at all times. This enables better control of the power tool
in unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair and clothing away from
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can
be caught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used. Use of dust collection
can reduce dust-related hazards.
h) Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of
tools allow you to become complacent and ignore
tool safety principles. A careless action can cause
severe injury within a fraction of a second.
4) POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power
tool for your application. The correct power tool will
do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn
it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/
or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from
the power tool before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children
and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power
tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained
users.
e) Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage
of parts and any other condition that may affect the
power tool's operation. If damaged, have the power
tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused
by poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc.,
in accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for operations different
from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean
and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and
grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and
control of the tool in unexpected situations.
5) SERVICE
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts. This
will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR MITRE SAWS
•
Mitre saws are intended to cut wood or wood-like
products, they cannot be used with abrasive cut-off
wheels for cutting ferrous materials such as bars,
rods, studs, etc Abrasive dust causes moving parts
such as lower guard to jam. Sparks from abrasive cutting
will burn the lower guard, the kerf insert and other plastic
parts.
•
Use clamps to support workpiece whenever
possible. If supporting the workpiece by hand, you
must always keep hand at least 100 mm from either
side of the saw blade. Do not use this saw to cut
pieces that are too small to be securely clamped
or held by hand If your hand is placed too close to the
saw blade, there is an increased risk of injury from blade
contact.
•
The workpiece must be stationary and clamped or
held against both the fence and the table. Do not
feed the workpiece into the blade or cut "freehand"
in any way Unrestrained or moving workpieces could be
thrown at high speeds, causing injury.
•
Push the saw through the workpiece. Do not pull the
saw through the workpiece. To make a cut, raise the
saw head and pull it out over the workpiece without
cutting, start the motor, press the saw head down
and push the saw through the workpiece Cutting on
the pull stroke is likely to cause the saw blade to climb
on top of the workpiece and violently throw the blade
assembly towards the operator.
•
Never cross your hand over the intended line of
cutting either in front or behind the saw blade
Supporting the workpiece "cross handed" i.e. holding the
workpiece to the right of the saw blade with your left hand
or vice versa is very dangerous.
•
Do not reach behind the fence with either hand
closer than 100 mm from either side of the saw
blade, to remove wood scraps, or for any other
reason while the blade is spinning The proximity of
the spinning saw blade to your hand may not be obvious
and you may be seriously injured.
•
Inspect your workpiece before cutting If the
workpiece is bowed or warped, clamp it with the
outside bowed face toward the fence. Always make
certain that there is no gap between the workpiece,
fence and table along the line of the cut Bent or
warped workpieces can twist or shift and may cause
binding on the spinning saw blade while cutting. There
should be no nails or foreign objects in the workpiece.
•
Do not use the saw until the table is clear of all
tools, wood scraps, etc , except for the workpiece
Small debris or loose pieces of wood or other objects
that contact the revolving blade can be thrown with high
speed.
•
Cut only one workpiece at a time Stacked multiple
workpieces cannot be adequately clamped or braced
and may bind on the blade or shift during cutting.
•
Ensure the mitre saw is mounted or placed on a
level, firm work surface before use. A level and firm
work surface reduces the risk of the mitre saw becoming
unstable.
•
Plan your work! Every time you change the bevel
or mitre angle setting, make sure the adjustable
fence is set correctly to support the workpiece and
will not interfere with blade or the guarding system
Without turning the tool "ON" and with no workpiece
on the table, move the saw blade through a complete
simulated cut to assure there will be no interference or
danger of cutting the fence.
•
Provide adequate support such as table extensions,
saw horses, etc. for a workpiece that is wider or
longer than the table top. Workpieces longer or wider
than the mitre saw table can tip if not securely supported.
