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.
• Danger of injury for fingers and hands due to the ro-
tating saw blade with improper guiding of the work-
piece.
• 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.
• Risk to health due to noise. The permissible noise
level is exceeded during operations. It is essential
that personal protective equipment, such as hearing
protection, is worn.
Attention: Danger of accidents!
The wood must always rest on both sides of the saw blade in the prism of the swivel frame. (see arrows)
