Do not use High Speed Steel (HSS) blades. Ensure
that the correct blade is selected for the material
being cut.
The push stick or push block should always be stored
with the machine when not in use.
Connect the saw to a dust collection device when
sawing wood. The operator should be informed of the
factors that influence exposure to dust e.g. type of
material being cut and the importance of local
extraction (capture or source) and the proper
adjustment hoods/baffles/chutes.
Use a proper extension cord. Make sure any
extension cord is in good condition. When using an
extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to
carry the current your machine will draw. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage
resulting in loss of power and possible overheating.
Always use safety glasses. Also use a face or dust
mask if the cutting operation is dusty. Everyday
eyeglasses only have impact resistant lenses, they are
NOT safety glasses.
Maintain tools with care. Keep tools sharp and clean
for best and safest performance.
Disconnect from the power supply before servicing,
cleaning or and when changing accessories, such as
blades.
Check for damaged parts. Before further use of the
tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should be
carefully checked to determine that it will operate
properly and perform its intended function - check for
alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts, mounting, and any other conditions
that may affect its operation. A guard or other part
that is damaged should be properly repaired or
replaced.
Keep hands out of the path of the saw blade.
Never reach around the saw blade.
Turn off machine and wait for saw blade to stop
before making any fence adjustments.
Never pull or carry the tool by the power cord.
Carrying or pulling the tool by the power cord could
cause damage to the insulation or the wire
connections resulting in the possibility of electric
shock or fire.
When transporting the machine use a transportation
device.
Never use the guards for handling or transportation.
During transportation the upper part of the saw blade
must be lowered fully and covered by the guard.
All operators using this machine must read the
instructions and familiarize themselves with the
machines workings.
Never leave the saw running and unattended. Do not
leave the saw until the saw has been switched OFF,
and the blade has come to a complete halt.
Only use saw blades for which the maximum
permissible speed is not lower than the maximum
spindle speed of table saws and which are suitable for
the material to be cut.
Do not cut rebates or grooves without fitting a suitable
guard, e.g. a tunnel-type guard, over the saw table.
Circular saws must not be used for slotting jobs
(cutting grooves which end in the workpiece).
The floor around the machine must be level, clean and
free of loose particles, such as chips and cutting
residues.
Always stand to the side of the saw blade when
working with the saw.
Do not remove any cutting residues or other parts of
workpieces from the cutting zone while the machine is
running and the saw unit is not at rest.
Make sure that the machine is always secured on a
workbench or a table if at all possible.
Support long workpieces (e.g. with a roller table) to
prevent them sagging at the end of a cut.
Attention! Never remove loose splinters, chips or
jammed pieces of wood while the saw blade is
running. Switch off the machine to troubleshoot or
remove jammed pieces of wood. - Disconnect the
main power plug.
Refitting, including adjusting and measuring works,
and cleaning must be carried out only when the motor
is switched off. - Disconnect the main power plug.
Before switching on again, ensure that keys and
adjustment tools have been removed.
WARNING! This electric tool generates an
electromagnetic field during operation. This field can
impair active or passive medical implants under
certain conditions. In order to prevent the risk of
serious or deadly injuries, we recommend that
persons with medical implants consult with their
physician and the manufacturer of the medical implant
prior to operating the electric tool.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE HANDLING OF
SAW BLADES
Only use insertion tools if you have mastered their
use.
Observe the maximum speed. The maximum speed
specified on the insertion tool may not be exceeded. If
specified, observe the speed range.
Observe the motor / saw blade direction of rotation.
Do not use any insertion tools with cracks. Sort out
cracked insertion tools. Repairs are not permitted.
