● Use clamps or another practical way to secure and
support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the
work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and
may lead to loss of control.
Residual risks
The following risks are inherent to the use of saws:
● Injuries caused by touching the rotating parts.
Even with the application of the relevant safety regulations
and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual
risks cannot be avoided. These are:
● Impairment of hearing.
● Risk of accidents caused by the uncovered parts of the
rotating saw blade.
● Risk of injury when changing the blade.
● Risk of squeezing fingers when opening the guards.
● Health hazards caused by breathing dust developed when
sawing wood, especially oak, beech and MDF.
