12.5 Electrical Safety

 Make sure that the machine is earthed.
 Only use suitable extension cords.
 A damaged or tangled cable increases the risk of electric shock. Handle the cable with
care. Never use the cable to carry, pull or disconnect the power tool. Keep the cable away
from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
 Proper plugs and sockets reduce the risk of electric shock.
 Water entry into machine increases the risk of electric shock. Do not expose machine to
rain or moisture.
 The machine may only be used in humid environments if the power source is protected by
a residual current circuit breaker.
 Do not use the power tool if it cannot be turned on and off with the ON/OFF switch.

12.6 Special Safety Instructions for Woodworking machines

 Work with gloves on rotating parts is not permitted!
 During operation of the machine wood dust is generated. Therefore, connect the machine
to a suitable dust collection system for dust and chips during installation when working in
a non-ventilated rooms and always switch on the dust collection system before you start
machining the workpiece!
 Never remove sections or other parts of the workpiece from the cutting area while the ma-
chine is running.
 When using milling tools with a diameter of ≥ 16 mm and circular saw blades, these must
comply with EN 847-1:2013 and EN 847-2:2013; tool carriers must comply with EN 847-
3:2013;
 Excessive noise can cause hearing damage and temporary or permanent hearing loss.
Wear hearing protection certified to health and safety regulations to limit noise exposure.
 Replace cracked and deformed saw blades immediately, they cannot be repaired.
 Use a push stick for cutting operations where less than 120mm is cut, i.e. less than
120mm distance to the right of the saw blade from the rip fence. Do not feed the wood by
hand, only with the push stick!

12.7 Hazard Warnings

Despite their intended use, certain residual risks remain.
 Risk of injury to fingers and hands from the rotating saw blade if the workpiece is guided
improperly.
 Injuries caused by the workpiece being thrown away by improper mounting or guidance,
such as working without a stop.
 Danger to health from wood dust or chips. It is essential to wear personal protective
equipment such as eye protection and a dust mask. Use a dust collection system!
 Injuries due to defective saw blade. Check the saw blade regularly for damage.
 Risk of electric shock if incorrect electrical connections are used.
Residual risks can be minimized if the "Safety instructions" and the "Intended use" as well as the
operating instructions are observed.
Due to the structure and construction of the machine, hazardous situations may occur when han-
dling the machines:
