m) Do not use another person as a substitute for
a table extension or as additional support.
Unstable support of the workpiece can lead to
the blade becoming jammed. Also, the workpiece
could shift during the cutting process, pulling you
or your assistant into the rotating blade.
The cut-off piece must not be jammed or
n)
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.
o)
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 be-
ing cut, causing the blade to "bite" and pull the
work with your hand into the blade.
p)
Let the blade reach full speed before contact-
ing the workpiece. This will reduce the risk of the
workpiece being thrown.
q)
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 pow-
er source and/or remove the rechargeable bat-
tery. Then, remove the jammed material. If you
continue sawing with such jamming this can result
in a loss of control or to the chop and mitre saw
being damaged.
r)
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. Reach-
ing with your hand near the coasting blade is dan-
gerous.
s)
Hold the handle firmly when making an incom-
plete cut or when releasing the switch before
the saw head is completely in the down posi-
tion. The braking action of the saw may cause the
saw head to be suddenly pulled downward, caus-
ing a risk of injury.
Safety instructions for the use of saw blades
1.
Do not use damaged or deformed saw blades.
2.
Do not use saw blades with cracks. Separate
cracked saw blades. Repairs are not permitted.
3.
Do not use saw blades made of high speed steel.
4.
Check the condition of the saw blades before using
the sliding cross-cut mitre saw.

5.
Make sure that a suitable saw blade for the mate-
rial to be cut is selected.
6.
Only use saw blades recommended by the man-
ufacturer. Saw blades designed to cut wood and
similar materials must comply with EN 847-1.
7.
Do not use saw blades made of high-speed alloy
steel (HSS steel).
8.
Only use saw blades for which the maximum per-
missible speed is not lower than the maximum
spindle speed of the sliding cross-cut mitre saw,
and which are suitable for the material to be cut.
9.
Observe the direction of rotation of the saw blade.
10. Only use saw blades if you have mastered their
use.
11. Observe the maximum speed. The maximum
speed specified on the saw blade may not be ex-
ceeded. If specified, observe the speed range.
12. Clean dirt, grease, oil and water off of the clamping
surfaces.
13. Do not use any loose reducing rings or bushes for
the reducing of holes on saw blades.
14. Make sure that fixed reducer rings for securing
the saw blade have the same diameter and have
at least 1/3 of the cutting diameter.
15. Make sure that fixed reducer rings are parallel to
each other.
16. Handle saw blade with caution. They are ideally
stored in the originally package or special contain-
ers. Wear protective gloves in order to improve
grip and to further reduce the risk of injury.
17. Prior to the use of saw blades, make sure that all
protective devices are properly fastened.
18. Prior to use, ensure that the saw blade meets the
technical requirements of this sliding cross-cut
mitre saw, and is properly fastened.
19. Only use the supplied saw blade for cutting wood,
never for the processing of metals.
20. Use only a saw blade with a diameter that matches
the specifications on the saw.
21. Use additional workpiece supports if this is nec-
essary for the stability of the workpiece.
22. Workpiece support extensions must always be
secured and used during work.
23. Replace table inlays when worn!
24. Avoid overheating the saw teeth.
25. When sawing plastic, avoid melting of the plastic.
Use the appropriate saw blades for this purpose.
Replace damaged or worn saw blades immedi-
ately. When the saw blade overheats, stop the
machine. Allow the saw blade to cool down before
using the machine again.
Attention! Laser beam
Do not look into the beam!
Class 2 laser
Protect yourself and you environment from acci-
dents using suitable precautionary measures!
• Do not look directly into the laser beam with un-
protected eyes.
• Never look into the path of the beam.
• Never point the laser beam towards reflecting sur-
faces and persons or animals. Even a laser beam
with a low output can cause damage to the eyes.
• Caution - methods other than those specified here
can result in dangerous radiation exposure.
• Never open the laser module. Unexpected exposure
to the beam can occur.
• If the mitre saw is not used for an extended period
of time, the batteries should be removed.
• The laser may not be replaced with a
different type of laser.
• Repairs of the laser may only be carried out by the
laser manufacturer or an authorised representative.
6. Residual risks
The product has been built according to state-of-
the-art and the recognised technical safety rules.
However, individual residual risks can arise during
operation.
Despite use as intended, specific risk factors cannot be
entirely eliminated. Due to the design and layout of the
machine, the following risks remain:
• Contact with the saw blade in the exposed sawing
area.
• Reaching into the running saw blade (cutting injury).
• Kick-back of workpieces and workpiece parts.
• Saw blade breakage.
• Ejection of faulty carbide parts of the saw blade.

• Hearing damage when the necessary hearing pro-
tection is not used.
• Harmful emissions of wood dusts during use in en-
closed areas.
• Health hazard due to electrical power, with the use
of improper electrical connection cables.
• Furthermore, despite all precautions having been
met, some non-obvious residual risks may still re-
main.
• Residual risks can be minimised if the "Safety In-
structions" and the "Intended Use" together with the
operating manual as a whole are observed.
• Avoid accidental starting of the product: the oper-
ating button may not be pressed when inserting the
plug in a socket.
• Use the tool attachment that is recommended in this
operating manual. This is how to ensure that your
product provides optimum performance.
• Keep your hands away from the working area when
the product is in operation.
• Do not unnecessary stress the machine: too much
pressure when sawing will damage the saw blade
quickly. This results in reduced output of the ma-
chine in the processing and in cut precision.
• When cutting plastic material, please always use
clamps: the parts which should be cut must always
be fixed between the clamps.
• Before performing setting or maintenance work, re-
lease the start button and pull out the power plug.
