Additional Safety Instructions - Scheppach HM120L Originalbetriebsanleitung

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 work-
pieces (table, trestle, etc.) in order to prevent the
machine from tipping over.
– Always press the workpiece firmly against the
working plate and stop in order to prevent bounc-
ing and twisting of the workpiece.
13 Avoid abnormal posture
– Make sure that you have secure footing and al-
ways maintain your balance.
– Avoid awkward hand positions in which a sudden
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 main-
tenance 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 ad-
justing 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 sen-
sible 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 care-
fully 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-
22 GB
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 acces-
sories 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 performed 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 manu-
facturer which conform to EN 847-1.
– Make sure that a suitable saw blade for the mate-
rial to be cut is selected.
– Wear suitable personal protective equipment. This
includes:
– Hearing protection to avoid the risk of becom-
ing 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 con-
tainer 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).
2 Maintenance and repair
– Pull out the mains plug for any adjustment or re-
pair tasks.
