Intended use
The tool is intended for performing lengthways and cross-
ways straight cuts and miter cuts with angles to 45° in
wood while in firm contact with the workpiece.
Power supply
The tool should be connected only to a power supply of
the same voltage as indicated on the nameplate, and can
only be operated on single-phase AC supply. They are
double-insulated in accordance with European Standard
and can, therefore, also be used from sockets without
earth wire.
For public low-voltage distribution systems of
between 220 V and 250 V
Switching operations of electric apparatus cause voltage
fluctuations. The operation of this device under unfavour-
able mains conditions can have adverse effects to the
operation of other equipment. With a mains impedance
equal or less than 0.35 Ohms it can be presumed that
there will be no negative effects.
The mains socket used for this device must be protected
with a fuse or protective circuit breaker having slow trip-
ping characteristics.
Safety hints
For your own safety, please refer to the enclosed safety
instructions.

Keep Guards In Place and In Working Order.
Never wedge or tie lower guard open. Check
operation of lower guard before each use. Don't
use if lower guard does not close briskly over
saw blade.
CAUTION: If saw is dropped, lower guard may be
bent, restricting full return.
Do not use blades which are deformed or
cracked.
Do not use blades of high speed steel.
Do not stop the blades by lateral pressure on the
saw blade.
Keep Blades Clean and Sharp.
Sharp blades minimize stalling and kickback.
DANGER:
Keep Hands Away From Cutting Area.
Keep hands away from blades. Don't reach
underneath work while blade is rotating. Don't
attempt to remove cut material when blade is
moving.
CAUTION: Blades coast after turn off.
Support Large Panels. (Fig. 1 & 2)
Large panels must be supported as shown in
Fig. 1 to minimize the risk of blade pinching and
kickback.
When cutting operation requires the resting of
the saw on the workpiece, the saw shall be
rested on the larger portion and the smaller
piece cut off.
Use Rip Fence.
Always use a fence or straight edge guide when
ripping.
Kickback occurs when the saw stalls rapidly and
is driven back towards the operator. Release
switch immediately if blade binds or saw stalls.
Keep blades sharp. Support large panels as
shown in Fig. 1.
Use fence or straight edge guide when ripping.
Don't force tool. Stay alert – exercise control.
Don't remove saw from work during a cut while
the blade is moving.
NEVER place your hand or fingers behind the
saw. If kickback occurs, the saw could easily
jump backwards over your hand, possibly caus-
ing severe injury.
