ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES
FOR TOOL
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
1. Wear eye protection.
2. Do not use the tool in presence of flammable
liquids or gases.
3. NEVER use the tool with an abrasive cut-off wheel
installed.
4. Check the blade carefully for cracks or damage
before operation. Replace cracked or damaged
blade immediately.
5. Use only saw blades recommended by the
manufacturer and which conform to EN847-1, and
observe that the riving knife must not be thicker
than the width of the cut by the saw blade and not
thinner than the body of the blade.
6. Always use accessories recommended in this
manual. Use of improper accessories such as
abrasive cut-off wheels may cause an injury.
7. Select the correct saw blade for the material to be
cut.
8. Do not use saw blades manufactured from high
speed steel.
9. To reduce the emitted noise, always be sure that
the blade is sharp and clean.
10. Use correctly sharpened saw blades. Observe the
maximum speed marked on the saw blade.
11. Clean the spindle, flanges (especially the
installing surface) and hex nut before installing
the blade. Poor installation may cause vibration/
wobbling or slippage of the blade.
12. Use saw-blade guard and riving knife for every
operation for which it can be used, including all
through sawing operations. Always install the
blade guard following the instructions out-lined in
this manual. Through sawing operations are those
in which the blade cuts completely through the
workpiece as in ripping or cross cutting. NEVER
use the tool with a faulty blade guard or secure the
blade guard with a rope, string, etc. Any irregular
operation of the blade guard should be corrected
immediately.
13. Immediately reattach the guard and riving knife
after completing an operation which requires
removal of the guard.
14. Do not cut metal objects such as nails and screws.
Inspect for and remove all nails, screws and other
foreign material from the workpiece before
operation.
15. Remove wrenches, cut-off pieces, etc. from the
table before the switch is turned on.
16. NEVER wear gloves during operation.
17. Keep hands out of the line of the saw blade.
18. NEVER stand or permit anyone else to stand in
line with the path of the saw blade.
19. Make sure the blade is not contacting the riving
knife or workpiece before the switch is turned on.

20. Before using the tool on an actual workpiece, let it
run for a while. Watch for vibration or wobbling
that could indicate poor installation or a poorly
balanced blade.
21. The tool should not be used for slotting, rabbeting
or grooving.
ENB122-1
22. Replace table insert when worn.
23. NEVER make any adjustments while tool is
running. Disconnect tool before making any
adjustments.
24. Use a push stick when required. Push sticks
MUST be used for ripping narrow workpieces to
keep your hands and fingers well away from the
blade.
25. Always store the push-stick when it is not in use.
26. Pay particular attention to instructions for
reducing risk of KICKBACK. KICKBACK is a
sudden reaction to a pinched, bound or
misaligned saw blade. KICKBACK causes the
ejection of the workpiece from the tool back
towards the operator. KICKBACKS CAN LEAD TO
SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY. Avoid KICKBACKS
by keeping the blade sharp, by keeping the rip
fence parallel to the blade, by keeping the riving
knife and blade guard in place and operating
properly, by not releasing the workpiece until you
have pushed it all the way past the blade, and by
not ripping a workpiece that is twisted or warped
or does not have a straight edge to guide along
the fence.
27. Do not perform any operation freehand. Freehand
means using your hands to support or guide the
workpiece, in lieu of a rip fence or miter gauge.
28. NEVER reach around or over saw blade. NEVER
reach for a workpiece until the saw blade has
completely stopped.
29. Avoid abrupt, fast feeding. Feed as slowly as
possible when cutting hard workpieces. Do not
bend or twist workpiece while feeding. If you stall
or jam the blade in the workpiece, turn the tool off
immediately. Unplug the tool. Then clear the jam.
30. NEVER remove cut-off pieces near the blade or
touch the blade guard while the blade is running.
31. Knock out any loose knots from workpiece
BEFORE beginning to cut.
32. Do not abuse cord. Never yank cord to disconnect
it from the receptacle. Keep cord away from heat,
oil, water and sharp edges.
33. Some dust created from operation contains
chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or
other reproductive harm. Some examples of these
chemicals are:
- lead from lead-based-painted material and,
- arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated
lumber.
- Your risk from these exposures varies,
depending on how often you do this type of
work. To reduce your exposure to these
chemicals: work in a well ventilated area and
work with approved safety equipment, such as
those dust masks that are specially designed to
filter out microscopic particles.
34. When using the tool indoors, always connect the
tool to an external dust extraction system.
