Supplementary safety instructions for the table saw
The table saw must not be used by children or per-
sons with impaired physical, sensory or mental ca-
pacities or lack of experience and knowledge.
- The operator must be at least 18 years of age.
- Keep children away from the table saw. Make sure
children do not play with the table saw or insert any
objects into the table saw.
- Do not allow children to play with the packaging
wrapper. They may get caught in it when playing
and suffocate.
- Set up the table saw in a stable position.
- Ensure that the surfaces surrounding the table saw
are even, clean and free from loose particles and
cut debris.
- Safety devices on the table saw must not be re-
moved or dismantled.
- Wear personal protective gear when using the ta-
ble saw. These may include:
• Hearing protection to reduce the risk of suffering
hearing damage;
• Protective goggles to reduce the risk of wood
splinters going into your eyes;
• Respiratory protection to reduce the risk of inhal-
ing dust that is hazardous to health;
• Gloves when handling saw blades and rough
materials. It is recommended to store the saw
blades in a container to prevent injury.
- Avoid awkward hand positions where there is a risk
of suddenly slipping or both hands coming into con-
tact with the saw blade.
- When sawing, position yourself slightly to the side
and not straight in front of the saw blade.
- Connect the table saw to a suitable dust extractor
when cutting wood. The table saw should only be
operated in closed rooms with a suitable dust ex-
tractor.
- Promptly replace a worn or damaged table insert.
- Before beginning any job, ensure that the splitting
wedge and the saw blade protector are correctly
fitted, positioned and screwed in tightly.
- Use a push stick to push the workpiece through the
saw blade.
- Always keep the push stick in its holder when not
in use.
- For particularly long workpieces, always use an ad-
ditional support (table, stand etc.) to avoid the table
saw or the workpiece tipping over.
- Always push the workpiece firmly against the table
saw and the end stop when sawing to prevent the
workpiece from turning over or wobbling.
- Do not try to cut rebates or grooves with the table
saw without fitting a suitable protective device, e.g.
a tunnel-type device, over the saw table.
- Do not use the table saw to cut slots (a groove end-
ing in the workpiece).
- Do not use the table saw to cut firewood.
- Never remove loose splinters, chips or clamped-in
wood parts while the saw blade is running.
- Always remove the mains plug from the socket be-
fore adjusting settings or performing maintenance
and cleaning.
- Do not clamp the table saw protection when it is
folded out.
- Only use the transport fixtures for transport; never
use the protective fixtures for handling or transport.
- During transport, always cover the top part of the
saw blade, for example with the saw blade guard.
- Only connect the table saw if the mains voltage of
the socket corresponds to the specification on the
nameplate.
- Only connect the table saw to an easily accessible
socket so that you can quickly disconnect the table
saw from the power supply in the event of a fault.
- If an extension cord is required, make sure its diame-
ter is sufficient to accommodate the power consump-
tion of the table saw. Minimum diameter 1 mm
- Only use cable drums if the cable is completely
rolled out.
- Check the mains connection line. Do not use any
faulty or damaged mains connection lines.
- The table saw is equipped with a safety switch to
protect it against reactivation after a voltage drop.
- Never operate the table saw in wet rooms or in the
rain.
- If the mains connection line of the table saw is dam-
aged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its
after sales support or a similarly qualified person in
order to prevent risks.
- Never touch the mains plug with damp hands.
- Never pull the mains plug out of the socket by the
mains connection line; instead, always do so by
taking hold of the mains plug.
- Lay the mains connection line so that it does not
pose a tripping hazard.
- Do not kink the mains connection line and do not lay
it over sharp edges. Protect it from heat sources.
Supplementary safety instructions for the saw blades
- Do not use any damaged or deformed saw blades.
- Do not use saw blades which exhibit cracks. Dis-
pose of any cracked saw blades. It is not permis-
sible to repair them.
- Do not use any saw blades made of high speed
steel.
- Check the condition of the saw blades before you
use the table saw.
- Only use saw blades suitable for the material you
intend to cut.
- Only use the saw blades specified by the manufac-
turer. The saw blades must comply with EN 847-1
if they are intended for cutting wood or similar ma-
terials.
- Do not use saw blades made from high-alloyed
high speed steel (HSS).
- Only use saw blades whose maximum permissible
speed is not less than the maximum spindle speed
of the table saw and suitable for the material you
intend to cut.
