After switching on the saw, wait for the blade to
reach its maximum speed of rotation before
commencing with the cut.
Secure long workpieces against falling off at the
end of the cut (e.g. with a roller stand etc.)
Take extra care when starting the cut!

(A push stick is supplied with the saw!)
Always push the workpiece through to the end of
the splitter (5).
Caution! With short workpieces, use the push
stick from the beginning.
