– If connections for dust extraction and a collect-
ing device are present, make sure that they are
connected and used properly.
– When processing wood, materials similar to
wood, and plastics. Operation in enclosed
spaces is only permitted with the use of a suit-
able extraction system.
11 Do not use the cable for purposes for which
it is not intended
– Do not use the cable to pull the plug out of
the outlet. Protect the cable from heat, oil and
sharp edges.
12 Secure the workpiece
– Use the clamping devices or a vice to hold the
workpiece in place. In this manner, it is held
more securely than with your hand.
– An additional support is necessary for long
workpieces (table, trestle, etc.) in order to pre-
vent the machine from tipping over.
– Always press the workpiece firmly against
the working plate and stop in order to prevent
bouncing and twisting of the workpiece.
13 Avoid abnormal posture
– Make sure that you have secure footing and
always maintain your balance.
– Avoid awkward hand positions in which a sud-
den slip could cause one or both hands to come
into contact with the saw blade.
14 Take care of your tools
– Keep cutting tools sharp and clean in order to
be able to work better and more safely.
– Follow the instructions for lubrication and for
tool replacement.
– Check the connection cable of the electric tool
regularly and have it replaced by a recognised
specialist when damaged.
– Check extension cables regularly and replace
them when damaged.
– Keep the handle dry, clean and free of oil and
grease.
15 Pull the plug out of the outlet
– Never remove loose splinters, chips or jammed
wood pieces from the running saw blade.
– During non-use of the electric tool or prior to
maintenance and when replacing tools such as
saw blades, bits, milling heads.
– When the saw blade is blocked due to abnormal
feed force during cutting, turn the machine off
and disconnect it from power supply. Remove
the work piece and ensure that the saw blade
runs free. Turn the machine on and start new
cutting operation with reduced feed force.
16 Do not leave a tool key inserted
– Before switching on, make sure that keys and
adjusting tools are removed.
17 Avoid inadvertent starting
– Make sure that the switch is switched off when
plugging the plug into an outlet.
18 Use extension cables for outdoors
– Only use approved and appropriately identified
extension cables for use outdoors.
– Only use cable reels in the unrolled state.
19 Remain attentive
– Pay attention to what you are doing. Remain
sensible when working. Do not use the electric
tool when you are distracted.
20 Check the electric tool for potential damage
– Protective devices and other parts must be
carefully inspected to ensure that they are fault-
free and function as intended prior to continued
use of the electric tool.
– Check whether the moving parts function fault-
lessly and do not jam or whether parts are dam-
aged. All parts must be correctly mounted and
all conditions must be fulfilled to ensure fault-
free operation of the electric tool.
– The moving protective hood may not be fixed
in the open position.
– Damaged protective devices and parts must be
properly repaired or replaced by a recognised
workshop, insofar as nothing different is speci-
fied in the operating manual.
– Damaged switches must be replaced at a cus-
tomer service workshop.
– Do not use any faulty or damaged connection
cables.
– Do not use any electric tool on which the switch
cannot be switched on and off.
21 ATTENTION!
– Exercise elevated caution for double mitre cuts.
22 ATTENTION!
– The use of other insertion tools and other ac-
cessories can entail a risk of injury.
23 Have your electric tool repaired by a qualified
electrician
– This electric tool conforms to the applicable
safety regulations. Repairs may only be per-
formed by an electrician using original spare
parts. Otherwise accidents can occur.
Additional safety instructions
1 Safety precautions
– Warning! Do not use damaged or deformed
saw blades.
– Replace a worn table insert.
– Only use saw blades recommended by the
manufacturer which conform to EN 847-1.
– Make sure that a suitable saw blade for the
material to be cut is selected.
– Wear suitable personal protective equipment.
This includes:
– Hearing protection to avoid the risk of be-
coming hearing impaired,
– Respiratory protection to avoid the risk of
inhaling harmful dust,
– Wear gloves when handling saw blades and
rough materials. Carry saw blades in a con-
