5. Intended use

The table circular saw is used for cutting all types of wood
lengthwise and crosswise (only with the transverse stop), de-
pending on the machine size. All types of round timbers must
not be cut with it. The machine may be used only for its pre-
scribed purpose.
Any other use beyond that is considered to be not in accord-
ance with the designated purpose. The user/operator is liable
for all types of resulting damage or injury and not the manu-
facturer.
The only saw blades which may be used are those which are
suitable for the machine (HM or CV saw blades).
The use of any type of HSS saw blades and cutting discs is
prohibited. Use in accordance with the designated purpose is
also deemed to include observance of the safety instructions,
as well as the assembly and operating instructions in the oper-
ating manual.
Individuals who operate and maintain the machine must be
familiar with it and must have been instructed in possible haz-
ards. Moreover, the latest accident prevention regulations must
be strictly observed.
Other general rules in the ields of occupational health and
safety technology must be complied with.

Even when the device is used in accordance with the desig-
nated purpose, it is nevertheless not possible to completely
eliminate certain residual risk factors. Due to the design and
structure of the machine, the following risks may occur:
• Touching the saw blade in the area of the saw which is not
covered;
• Reaching into the running saw blade (cuts)
• Kickback of workpieces and workpiece parts.
• Saw blade breaks.
• Ejection of faulty hard metal parts of the saw blade.
• Hearing damage if the necessary hearing protection is not
used.
• Emissions of wood dust which are harmful to the health when
used in closed rooms.
