Additional safety instructions for all
saws with riving knife
a) Use the appropriate riving knife for the blade
being used. For the riving knife to work, it must
be thicker than the body of the blade but thinner
than the tooth set of the blade.
b) Adjust the riving knife as described in
this instruction manual. Incorrect spacing,
positioning and alignment can make the riving
knife ineffective in preventing kickback.
c) For the riving knife to work, it must be
engaged in the workpiece. The riving knife is
ineffective in preventing kickback during short
cuts.
d) Do not operate the saw if riving knife is bent.
Even a light interference can slow the closing
rate of a guard.
Additional safety instructions for
plunge-type saws
• Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can
cause hearing loss.
• Wear a dust mask. Exposure to dust particles
can cause breathing difficulty and possible
injury.
• Do not use blades of larger or smaller
diameter than recommended. For the proper
blade rating refer to the technical data. Use only
the blades specified in this manual, complying
with EN 847-1.
• Never use abrasive cut-off wheels.

safety regulations and the implementation of
safety devices, certain residual risks cannot be
avoided.
These are:

– Risk of accidents caused by the uncovered
parts of the rotating cutting disc.
