6.
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 proxim-
ity 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
7.
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
8.
tools, wood scraps, etc., except for the work-
piece. Small debris or loose pieces of wood or
other objects that contact the revolving blade can
be thrown with high speed.
9.
Cut only one workpiece at a time. Stacked multi-
ple workpieces cannot be adequately clamped or
braced and may bind on the blade or shift during
cutting.
10. 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.
11.
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 the 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.
12. Provide adequate support such as table exten-
sions, 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. If the cut-off piece or
workpiece tips, it can lift the lower guard or be
thrown by the spinning blade.
13. Do not use another person as a substitute for
a table extension or as additional support.
Unstable support for the workpiece can cause the
blade to bind or the workpiece to shift during the
cutting operation pulling you and the helper into
the spinning blade.
14. The cut-off piece must not be jammed or
pressed by any means against the spinning
saw blade. If confined, i.e. using length stops, the
cut-off piece could get wedged against the blade
and thrown violently.
15. Always use a clamp or a fixture designed to
properly support round material such as rods
or tubing. Rods have a tendency to roll while
being cut, causing the blade to "bite" and pull the
work with your hand into the blade.
16. Let the blade reach full speed before contact-
ing the workpiece. This will reduce the risk of the
workpiece being thrown.
17. If the workpiece or blade becomes jammed,
turn the mitre saw off. Wait for all moving
parts to stop and disconnect the plug from
the power source and/or remove the battery
pack. Then work to free the jammed material.
Continued sawing with a jammed workpiece could
cause loss of control or damage to the mitre saw.
18. After finishing the cut, release the switch, hold
the saw head down and wait for the blade to stop
before removing the cut-off piece. Reaching with
your hand near the coasting blade is dangerous.
19. Only use the saw blade with the diameter that is
marked on the tool or specified in the manual.
Use of an incorrectly sized saw blade may affect the
proper guarding of the saw blade or guard operation
which could result in serious personal injury.
20. Only use the saw blades that are marked with
a speed equal or higher than the speed marked
on the tool.
21. Do not use the saw to cut materials other than
specified.
22. (For European countries only)
Always use the blade which conforms to EN847-1, if
intended for wood and analogous materials.
Additional instructions
1.
Make workshop kid proof with padlocks.
Never stand on the tool. Serious injury could
2.
occur if the tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is
unintentionally contacted.
Never leave the tool running unattended. Turn
3.
the power off. Do not leave tool until it comes
to a complete stop.
Do not operate saw without guards in place.
4.
Check blade guard for proper closing before each
use. Do not operate saw if blade guard does not
move freely and close instantly. Never clamp or
tie the blade guard into the open position.
5.
Keep hands out of path of saw blade. Avoid
contact with any coasting saw blade. It can still
cause severe injury.
6.
To reduce the risk of injury, return carriage to the
full rear position after each crosscut operation.
Always secure all moving portions before
7.
carrying the tool.
Stopper pin or stopper lever which locks the saw
8.
head down is for carrying and storage purposes
only and not for any cutting operations.
9.
Check the saw blade carefully for cracks or
damage before operation. Replace cracked or
damaged saw blade immediately. Gum and wood
pitch hardened on saw blades slows saw and
increases potential for kickback. Keep saw blade
clean by first removing it from tool, then cleaning
it with gum and pitch remover, hot water or kero-
sene. Never use gasoline to clean saw blade.
10. While making a slide cut, KICKBACK can
occur. KICKBACK occurs when the saw
blade binds in the workpiece during a cutting
operation and the saw blade is driven rapidly
towards the operator. Loss of control and
serious personal injury can result. If saw blade
begins to bind during a cutting operation,
do not continue to cut and release switch
immediately.
