Use the right tool. Do not force small tools to do the job of a
heavy duty tool. Do not use tools for purposes not intended, for
example, do not use circular saws to cut tree limbs or logs.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery, they can
be caught in moving parts. Non-skid footwear is recommended
when working outdoors. Wear protective hair covering to contain
long hair.
Use protective equipment. Use safety glasses. Use face or dust
mask if working operations create dust.
Connect dust extraction equipment. If the tool is provided for
the connection of dust extraction and collecting equipment, ensure
these are connected and properly used.
Do not abuse the cord. Never yank the cord to disconnect it from
the socket. Keep the cord away from heat, oil and sharp edges.
Secure work. Where possible, use clamps or a vice to hold the work.
It is safer than using your hand.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean for
better and safer performance. Follow instruction for lubricating and
changing accessories. Inspect tool cords periodically and if damaged,
have them repaired by an authorised service facility. Inspect
extension cords periodically and replace if damaged. Keep handles
dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
Disconnect tools. When not in use, before servicing and when
changing accessories such as blades, bits and cutters, disconnect tools
from the power supply.
Remove adjusting keys and wrenches. Form the habit of
checking to see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from
the tool before turning it on.
Avoid unintentional starting. Ensure switch is in "off" osition
when installing battery pack.
Use outdoor extension leads. When the tool is used outdoors, use
only extension cords intended for outdoor use and so marked.
Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, use common sense and do
not operate the tool when you are tired.
Check damaged parts. Before further use of tool, it should be
carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and
perform its intended function. Check for alignment of moving
parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting and
any other conditions that may affect its operation.
A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired
or replaced by an authorised service centre unless otherwise
indicated in this instruction manual.
Have defective switches replaced by an authorised service centre.
Do not use the tool if the switch does not turn it on and off.
Warning. The use of any accessory or attachment other than the
one recommended in this instruction manual may present a risk of
personal injury.
Have your tool repaired by a qualified person. This electric
tool complies with the relevant safety rules. Repairs should only
be carried out by qualified persons using original spare parts
otherwise this may result in considerable danger to the user.
MITRE SAW SAFETY WARNINGS
Always clamp the workpiece safely and securely.
Ensure that the machine is always stable and secure (e.g. fixed to
a bench).
Always wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause hearing
loss.
Always wear safety goggles when using the machine. It is recom-
mended to wear gloves for handling blades and rough material,
as well as sturdy non-slip shoes which also protect the feet from
workpieces that may fall from the cutting area.
Always remove the plug or battery pack before carrying out any
adjustment, maintenance or cleaning on the machine.
Ensure the machine is switched off before installing or removing
the battery pack.
Do not stand in a line with the saw blade in front of the machine.
Always stand aside of the saw blade.
Keep hands, fingers, and arms away from the rotating saw blade.
Never reach into the area near the blade, unless the blade has
completely stopped.
Before use, thoroughly check the tool for any damage or material
fatigue. Repairs should only be carried out by authorised service
agents.
Always use the guards on the machine. Do not use the machine if
the guards are not in place and working correctly.
Do not clamp the protective swing guard.
If the workpiece or blade becomes jammed, turn the mitre saw off.
Wait for all moving parts to stop and disconnect the plug from the
power source and/or remove the battery pack. Then work to free
the jammed material.
Never alter of modify the saw or its function. Your safety may be
compromised.
Do not use saw blades which are cracked, damaged, or deformed.
Do not use saw blades made of high-speed steel.
Only use saw blades which are sharp. Replace blunt blades with a
new replacement.
Use a blade holder or wear gloves when handling a saw blade.
Always use blades with correct size and shape of arbour holes.
Blades that do not match the mounting hardware of the saw will
run eccentrically, causing loss of control.
Use only woodworking blades specified in this manual, which
comply with EN 847-1.
Do not use any flanges, washers, and nuts to secure the saw blade
other than those supplied or indicated in the instruction manual.
It is essential to adhere to the maximum speed specified on the
saw blade.
It is necessary to select a saw blade which is suitable for the
material being cut.
Never use the mitre saw to cut materials other than those specified
in the intended use section in this manual.
Replace the table insert when worn or damaged.
Before work, make a dummy cut without the motor turned on so
the position of the blade, operation of the guards with respect to
other machine parts, and workpiece may be checked.
