Safety Notes

en
General Safety Rules
Read all warning notes and instruc-
tions enclosed with the sawing sta-
tion and the power tool to be
mounted. Failure to follow the
warnings and instructions may re-
sult in electric shock, fire and/or se-
rious injury.
Safety Warnings for Sawing Stations
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 sawing station in the proper
manner before mounting the power tool.
Safe guiding of the power tool is possible on-
ly when the sawing station is properly assem-
bled.
Place the sawing station on a firm, level and
horizontal surface. If the sawing station can
slip off or wobbles, the power tool or the
workpiece cannot be uniformly and securely
guided.
Attach the power tool securely to the saw-
ing station before using it. Slipping off of the
power tool on the sawing station can lead to
loss of control.
Take care that the cable of the power tool
does not come between the base unit and
the guide rail. When the cable is damaged or
cut through, there is danger of electric
shock.
Remove the power tool before modifying
the sawing station or folding up the guide
rails. The power tool can fall down, become
damaged or cause injuries.
Do not use a defective sawing station. Only
an intact sawing station can guide the power
tool securely.
Bosch Power Tools
Ensure that long and heavy workpieces do
not affect the equilibrium of the sawing sta-
tion. Long and/or heavy workpieces must be
supported at the free end.
Wear protective gloves when cutting tiles.
Sharp edges develop on broken tiles and can
cause injuries to the operator.
Use the saw station only for cutting the ma-
terials listed under Intended Use. Marble or
granite as well as tiles with a rough surface
structure and natural stone tiles cannot be
cut.
