• Safety equipment on the machine must not be disas-
sembled or made unusable.
• Do not cut workpieces that are too small in order to
keep them secure in your hands.
• Never remove loose splinters, chips or jammed
wood pieces from the running saw band.
• The applicable accident prevention regulations and
the other generally accepted safety rules must be
observed.
• Observe the instructions of the employers' liability
insurance association (VBG 7).
• Attention! Secure long workpieces against tipping
at the end of the cutting process. (e.g. roller stand,
etc.).
• The saw band guard (3) must be in the lowest posi-
tion close to the table during transport of the device.
• Protective covers must not be used for transport or
improper operation of the machine.
• Deformed or damaged saw bands may not be used.
• Replace the worn table insert.
• Never operate the machine when the door protect-
ing the saw band or the guard is open.
• Make sure that the choice of saw band and speed is
suitable for the material to be cut.
• Do not start cleaning the saw band until it has come
to a complete stop.
• Use a push stick when making straight cuts in small
workpieces against the parallel stop.
• Wear gloves when handling the saw band and rough
materials!
• During transport, the saw band guard should be in
the lowest position and close to the table.
• For mitre cuts with an inclined table, the parallel stop
should be placed on the lower part of the table.
• Never use guards for lifting or transport.
• Be sure to use and properly adjust the saw band
guards.
• Keep your hands at a safe distance from the band
saw blade. Use a push stick for narrow cuts.
• Set the adjustable guards such that they are as
close as possible to the workpiece.
• Store the push stick on the holder provided for it on
the machine so that you can reach it from your nor-
mal working position and always have it to hand.
• In the normal working position, the operator is in
front of the machine.
• Do not use any coolants. Using water or other cool-
ants may result in an electric shock.
• Do not operate the power tool with the access cover
to the band saw blade open. Contact with moving
parts can cause bodily injury.

6. Residual risks
The power tool is state-of-the-art and has been built
according to the recognised technical safety regula-
tions. However, individual residual risks can arise dur-
ing operation.
• Danger of injury for fingers and hands due to the
running band saw blade with improper guiding of
the workpiece. Injuries due to the workpiece being
ejected at high speed due to improper holding or
guiding, such as working without the stop.
• Risk to health from wood dust or wood chippings.
It is essential that personal protective equipment,
such as eye protection, is worn. Use a chip extrac-
tion system!
• Injuries due to defective saw band. Check the integ-
rity of the saw band regularly.
• Danger of injury for fingers and hands when chang-
ing the saw band. Wear suitable work gloves.
• Danger of injury when the machine is switched on
from the running saw band.
• Hazard due to electrical power, with the use of im-
proper electrical connection cables.
• Danger to health from running saw band due to long
hair and loose clothing. Wear personal protective
equipment such as a hair net and close-fitting work
clothing.
• Furthermore, despite all precautions having been
met, some non-obvious residual risks may still re-
main.
• Residual risks can be minimised if the "General safe-
ty instructions" and the "Proper use" are observed
along with the whole of the operating instructions.
