Locate the table saw in a well-lit and level
area where you can maintain good footing
and balance. It should be installed in an area
that provides enough room to easily handle
the size of your workpiece. Cramped, dark
areas, and uneven slippery floors invite acci-
dents.
Frequently clean and remove sawdust from
under the saw table and/or the dust collecti-
on device. Accumulated sawdust is combusti-
ble and may self-ignite.
The table saw must be secured. A table saw
that is not properly secured may move or tip
over.
Remove tools, wood scraps, etc. from the
table before the table saw is turned on.
Distraction or a potential jam can be dange-
rous.
Always use saw blades with correct size and
shape (diamond versus round) of arbour ho-
les. Saw blades that do not match the moun-
ting hardware of the saw will run off-centre,
causing loss of control.
Never use damaged or incorrect saw blade
mounting means such as flanges, saw blade
washers, bolts or nuts. These mounting me-
ans were specially designed for your saw, for
safe operation and optimum performance.
Never stand on the table saw, do not use it as
a stepping stool. Serious injury could occur if
the tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is acci-
dentally contacted.
Make sure that the saw blade is installed to
rotate in the proper direction. Do not use
grinding wheels, wire brushes, or abrasive
wheels on a table saw. Improper saw blade
installation or use of accessories not recom-
mended may cause serious injury.
Additional safety warnings
When mounting the saw blade, wear protec-
tive gloves. This poses a risk of injury.
Do not use HSS saw blades. Such saw blades
can easily break.
Only use saw blades that match the specifica-
tions given in this operating manual and that
are tested and marked in accordance with EN
847-1

Never use the tool without the table insert.
Replace table insert if defective. Without fla-
wless table inserts, injuries are possible from
the saw blade.
Keep your work area clean. Material mixtures
are particularly hazardous. Light metal dust
may catch fire or explode.
Choose the saw blade suited to the material
you want to work on.
Only use saw blades that are recommended
by the power tool manufacturer and are
suitable for using on the material you want
to saw.
Only advance the workpiece towards the saw
blade when it is running. Otherwise there is
a risk of kickback occurring if the saw blade
catches in the workpiece.
