. и тоже туда её пихает, на мой вопрос — зачем, он говорит — для тонкой кромки тут должна быть специальная прижимная пластина, но пока её нет. Я спрашиваю — а где она, он говорит — она в пути, я спрашиваю — а почему вы её сразу не привезли, он говорит — потому что это дэмо образец. Ну ладно начали клеить, сначала он клеит, приклеил, я беру заготовку и внимательно рассматриваю, клей с одной стороны выступил а с другой нет. Предлагает мне попробовать, клею, смотрю клей с обоих сторон выступил, но середина сморщилась. Мы колдовали с ней часа два, потом мне подарили красивую книжку про эту машинку и я уехал. Сейчас всего так не вспомню, что там ещё было, если что спрашивайте.

Safety instructions
General safety instructions
WARNING!
 
Read all safety warnings, in-
structions,  illustrations  and  specifications
provided with this power tool. 
Failure to follow all
instructions  listed  below  may  result  in  electric
shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future ref-
erence.
The  term  “power  tool”  in  the  warnings  refers  to
your  mains-operated  (corded)  power  tool  or  bat-
tery-operated (cordless) power tool.
1 WORK AREA SAFETY
a.
Keep work area clean and well lit. 
Cluttered and
dark areas invite accidents.
b.
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo-
spheres, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases or dust. 
Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c.
Keep children and bystanders away while oper-
ating a power tool. 
Distractions can cause you to
lose control.
2 ELECTRICAL SAFETY
a.
Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never
modify  the  plug  in  any  way.  Do  not  use  any
adapter  plugs  with  earthed  (grounded)  power
tools. 
Unmodified  plugs  and  matching  outlets
will reduce risk of electric shock.
b.
Avoid  body  contact  with  earthed  or  grounded
surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. 
There is an increased risk of elec-
tric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet condi-
tions. 
Water  entering  a  power  tool  will  increase
the risk of electric shock.
d.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. 
Damaged  or  entangled  cords  in-
crease the risk of electric shock.
e.
When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. 
Use of
a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.
f.
If operating a power tool in a damp location is
unavoidable,  use  a  residual  current  device
(RCD) protected supply. 
Use of an RCD reduces
the risk of electric shock.
3 PERSONAL SAFETY
a.
Stay  alert,  watch  what  you  are  doing  and  use
common sense when operating a power tool. Do
not use a power tool while you are tired or under
the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. 
A
moment  of  inattention  while  operating  power
tools may result in serious personal injury.
b.
Use  personal  protective  equipment.  Always
wear eye protection. 
Protective equipment such
as dust mask, non skid safety shoes, hard hat, or
hearing  protection  used  for  appropriate  condi-
tions will reduce personal injuries.
c.
Prevent  unintentional  starting.  Ensure  the
switch is in the off-position before connecting to
power source and/or battery pack, picking up or
carrying the tool. 
Carrying power tools with your
finger  on  the  switch  or  energising  power  tools
that have the switch on invites accidents.
d.
Remove  any  adjusting  key  or  wrench  before
turning the power tool on. 
A wrench or a key left
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may
result in personal injury.
e.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and bal-
ance at all times. 
This enables better control of
the power tool in unexpected situations.
f.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair,  clothing and gloves

away from moving parts. 
Loose clothes,  jewel-
lery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g.
If  devices  are  provided  for  the  connection  of
dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure
these are connected and properly used. 
Use of
dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
h.
Do not let familiarity gained from freuquent use
of tools allow you to become complacent and ig-
nore,  tool  safety  principles. 
A  careless  action
can cause severe injury within a fraction of a sec-
ond.
4 POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
a.
Do  not  force  the  power  tool.  Use  the  correct
power  tool  for  your  application. 
The  correct
power tool will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.
b.
Do not use the power tool if the switch does not
turn it on and off. 
Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must
be repaired.
c.
Disconnect the plug from the power source and/
or  battery  pack  from  the  power  tool  before
making any adjustments, changing accessories,
or  storing  power  tools. 
Such  preventive  safety
measures reduce the  risk  of starting the  power
tool accidentally.
d.
Store idle power tools out of the reach of chil-
dren and do not allow persons unfamiliar with
the power tool or these instructions to operate
the power tool. 
Power tools are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
e.
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment
or  binding  of  moving parts,  breakage of  parts
and any other condition that may affect the pow-
er tool‘s operation. If damaged, have the power
tool  repaired  before  use. 
Many  accidents  are
caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f.
Keep  cutting  tools  sharp  and  clean. 
Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g.
Use  the  power  tool,  accessories  and  tool  bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions tak-
ing into account the working conditions and the
work to be performed. 
Use of the power tool for
operations  different  from  those  intended  could
result in a hazardous situation.
h.
Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and
grease. 
Slippery  handles  do  not  allow  for  safe
handling  and  control  of  the  tool  in  unexpected
situations.
5 SERVICE
a.
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified re-
pair  person  using  only  identical  replacement
parts. 
This will ensure that the safety of the pow-
er tool is maintained.
