Risk of crushing!
There is a risk of crushing your fin-
gers between the ratchet lock lever
and the track arm holder. Always
position the ratchet lock lever (by
pulling out and turning) so that there
is sufficient space between lock lever
and track arm holder.
The track arm holder engages at positive
stops at the 0°, 22.5°, and 45 ° position.

Caution!
In order to prevent the angle of incli-
nation from changing during cutting,
the ratchet lock lever must be tight-
ened (also when engaged at a posi-
tive stop!) .

Danger!
Wood dust of certain species (e.g.
oak, beech, ash) can cause cancer
when inhaled: use a dust collector
− when using the saw in enclosed
spaces;
− when
using the
extended periods (more than 1/2
hour per day);
− when cutting oak, beech or ash.

Danger! High voltage
•
Operate this machine in dry sur-
roundings only.
•
Operate the machine only on a
power source meeting the follow-
ing requirements (see also "Tech-
nical Specifications"):
− mains voltage and system fre-
quency conform to the voltage
and frequency shown on the
machine´s rating label;
− fuse protection by a residual
current operated device (RCD)
of 30 mA sensitivity;
− Outlets
properly
earthed, and tested.
•
Position power supply cable so it
does not interfere with the work
and is not damaged.
•
Protect power supply cable from
heat, aggressive
sharp edges.
•
Use only rubber-jacketed exten-
sion cables of sufficient lead
cross-section (3 x 1.5 mm
•
Do not pull on power supply
cable to unplug.

8. Operation

A
•
Before starting any work, check
to see that the safety devices are
in proper working order.
•
Use personal protection gear.
•
Assume proper operating posi-
tion:
− at the front of the saw;
− in front of the saw;
− to the side of the line of cut.

•
Risk of crushing! When tilting the
sawhead, keep your hands out of
the track arm holder's tilting
range! Hold at the sawhead.
•
If the type of work requires, use
the following:
− work support – for long stock,
− dust collector.
•
Cut only stock of dimensions that
allow for safe and secure holding
while cutting.
•
Use an auxiliary fence if small
cutoffs will result when cutting.
•
Always hold the workpiece down
on the table and do not jam it. Do
not attempt to stop the saw blade
by exerting lateral pressure. Risk
of injury if the saw blade is
blocked.
