Intended use
The tool is intended for accurate straight and miter cut-
ting in wood. With appropriate saw blades, aluminum can
also be sawed.
Power supply
The tool should be connected only to a power supply of
the same voltage as indicated on the nameplate, and can
only be operated on single-phase AC supply. They are
double-insulated and can, therefore, also be used from
sockets without earth wire.

MITER SAW SAFETY WARNINGS

1. Keep hands out of path of saw blade. Avoid con-
tact with any coasting blade. It can still cause
severe injury.
2. Check the saw blade carefully for cracks or
deformation before operation.
Replace damaged blade immediately.
3. Replace the kerf board when worn.
4. Use only saw blades specified by the manufac-
turer which conform to EN847-1.
5. Do not use saw blades manufactured from high
speed steel.
6. Wear eye protection.
7. Wear hearing protection to reduce the risk of
hearing loss.
8. Wear gloves for handling saw blade (saw blades
shall be carried in a holder wherever practicable)
and rough material.
9. Connect miter saws to a dust collecting device
when sawing.
10. Select saw blades in relation to the material to
be cut.
11. Do not use the saw to cut other than wood, alu-
minum or similar materials.
12. Always secure all moving portions before carry-
ing the tool. When lifting or carrying the tool, do
not use the guard as a carrying handle.
13. Do not operate saw without guards in place.
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 posi-
tion.
14. Keep the floor area free of loose material e.g.
chips and cut-offs.
16
15. Use only saw blades that are marked with a max-
imum speed equal to or higher than the no load
speed marked on the tool.
16. When the tool is fitted with a laser or LED, do not
replace the laser or LED with a different type.
ENE006-1 Ask an authorized service center for repair.
17. Never remove any cut-offs or other parts of the
workpiece from the cutting area whilst the tool is
running with an unguarded saw blade.
18. Do not perform any operation freehand. The
ENF002-2 workpiece must be secured firmly against the turn
base and guide fence with the vise during all opera-
tions. Never use your hand to secure the workpiece.
19. Ensure that the tool is stable before each cut.
20. Fix the tool to a work bench, if needed.
21. Support long workpieces with appropriate addi-
tional supports.
GEA010-1 22. Never cut so small workpiece which cannot be
securely held by the vise. Improperly held work-
piece may cause kickback and serious personal
injury.
23. Never reach around saw blade.
24. Turn off tool and wait for saw blade to stop
before moving workpiece or changing settings.
25. Unplug tool before changing blade or servicing.
26. Stopper pin which locks the cutter head down is
ENB034-10
for carrying and storage purposes only and not
for any cutting operations.
27. Do not use the tool in the presence of flammable
liquids or gases. The electrical operation of the tool
could create an explosion and fire when exposed to
flammable liquids or gases.
28. Use only flanges specified for this tool.
29. Be careful not to damage the arbor, flanges
(especially the installing surface) or bolt. Dam-
age to these parts could result in blade break-
age.
30. Make sure that the turn base is properly secured
so it will not move during operation.
31. For your safety, remove the chips, small pieces,
etc. from the table top before operation.
32. Avoid cutting nails. Inspect for and remove all
nails from the workpiece before operation.
33. Make sure the shaft lock is released before the
switch is turned on.
34. Be sure that the blade does not contact the turn
base in the lowest position.
35. Hold the handle firmly. Be aware that the saw
moves up or down slightly during start-up and
stopping.
36. Make sure the blade is not contacting the work-
piece before the switch is turned on.
37. Before using the tool on an actual workpiece, let
it run for a while. Watch for vibration or wobbling
that could indicate poor installation or a poorly
balanced blade.
38. Wait until the blade attains full speed before cut-
ting.
39. Stop operation immediately if you notice any-
thing abnormal.
40. Do not attempt to lock the trigger in the on posi-
tion.
