Symbols On The Machine; Safety Devices - Metabo KGS 216 Originalbetriebsanleitung

Use only parts approved by the
manufacturer. This applies especial-
ly for:
– saw blades (see "Technical
Specifications" for stock nos.);
– safety devices (see "Spare Parts
List" for stock numbers).
Do not change any parts.
Observe the maximum speed indi-
cated on the saw blade.
A
Hazard generated by tool
defects!
Keep device and accessories in
good repair. Observe the mainte-
nance instructions.
Prior to any use check the machine
for possible damage: before operat-
ing the machine all safety devices,
protective guards or slightly dam-
aged parts need to be checked for
proper function as specified. Check
to see that all moving parts work
properly and do not jam. Make sure
that all parts and accessories are
properly installed and safely se-
cured to ensure the safe and trou-
ble-free operation of the machine.
Do not use damaged or warped saw
blades.
Damaged protection devices or
parts must be repaired or replaced
by a qualified specialist. Have dam-
aged switches replaced by a service
centre. Do not operate tool if the
switch can not be turned ON or
OFF.
Keep handles free of oil and grease.
A
Risk of injury by noise!
Wear hearing protection.
For reasons of noise protection do
not use warped saw blades. A
warped blade is exiting vibrations to
an especially large extent, which
means noise.
A
Laser radiation hazard!
A laser beam can cause serious eye in-
jury.
Never look into the laser outlet.

Safety Devices

Retractable blade guard (45)
The retractable blade guard protects
against unintentional contact with the
saw blade and from chips flying about.

Safety lock (46)
The safety lock blocks the retractable
blade guard: the saw blade remains
covered and the sawhead cannot be
lowered unless the safety lock is disen-
gaged by pushing it to the side.
Fence (47)
The fence keeps the work piece from
moving while it is cut. The fence must
always be installed when sawing.
