able holding device.
• The machine is equipped with a safety switch to prevent it
from being switched on again accidentally after a power
failure.
• If you need to use an extension cable, make sure its
conductor cross-section is big enough for the saw's power
consumption. Minimum cross-section 1 mm
• If you use a cable reel, the complete cable must be pulled
off the reel.
• Persons working on the machine should not be distracted.
• After you have switched off the motor, never slow down

have completed any repairs or maintenance work.
• Be sure to observe the safety information and operating
and maintenance instructions issued by the manufacturer,
as well as the dimensions listed in the Technical Data.
• It is imperative to observe the accident prevention regula-
tions in force in your area as well as all other generally
recognized rules of safety.
• Note the information published by your professional as-
sociations (VBG 7j).
• The saw is intended to be used indoors only.
• Workpieces that are smaller than the saw blade guard can
cause injuries to the hands or fingers. Use suitable aids!
• Avoid cramped hand positions when guiding in the work-
piece and avoid positions in which slipping could lead to
your hand making direct contact with the saw blade.
• Always fit the saw blade with the teeth facing in the direc-
tion of the sawing table.
• Always set the correct blade tension to prevent the saw
blades from jerking.
• Be especially careful when cutting material with irregular
cut profiles.
• Exercise particular caution when cutting round objects
such as rods and pipes. These can roll down into the saw
blade and cause the teeth to catch. Use a wedge to brace
such workpieces.
• The teeth can become caught in the kerf when the work-
piece is pulled back, especially if sawings have filled in
(blocked) the kerf. In this case, you should switch the saw
off, pull the power plug, clear the kerf with a wedge, and
remove the workpiece.
• Never leave the work area without having already
switched the saw off. Wait until the saw stops moving
completely.
• Do not position, join, or construct any parts on the work
table while the saw is running.
• Only switch the saw on after you have removed any re-
maining material and tools from the work table. Leave only
the workpiece to be machined and any aids (e.g. wedges)
on the work table.
• Always wear safety goggles!
• Keep your fingers at a safe distance from the saw blade.
• Carefully guide the workpiece and keep it steady at all
times.
• Never leave the work area without having already
switched the saw off.
• Do not let your familiarity with the saw allow you to be
careless. Carelessness can lead to severe injuries within a
fraction of a second.
Safe work
• When transporting the electric tool, only use the transport
devices (Abb.1 Pos.10).
• Never use the protective devices for handling or transport.
• Make sure that the lower part of the saw blade is covered
during transport, e.g. by the protective device.
• Working position is always laterally of the saw blade.
Do not lose this safety information.
