ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

1 Safety precautions
– Warning! Do not use damaged, cracked or de-
formed saw blades.
– Replace a worn table insert.
– Only use saw blades recommended by the
manufacturer which conform to EN 847-1.
m Warning! Keep attention When changing the
saw blade. The cutting width is not smaller and
the main blade thickness of the saw blade is not
greater than the thickness of the gap wedge!
– 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 becoming
hearing impaired,
Respiratory protection to avoid the risk of inhal-
ing harmful dust,
– Wear gloves when handling saw blades and
rough materials.
– Carry saw blades in a container whenever
practical.
– Wear goggles. Sparks generated during work or
splinters, chippings and dust coming from the
device can lead to loss of eyesight.
– Connect a dust collecting device to the electric
tool when sawing wood. The emission of dust
is influenced, among other things, by the type
of material to be processed, the significance of
local separation (collection or source) and the
correct setting of the hood/guide plates/guides.
– Do not use saw blades made of high-speed
alloy steel (HSS steel).
– In times of non-use keep the push stick or the
push block with the electrical power tool in its
holder at all times.
2 Maintenance and repair
– Pull out the mains plug for any adjustment or
repair tasks.
– The generation of noise is influenced by vari-
ous factors, including the characteristics of saw
blades, condition of saw blade and electric tool.
Use saw blades which were designed for re-
duced noise development, insofar as possible.
Maintain the electric tool and tool attachments
regularly and if necessary, initiate repairs in
order to reduce noise.

– Report faults on the electric tool, protective
devices or the tool attachment to the person
responsible for safety as soon as they are dis-
covered.
3 Safe work
– Use the push stick or handle with sliding wood,
to pass the workpiece securely out off the saw
blade.
– Make sure that the riving knife is always used,
and set up is correctly.
– Use the upper blade guard and set it to the
correct position.
– Only use saw blades for which the maximum
permissible speed is not lower than the maxi-
mum spindle speed of table saws and which
are suitable for the material to be cut.
– Do not cut rebates or grooves without fitting a
suitable guard, e.g. a tunnel-type guard, over
the saw table.
– Circular saws must not be used for slotting jobs
(cutting grooves which end in the workpiece).
– When transporting the electric tool, only use
the transport devices. Never use the protective
devices for handling or transport.
– Make sure that the upper part of the saw blade
is covered during transport, e.g. by the protec-
tive device.
– Be sure to only use spacers and spindle rings
specified by the manufacturer as suitable for
the intended purpose.
– The floor around the machine must be level,
clean and free of loose particles, such as chips
and cutting residues.
– Always stand to the side of the saw blade when
working with the saw.
– Do not remove any cutting residues or other
parts of workpieces from the cutting zone while
the machine is running and the saw unit is not
at rest.
– Make sure that the machine is always secured
on a workbench or a table if at all possible.
– Support long workpieces (e.g. with a roller ta-
ble) to prevent them sagging at the end of a cut.
– m Attention! Never remove loose splinters,
chips or jammed pieces of wood while the saw
blade is running.
• Switch off the machine to troubleshoot or re-
move jammed pieces of wood. - Disconnect
the main power plug -
• Refitting, including adjusting and measuring
works, and cleaning must be carried out only
when the motor is switched off. - Discon-
nect the main power plug -
• Before switching on again, ensure that keys
and adjustment tools have been removed.
