General Safety Rules

Read all warning notes and in-
WARNING
structions enc slosed with the
saw stand and the power tool to be mounted.
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions
may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious
injury.
Safety Warnings for Saw Stands
Pull the plug from the mains receptacle
and/or remove the battery from the power
tool before making adjustments on the tool
or changing tool accessories. Unintentional
switching on of the power tool is the cause of
many accidents.
Assemble the saw stand in the proper man-
ner before mounting the power tool. Proper
assembly is important to prevent the risk of
a collapse of the saw stand.
Attach the power tool securely to the saw
stand before using it. Slipping off of the
power tool on the saw stand can lead to loss
of control.
Place the saw stand on a firm, level and hor-
izontal surface. If the saw stand can slip off
or wobbles, the power tool or the workpiece
cannot be uniformly and securely guided.
Bosch Power Tools
Do not overload the saw stand and do not
use it as a ladder or scaffolding. Overload-
ing or standing on the saw stand can lead to
the upward shifting of the centre of gravity of
the stand and its tipping over.
When working or transporting, take care
that all bolts and connecting elements are
firmly tightened. Loose connections can
lead to instability and inexact sawing.
Mount and dismount the power tool only
when it is in the transport position (for in-
structions on the transport position, also
see the operating instructions of the re-
spective power tool). Otherwise, the power
tool can have such an unfavourable centre of
gravity that it cannot be held securely.
When the power tool is mounted to the
mounting plate, operate it exclusively on
the saw stand. Without the saw stand, the
mounting plate with the power tool does not
stand securely and can tip over.
Ensure that long and heavy workpieces do
not affect the equilibrium of the saw stand.
Long and/or heavy workpieces must be sup-
ported at the free end.
Keep your fingers clear of the hinge points
while pushing the saw stand together or
pulling it apart. Danger of fingers being
crushed or contused.
