Never Stand Directly In Line With The Saw - Parkside PMTS 210 A1 Originalbetriebsanleitung

a)

Never stand directly in line with the saw

blade. Always stand at the side of the saw
blade on which the stop rail is located.
With kickback, the workpiece may be thrust at high
speed towards those persons who stand in front of, or in
line with the saw blade.
b) Never reach over or behind the saw blade to
pull or support the workpiece.
This can result in accidental contact with the saw blade,
or kickback can lead to your fingers being drawn into
the saw blade.
c) Never hold and push the workpiece against
the turning saw blade during sawing.
Pushing the workpiece against the saw blade during saw-
ing will lead to jamming and kickback.
d) Align the stop rail parallel to the saw blade.
A stop rail that is not aligned will push the workpiece
against the saw blade and create kickback.
e) With concealed saw cuts (e.g. folds, grooves
or slits in the turning process), use a thrust col-
lar to guide the workpiece against the table
and stop rail.
Using a thrust collar, you are able to better control the
workpiece in the event of kickback.
f) Apply particular caution when sawing assem-
bled workpieces in areas that are not visible.
The plunging saw blade can saw into objects that could
cause a kickback.
g) Support large panels, in order to avoid the
risk of kickback due to a jammed saw blade.
Large panels may bend under their own weight. Panels
must be supported in all areas where they overhang the
table surface.
h) Apply particular caution when sawing work-
pieces that are twisted, knotted or warped, or
that do not have a straight edge that can be
used to guide them with a mitre stop or along
a stop rail.
A twisted, knotted or warped workpiece is unstable and
results in incorrect alignment of the kerf with the saw
blade, jamming and kickback.
i) Never saw multiple workpieces stacked on
top of each other, or one behind the other.
The saw blade could engage in one or more parts and
result in kickback.
j) If you wish to restart a saw, the saw blade
of which is inserted in a workpiece, centre the
saw blade in the sawing gap so that the saw
teeth are not hooked in the workpiece.If the
saw blade is jammed, it can lift the workpiece and cause
kickback when the saw is restarted.
k) Always keep saw blades clean, sharp and suf-
ficiently set. Never use warped saw blades or
saw blades with cracked or broken teeth.
Sharp and correctly set saw blades minimise jamming,
blocking and kickback.
Safety instructions for the operation of circular ta-
ble saws
a) Switch off the circular table saw and discon-
nect it from the power supply before remov-
ing the table insert, changing the saw blade,
implementing settings on the riving knife or
the saw blade protective cover, and if the ma-
chine is left unattended.
Precautionary measures serve to prevent accidents.
b) Never leave the circular table saw running
unattended. Switch off the electric tool and
do not leave it until it has come to a complete
standstill.
An unattended running saw poses an uncontrolled risk.
c) Set up the circular table saw in a location that
is level and well ventilated, and where it can
stand safely and remain balanced. The instal-
lation site must provide sufficient space for
easily handling the size of your workpieces.
Disorganised and unlit working areas, and uneven, slip-
pery floors may lead to accidents.
d) Regularly remove chips and sawdust from
beneath the saw table and/or from the dust
extraction system.
Accumulated sawdust is flammable and can self-ignite.
e) Secure the circular table saw.
If a circular table saw is not secured correctly, it can move
or topple.
f) Remove the adjustment tools, wood residues,
etc. from the circular table saw before switch-
ing it on.
Deflections and possible jams could be dangerous.
g) Always use the right size of saw blade and
an appropriate location hole (e.g. diamond-
shaped or round).
Saw blades that do not fit with the mounting parts of the
saw will run out-of-centre and result in a loss of control.
h) Never use damaged or incorrect saw blade
mounting materials, such as flanges, washers,
screws or nuts.
These saw blade mounting materials have been specially
designed for your saw, for optimum performance and
operational safety.
i) Never stand on the circular table saw and do
not use it as a step stool.
Serious injuries can arise if the electric tool topples or if
you accidentally come into contact with the saw blade.
j) Make sure that the saw blade is mounted in
the correct direction of rotation. Do not use
grinding discs or wire brushes with the circu-
lar table saw.
Incorrect assembly of the saw blade or the use of ac-
cessories that have not been recommended can result in
serious injuries.
