machine must be clear of interfering foreign matter
to prevent accidents occurring.
• Workpieces must be completely free of foreign ob-
jects, i.e. nails or screws.
• The circular sawbench is designed exclusively for
the machining of wood and materials similar to

fect condition in accordance with its designated

er, generally recognized safety-technical rules must
also be adhered to.

Residual risks
The machine has been built using modern technol-
ogy in accordance with recognized safety rules.
Some remaining hazards, however, may still exist.
• The rotating saw blade can cause injuries to fingers
and hands if the work piece is incorrectly fed.
• Thrown work pieces can lead to injury if the work
piece is not properly secured or fed.
• Noise can be a health hazard. The permitted noise
level is exceeded when working. Be sure to wear
personal protective gear such as ear protection.
• Defective saw blades can cause injuries. Regularly
inspect the structural integrity of saw blades.
• The use of incorrect or damaged mains cables can
lead to injuries caused by electricity.
• The operating instructions supplied with the special
accessories must be observed and carefully read
when special accessories are used.
• Even when all safety measures are taken, some
residual risks which are not yet evident may still
be present.
• Remaining hazards can be minimized by following
the instructions in "General safety notes", "Intended
use" and in the entire operating manual.
Attention: risk of accident! The wood must always
be seated on both sides of the saw blade on the
v-block of the rocker. (see arrow; Fig. 15a)
