ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES
FOR TOOL
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
1. Wear eye protection.
2. Don't use the tool in presence of flammable liq-
uids or gases.
3. NEVER use the tool with an abrasive cut-off wheel
installed.
4. Check the blade carefully for cracks or damage
before operation. Replace cracked or damaged
blade immediately.
5. Use only saw blades recommended by the manu-
facturer and which conform to EN847-1, and
observe that the riving knife must not be thicker
than the width of the cut by the saw blade and not
thinner than the body of the blade.
6. Always use accessories recommended in this
manual. Use of improper accessories such as
abrasive cut-off wheels may cause an injury.
7. Select the correct saw blade for the material to be
cut.
8. Do not use saw blades manufactured from high
speed steel.
9. To reduce the emitted noise, always be sure that
the blade is sharp and clean.
10. Use correctly sharpened saw blades. Observe the
maximum speed marked on the saw blade.
11. Clean the spindle, flanges (especially the install-
ing surface) and hex nut before installing the
blade. Poor installation may cause vibration/wob-
bling or slippage of the blade.
12. Use saw-blade guard and riving knife for every
operation for which it can be used, including all
through sawing operations. Always install the
blade guard following the instructions out-lined in
this manual. Through sawing operations are those
in which the blade cuts completely through the
workpiece as in ripping or cross cutting. NEVER
use the tool with a faulty blade guard or secure the
blade guard with a rope, string, etc. Any irregular
operation of the blade guard should be corrected
immediately.
13. Immediately reattach the guard and riving knife
after completing an operation which requires
removal of the guard.
14. Do not cut metals such as nails and screws.
Inspect for and remove all nails, screws and other
foreign matter from the workpiece before opera-
tion.
15. Remove wrenches, cut-off pieces, etc. from the
table before the switch is turned on.
16. NEVER wear gloves during operation.
17. Keep hands out of the line of the saw blade.
18. NEVER stand or permit anyone else to stand in
line with the path of the saw blade.
19. Make sure the blade is not contacting the riving
knife or workpiece before the switch is turned on.
20. Before using the tool on an actual workpiece, let it
run for a while. Watch for vibration or wobbling
