o) Always use a clamp or a fixture designed to
properly support round material such as rods
or tubing. Rods have a tendency to roll while be-
ing cut, causing the blade to "bite" and pull the
work with your hand into the blade.
p) Let the blade reach full speed before contact-
ing the workpiece. This will reduce the risk of the
workpiece being thrown.
q) If the workpiece or blade becomes jammed,
turn the mitre saw off. Wait for all moving
parts to stop and disconnect the plug from
the power source and/or remove the battery
pack. Then work to free the jammed material.
Continued sawing with a jammed workpiece could
cause loss of control or damage to the mitre saw.
r) After finishing the cut, release the switch,
hold the saw head down and wait for the blade
to stop before removing the cut-off piece.
Reaching with your hand near the coasting blade
is dangerous.
s) Hold the handle firmly when making an incom-
plete cut or when releasing the switch before
the saw head is completely in the down posi-
tion. The braking action of the saw may cause
the saw head to be suddenly pulled downward,
causing a risk of injury.
Safety Instructions for the handling of saw blades
1 Do not use damaged or deformed saw blades.
2 Do not use any insertion tools with cracks. Sort
out cracked insertion tools. Repairs are not per-
mitted.
3 Do not use saw blades made of high speed steel.
4 Check the condition of the saw blades before us-
ing the sliding compound mitre saw.
5 Make sure that a suitable saw blade for the ma-
terial to be cut is selected.
6 Only use saw blades recommended by the man-
ufacturer.
Saw blades designed to cut wood and similar
materials must comply with EN 847-1.
7 Do not use saw blades made of high-speed alloy
steel (HSS steel).
8 Only use saw blades for which the maximum per-
missible speed is not lower than the maximum
spindle speed of the sliding compound mitre saw
and which are suitable for the material to be cut.
9 Observe the saw blade direction of rotation.
10 Only insertion the saw blade if you have mastered
their use.
11 Observe the maximum speed. The maximum
speed specified on the insertion tool may not be
exceeded. If specified, observe the speed range.
12 Clean grease, oil and water off of the clamping
surfaces.
13 Do not use any loose reducing rings or bushes
for the reducing of holes on saw blades.
14 Make sure that fixed reducer rings for securing
the insertion tool have the same diameter and
have at least 1/3 of the cutting diameter.
15 Make sure that fixed reducer rings are parallel
to each other.
16 Handle insertion tool with caution. They are ide-
ally stored in the originally package or special
containers. Wear protective gloves in order to im-
prove grip and to further reduce the risk of injury.
17 Prior to the use of insertion tools, make sure that
all protective devices are properly fastened.
18 Prior to use, make sure that the insertion tool
meets the technical requirements of this electric
tool and is properly fastened.
19 Only use the supplied saw blade for cutting wood,
never for the processing of metals.
20 Only use saw blade diameters in accordance with
the markings on the saw.
21 Use additional workpiece supports, if required for
workpiece stability.
22 Workpiece support extensions must always be
secured and used during work.
23 Replace table inserts when worn!
24 Avoid overheating of the saw teeth.
25 When sawing plastic, avoid melting of the plastic.
Use the appropriate saw blades for this purpose.
Replace damaged or worn saw blades immedi-
ately.
When the saw blade overheats, stop the machine.
Allow the saw blade to cool down before using
the machine again.
Attention: Laser radiation
Do not stare into the beam
Class 2 laser
Protect yourself and you environment from ac-
cidents using suitable precautionary measures!
• Do not look directly into the laser beam with un-
protected eyes.
• Never look into the path of the beam.
• Never point the laser beam towards reflecting sur-
faces and persons or animals. Even a laser beam
with a low output can cause damage to the eyes.
• Caution - methods other than those specified here
can result in dangerous radiation exposure.
• Never open the laser module. Unexpected expo-
sure to the beam can occur.
• If you do not use the device for a long time, the
batteries should be removed.
• The laser may not be replaced with a different type
of laser.
