Dust- / Chip Disposal (see figure H)
Dusts from materials such lead-containing coatings, minerals
and metal can be harmful to one’s health. Contact with or in-
haling the dusts can trigger allergic reactions to the operator
or bystanders and/or lead to respiratory infections.
Certain metal dusts are considered hazardous, especially in
conjunction with alloys such as zinc, aluminium or chromium.
Materials containing asbestos may only be worked by special-
ists.
– Provide for good ventilation of the working place.
– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class respirator.
Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the mate-
rials to be worked.
The saw blade

can become blocked by dust, chips or work-
piece fragments in the slot of the saw table

.
– Switch the machine off and pull the mains plug from the
socket outlet.
– Wait until the saw blade has come to a complete stop.
– Pull out the chip drawer
24
and empty if completely.
Prevent dust accumulation at the workplace.
Dusts can
easily ignite.
Starting Operation

The voltage of the power
source must correspond with the data on the type plate of
the machine.
Position of the Operator (see figure I)
