• The machine must be on a horizontal, level floor
during operation and the floor around the machine
must be level, well maintained and free of waste
such as chips and cut-off workpieces.
• Do not use the machine at locations with a high risk
of fire.
Warning! This power tool generates an electromag-
netic field during operation. This field can impair ac-
tive or passive medical implants under certain cir-
cumstances. In order to prevent the risk of serious
or deadly injuries, we recommend that persons with
medical implants consult with their physician and the
manufacturer of the medical implant prior to operating
the power tool.
3. Proper use
The firewood circular saw is designed exclu-
sively with the offered tool for machining wood.
The machine complies with the applicable EC
machinery directive.
• The Roller-bench firewood saw is designed as a
one-man operating station and is only to be used
outdoors.
• Only the operator may work or load the product,
only two people may transport the product. Pull out
the mains plug prior to each transport.
• The Roller-bench firewood saw is a transportable
circular saw. It can only be used for cross-cutting
firewood with safety cage in accordance with the
technical data.
• The saw is designed exclusively for cross-cutting
firewood with a maximum length of 1m.
• Do not use the saw to cut other materials.
• Regardless of the wood diameter, only one work-
piece may be placed on the roller table.
• Observe all safety and danger notices on the
machine and keep them complete and in legible
condition.
• The working area and surroundings of the machine
must be kept free of disruptive foreign bodies in
order to prevent accidents.
• Basically, the timbers to be cut must be free of
foreign bodies such as nails and screws.
• Only use the machine when in a technically fault-
less condition, appropriately and in compliance
with the operating instructions and with full knowl-
edge of safety and hazards. In particular, rectify
malfunctions that could impair safety immediately
(or commission rectification works accordingly).
• The safety, operating and maintenance speci-
fications of the manufacturer, as well as the di-
mensions specified in the technical data, must be
observed.
• The applicable accident prevention regulations
and the other generally accepted safety rules must
be complied with.

• The machine may only be used, maintained or re-
paired by persons who are familiar with it and have
been informed of the dangers. The manufacturer
shall not be liable for damage resulting from unau-
thorised changes to the machine.
• The machine may only be operated with original
accessories and original tools from the manufac-
turer.
• Any use beyond this is improper use. The manu-
facturer is not responsible for the resulting dam-
ages; the user solely bears the risk.
• Only use saw blades that comply with the Euro-
pean standard DIN EN 847-1.
• Ensure adequate lighting.
• Make sure that the machine is stable on solid
ground during assembly.
• The area around the machine must be free of trip
hazards.
• The machine may only be operated outdoors with-
out extraction.
• The machine is equipped with an mechanical
brake, do not brake the machine by the saw blade.
4. m Residual risks
The machine has been built according to the
state-of-the-art and the recognised technical
safety requirements. However, individual resid-
ual risks can arise during operation.
• Danger of injury for fingers and hands due to the
rotating saw blade with improper guiding of the
workpiece.
• Risk to health from wood dust or wood chippings.
The type of wood and degree of drying has an influ-
ence on the exposure to dust. Use a chip extraction
system if necessary.
• Wearing personal protective equipment such as
protective goggles and dust masks is mandatory.
• Risk to health due to noise. The permissible noise
level is exceeded during operations. It is essential
that personal protective equipment, such as hear-
ing protection, is worn.
• 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
remain.
• Residual risks can be minimised if the "safety
instructions" and the "Proper use" are observed
along with the whole of the operating instructions.
• Injuries due to defective saw blade. Check the integ-
rity of the saw blade regularly and before each use.
• When using special accessories, the operating
instructions enclosed with the special accessories
must be observed and read carefully.
• The noise emission can be reduced by using a spe-
cific saw blade.
