_ Make sure that the saw blade does not touch the
riving knife or the workpiece, before you
turn on the switch.
_ Let the saw run for a few moments before
inserting a workpiece. Listen for vibrations or
knocking of the saw blade, which can indicate
improper mounting or balancing of the blade.
_ The equipment may not be used for making
grooves or recesses.
_ Replace the table insert when it is worn out.
_ NEVER make any adjustments on the machine
while it is turning. Remove the plug from the
socket before making any adjustments.
_ If necessary, use a push block. A push block
MUST be used for longitudinal sawing of
smaller workpieces, so that your hands and fingers
are kept well away from the saw blade.
_ Always store your push block, whenever it is not in
use.
_ Pay special attention to the instructions that help
to reduce the hazard of KICK BACK. KICK
BACK is a sudden reaction to a jammed, bent or
badly aligned saw blade. KICK BACK
causes the workpiece to be thrown back in the
direction of the operator. KICK BACK can
lead to serious injuries. KICK BACK can be avoided
by keeping your saw blade sharp, by
keeping the rip fence parallel to the saw blade, by
maintaining the riving knife and the saw
guard in good condition and in the right position, by
keeping a good grip on the workpiece
until you have pushed it completely past the saw
blade, and by not sawing any twisted or
skewed wood pieces, or pieces that do not have a
straight edge for moving along the rip
fence, in a longitudinal direction.
_ Do not carry out any free-hand operations. Free-
hand means that you use your hands for
supporting the workpiece, or for leading it with your
hands, instead of using the rip fence or
the mitre block.
_ NEVER bend over or around the saw blade.
NEVER reach for a workpiece, before the saw
blade has come to a complete stop.
_ Avoid a sudden or too quick infeed of a workpiece.
Workpieces made of hard material
should be fed in as slowly as possible. Never fold or
turn a workpiece while feeding it into
the saw. If the saw blade jams or ceases to turn
while the workpiece is being fed in, turn the
equipment off immediately. Remove the plug from
the socket. Remove the piece that is
blocking the saw.
_ NEVER try to remove sawed off chips, and never
touch the saw guard, as long as the saw
blade is turning.
_ Remove all lose knots from the workpiece,
BEFORE starting to saw.
_ Do not maltreat the cable. Never pull on the cable,
for removing the plug from the socket.
Do not expose the cable to heat, oil, water or sharp
edges.
_ Some types of dust that is generated while
working with the saw may contain chemicals,
which can cause cancer, birth defects or other
genetic damages. Some examples of these
substances are:
_ Lead derived from paints containing lead;
_ Arsenic and chrome from chemically treated
wood.
_ The hazard to your health from such exposures is
dependent on how frequently you do this
kind of work.
_ Measures for reducing your exposure to such
chemicals: Always work in well-ventilated
surroundings and with certified safety equipment,
such as dust masks that have been specially
designed for filtering out microscopic particles.
_ For sawing operations, connect the equipment to
a dust exhaust system.
_ The guard may be lifted up while positioning a
workpiece, or for easier access during
maintenance works. Make sure that the saw guard
has been lowered and is positioned flat
against the sawing table, before connecting your
tool to the mains supply.
RESIDUAL RISKS
The following hazards may occur during the
operation of this machine:
- danger of injury to the fingers and hands while
changing the saw blade
- danger of injury through flying debris from the
workpiece
- danger of hearing damage
- health risk due to inhalation of airborne particles
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Always check that the power
supply corresponds to
the voltage on the rating plate.
INSTALLATION AND TRANSPORT
Do not carry the machine on the
handgrip; the handgrip is not
designed to carry the full weight
For carrying the machine, hold it
on both edges of the base.
