• Select saw blades in relation to the material being cut.
• Use correctly sharpened saw blades and observe the
maximum speed marked on the blade.
• Take additional care when trenching (slotting).
• The mitre saw can be safely carried by the carrying
handle but only once it has been removed from the mains
power and secured in the locked down position.
• Ensure that the arm is properly secure when bevelling.
• Keep the floor area around the machine level, well
maintained and free of loose materials.
• Ensure that you are trained in the use, adjustment and
operation of the machine.
• Do not remove any cut-offs from the cutting area until
the guard is fully locked in placed and the blade has
come to rest.
• When cutting long pieces which extend well over the table
width, ensure that the ends are adequately supported at
the same height as the saw table top. Supports should
be positioned in such a way to ensure that the workpiece
does not fall to the ground once the cut has been made.
A number of supports at regular intervals may be required
if the workpiece is extremely long.
