Ensure that any spacers and spindle rings used are
u
suitable for the purpose as stated by BLACK+DECKER.
Repairs to the cut line guidance system should be carried
u
out by authorised repair agents or BLACK+DECKER
service staff.
Unplug the machine before carrying out any maintenance
u
or when changing the blade.
Never perform any cleaning, maintenance, removal of any
u
off-cuts or other parts of the work piece form the cutting
area when the machine is running and the saw head is not
in the rest position.
When possible, always mount the machine to a bench.
u
Make sure all locking knobs and handles are tight before
u
starting any operation.
Never use your saw without the table insert.
u
Never attempt to stop the machine in motion rapidly by
u
jamming a tool or other means against the blade; serious
accidents can be caused unintentionally in this way.
Before using or fitting any accessory consult the instruc-
u
tion manual. The improper use of an accessory can cause
damage.
Raise the blade from the table insert in the work piece
u
prior to releasing the on/of switch.
Do not wedge anything against the fan to hold the motor
u
shaft.
The blade guard on your saw will automatically raise when
u
the arm is brought down; it will lower over the blade when
the arm is raised. The guard can be raised by hand when
installing or removing saw blades or for inspection of the
saw. Never raise the blade guard manually unless the
machine is switched off.
Check periodically that the motor air slots are clean and
u
free of chips.
Never make the warning signs on the power tool unrecog-
u
nisable.
Never stand on the power tool. Serious injuries could
u
occur when the power tool tips over or when coming in
contact with the saw blade.
Do not take hold of the saw blade after working before it
u
has cooled. The saw blade becomes very hot while work-
ing.
To avoid injury from materials being thrown, unplug the
u
saw to avoid accidental starting, and then remove small
materials.
Before use and after any maintenance the blade guard
u
must be checked to ensure proper function. This test must
be performed with the saw switched off and unplugged.
The arm must be raised and lowered to ensure the
guard covers the blade and the blade does not contact
the guard. If the guard fails to operate correctly, have
your power tool serviced by a qualified repair agent. Call
BLACK+DECKER customer services for you nearest
service agent.
(Original instructions)
This mitre saw has been designed for sawing wood,
u
plastic and nonferrous metal only.
Do not use the saw to cut other materials than those
recommended by the manufacturer.
Do not take hold of the saw blade after working before it
u
has cooled. The saw blade becomes very hot while
@
working.
Warning! Cutting plastics, sap coated wood, and
other materials may cause melted material to
accumulate on the blade tips and the body of the saw blade,
increasing the risk of the blade overheating and binding while
cutting.
Residual risks
The following risks are inherent to the use of saws:
Even with the application of the relevant safety regulations
and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual
risks can not be avoided. These include:
Injuries caused by touching any rotating/moving parts.
u
Impairment of hearing.
u
Risk of accidents caused by the uncovered parts of the
u
rotating saw blade.
Risk of injury when changing any parts, blades or acces-
u
sories.
Risk of squeezing fingers when opening the guards.
u
Health hazards caused by breathing dust developed when
u
sawing wood, especially oak, beech and MDF.
Injuries caused by prolonged use of a tool. When using
u
any tool for prolonged periods ensure you take regular
breaks.
Noise
The declared noise emission values have been measured in
accordance with a standard test method and may be used for
comparing one tool with another.
The declared noise emission values may also be used in a
preliminary assessment of exposure.
Warning! The noise emissions during actual use of the
power tool can differ from the declared values depending
on the ways in which the tool is used especially what kind of
workpiece is processed.
Warning! Always wear proper personal hearing protec-
tion. Under some conditions and duration of use, noise from
this product may contribute to hearing loss. Be aware of the
following factors influencing exposure to noise:
Use saw blades designed to reduce the emitted noise,
u
Use only well sharpened saw blades, and
u
Use specifically designed noise-reduction saw blades.
