5.  HEALTH AND SAFETY INFORMATION

5.1  GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR POWER TOOL USE

When using any type of power tool there are steps that should be taken to make sure that you, as the 
user, remain safe.
Common sense and a respect for the tool will help reduce the risk of injury.

Read the instruction manual fully.

 Do not attempt any operation until you have read and understood 

this manual.
Most important you must know how to safely start and stop this machine, especially in an emergency.

Keep the work area tidy and clean.

 Attempting to clear clutter from around the machine during use 

will reduce your concentration. Mess on the floor creates a trip hazard. Any liquid spilt on the floor 
could result in you slipping.

Find a suitable location.

 If the machine is bench mounted, the location should provide good natural 

light or artificial lighting as a replacement. Avoid damp and dust locations as it will have a negative 
effect on the machine’s performance. If the machine is portable do not expose the tool to rain. In all 
cases do not operate power tools near any flammable materials.

Keep bystanders away.

 Children, onlookers and passers by must be restricted from entering the work 

area for their own protection. The barrier must extend a suitable distance from the tool user.

Unplug and house all power tools that are not in use.

 A power tool should never be left unattended 

while connected to the power supply. They must be housed in a suitable location, away locked up and 
from children. This includes battery chargers.

Do not overload or misuse the tool.

 All tools are designed for a purpose and are limited to what they 

are capable of doing. Do not attempt to use a power tool (or adapt it in any way) for an application it is 
not designed for. Select a tool appropriate for the size of the job. Overloading a tool will result in tool 
failure and user injury. This covers the use of accessories.

Dress properly.

 Loose clothing, long hair and jewellery are all dangerous because they can become 

entangled in moving machinery. This can also result in parts of body being pulled into the machine. 
Clothing should be close fitted, with any long hair tired back and jewellery and neck ties removed. 
Footwear must be fully enclosed and have a non-slip sole.

Wear personal protective equipment (PPE).

 Dust, noise, vibration and swarf can all be dangerous if 

not suitably protected against. If the work involving the power tool creates dust or fumes wear a dust 
mask. Vibration to the hand, caused by operating some tools for longer periods must be protected 
against. Wear vibration reducing gloves and allow long breaks between uses. Protect against dust and 
swarf by wearing approved safety goggles or a face shield. These are some of the more common 
hazards and preventions, however, always find out what hazards are associated with the 
machine/work process and wear the most suitable protective equipment available.

Do not breathe contaminated air.

 If the work creates dust or fumes connect the machine (if possible) 

to an extraction system either locally or remotely. Working outdoors can also help if possible.

Move the machine as instructed.

 If the machine is hand held, do not carry it by the power supply 

cable. If the product is heavy, employ a second or third person to help move it safely or use a 
mechanical device. Always refer to the instructions for the correct method.

Do not overreach.

 Extending your body too far can result in a loss of balance and you falling. This 

could be from a height or onto a machine and will result in injury.

Maintain your tools correctly. 

A well maintained tool will do the job safely. Replace any damaged or 

missing parts immediately with original parts from the manufacturer. As applicable, keep blades sharp, 
moving parts clean, oiled or greased, handles clean, and emergency devices working.

Wait for the machine to stop.

 Unless the machine is fitted with a safety brake, some parts may 

continue to move due to momentum. Wait for all parts to stop, then unplug it from the power supply 
before making any adjustments, carrying out maintenance operations or just finishing using the tool.

9.   MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING

Regular inspection and cleaning reduces the necessity for maintenance operations and will keep 
your tool in good working condition.
The motor must be correctly ventilated during tool operation. For this reason avoid blocking the air 
inlets. After use disconnect the tool from the power supply and vacuum the ventilation slots.
If the replacement of the supply cord is necessary, this has to be done by the manufacturer or his 
agent in order to avoid a safety hazard.
Always unplug the power cable before any maintenance check on this saw.

Danger!

 Never put lubricants on the blade whilst it is spinning.

Warning!

 To avoid injury from unexpected starting or electrical shock, unplug the power cable 

before working on the saw.

Warning!

 For your safety, this saw is double insulated. To avoid electrical shock, fire or injury, use 

only parts identical to those identified in the parts list, reassemble exactly as original assembly to 
avoid electrical hazards.

Caution!

 

DO NOT use solvents on the product. 

They could make the plastic ‘cloudy’ and brittle.

Warning!

 When cleaning, unplug the saw from the outlet to avoid unexpected start-up or electrical 

shock.

9.1  SAWDUST

Periodically, sawdust will accumulate under the blade, base and around the switch mechanisms. 
This could cause difficulty in the movement of the blade when setting up cutting operations. 
Frequently vacuum up the sawdust.

9.2  RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES

Warning!

 To avoid injury from unsafe accessories, use only Draper accessories.

9.3  PROHIBITED ACCESSORIES

The use of any cutting tool except saw blades which meet the requirement under recommended 
accessories is prohibited. Ferrous and non-ferrous metal cutting and the use of abrasive wheels 
are prohibited.

9.4  CLEANING

After use, wipe off chips and dust adhering to the tool with a cloth or the like. Lubricate the sliding 
portions with machine oil to prevent rust.
To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs and, any other maintenance or adjustment 
should be performed by your nearest authorised service centre.
