Bench Mounting - Makita MLS100 Betriebsanleitung

17. After finishing the cut, release the switch,
hold the saw head down and wait for the blade
to stop before removing the cut-off piece.
Reaching with your hand near the coasting blade
is dangerous.
18. Hold the handle firmly when making an incom-
plete cut or when releasing the switch before
the saw head is completely in the down posi-
tion. The braking action of the saw may cause
the saw head to be suddenly pulled downward,
causing a risk of injury.
19. Only use the saw blade with the diameter that
is marked on the tool or specified in the man-
ual. Use of an incorrectly sized blade may affect
the proper guarding of the blade or guard opera-
tion which could result in serious personal injury.
20. Only use the saw blades that are marked with
a speed equal or higher than the speed marked
on the tool.
21. Do not use the saw to cut other than wood,
aluminum or similar materials.
22. (For European countries only)
Always use the blade which conforms to EN847-1.

2. Never stand on the tool. Serious injury could
occur if the tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is
unintentionally contacted.
3. Never leave the tool running unattended. Turn
the power off. Do not leave tool until it comes
to a complete stop.
4. Do not operate saw without guards in place.
Check blade guard for proper closing before
each use. Do not operate saw if blade guard
does not move freely and close instantly.
Never clamp or tie the blade guard into the
open position.
Keep hands out of path of saw blade. Avoid

contact with any coasting blade. It can still
cause severe injury.
6. Always secure all moving portions before
carrying the tool.
7. Stopper pin which locks the cutter head down
is for carrying and storage purposes only and
not for any cutting operations.
8. Check the blade carefully for cracks or dam-
age before operation. Replace cracked or dam-
aged blade immediately. Gum and wood pitch
hardened on blades slows saw and increases
potential for kickback. Keep blade clean by
first removing it from tool, then cleaning it with
gum and pitch remover, hot water or kerosene.
Never use gasoline to clean blade.
9. Use only flanges specified for this tool.
10. Be careful not to damage the arbor, flanges (espe-
cially the installing surface) or bolt. Damage to
these parts could result in blade breakage.
Make sure that the turn base is properly
11.
secured so it will not move during operation.
Use the holes in the base to fasten the saw to a
stable work platform or bench. NEVER use tool
where operator positioning would be awkward.
12. Make sure the shaft lock is released before the
switch is turned on.
13. Be sure that the blade does not contact the
turn base in the lowest position.
14. Hold the handle firmly. Be aware that the saw moves
up or down slightly during start-up and stopping.
15. Make sure the blade is not contacting the
workpiece before the switch is turned on.
16. Before using the tool on an actual workpiece,
let it run for a while. Watch for vibration or
wobbling that could indicate poor installation
or a poorly balanced blade.
17. Stop operation immediately if you notice any-
thing abnormal.
18. Do not attempt to lock the trigger in the "ON"
position.
19. Always use accessories recommended in this
manual. Use of improper accessories such as
abrasive wheels may cause an injury.
20. Some material contains chemicals which may be
toxic. Take caution to prevent dust inhalation and
skin contact. Follow material supplier safety data.
