4. General Safety
Warning: Read all safety considerations.
Failure to follow this set of guidelines can result
in unwarranted damage to the machine and
serious injury to the operator and bystanders.
Save all warnings and instructions for future
reference.
4.1 Intended Use
• Table saw and the workpiece guide equipment
supplied with it are intended to be used
exclusively for the following purposes:
- Laminated and non-laminated board materials
(e.g. chipboard, coreboard, MDF board,...)
- Solid wood
- Gypsum plasterboard, Cardboard, Veneer with
a suitable clamping device
- Dimensionally stable plastics (thermoset
plastics, thermoplastics).Sawing these materials
does not normally involve any risks in respect of
dust, chips, and thermal degradation products.
Tools:
• The chosen saw blade must be suitable both
for the specific work cycle and for the specific
material.
• Only circular blades made of tungsten carbide
and have a diameter of 250 mm, arbor size 30
mm are allowed to be used.
• Saw blades made of high-alloy high-speed
steel (HSS) or chrome are not allowed to be
used.
• Saw blades and their fixing devices shall
conform to EN 847-1:2013.
Site of installation/use:
• The machine is not suitable for use outdoors,
or in rooms that are subject to moisture or the
risk of explosions.
• The intended use of the machine involves
connection to suitable dust collection.
• The intended ambient temperature used of the
machine: +10 °C to +35 °C.
• The intended altitude used of the machine :
shall be at altitudes up to 1000 m above mean
sea level.
• The intended Relative humidity used of the
machine : not exceed 50% at 35°C.
• Intended use also involves compliance with
our specified operating, maintenance and repair
conditions and the safety information contained
in the operating instructions.
• The table saw may only be used, set up and
maintained by persons who are familiar with the
machine and aware of the dangers.
• The pertinent accident prevention regulations
as well as any other generally recognized
technical safety and industrial medicine rules
must be observed.
• Repair work must be carried out by our own
customer service or by an organization that we
have authorized. Only original spare parts are
allowed to be used for this. we will assume no
warranty for any damage that is caused by using
non-original spare parts.
Warning: The machine is prohibited to be used in
a potentially explosive atmosphere!
4.2 Work Area
• Keep all children and untrained persons away
from the machine. Do not allow bystanders to
touch the machine or power cord. All people but
the operator should be away from the work area.
• Keep work area clean and well lit. A cluttered
area can limit the range of motion needed by the
machine and cause serious injury to the operator
or damage to the machine.
• Make sure the work area is child-proof
and inaccessible to untrained persons. Use
padlocks where possible and keep all machines
unplugged when not in use.
• Do not keep or place tools in outdoor, damp, or
dangerous environments. Never operate the tool
under wet or damp conditions; there is a serious
risk of electrical shock. Exposing this product to
those environments may result in damage to the
tool and operator injury. Do not use tool in the
presence of flammable liquids or gasses.
• Do not operate machine in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Machine create
sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
4.3 Personal Safety
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power tool. do
not use a power tool while you are tired or under
the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
A moment of inattention while operating power
tools may result in serious personal injury.
• Use personal protective equipment. always
wear eye protection. Protective equipment such
as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard
hat or hearing protection used for appropriate
conditions will reduce personal injuries.
• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the
switch is in the off-position before connecting to
power source and/or battery pack, picking up or
carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your
finger on the switch or energizing power tools
that have the switch on invites accidents.
• Remove any adjusting key or wrench before
turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may
result in personal injury.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. This enables better control
of the power tool in unexpected situations.
• Dress properly. do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair and clothing away from
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long
hair can be caught in moving parts.
• If devices are provided for the connection of
dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure
these are connected and properly used. Use of
dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
• Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use
of tools allow you to become complacent and
ignore tool safety principles. A careless action
can cause severe injury within a fraction of a
second.
• Know your machine. Read and understand the
owner’s manual and labels affixed to the tool.
Learn its application and limitations as well as
the specific potential hazards peculiar to this
tool.
• Use safety goggles. Some machines require
additional face shielding than offered by safety
goggles alone. Know your machine and the
proper PPE to use.
• Use ear protection. Some machines operate at
very high noise levels. To prevent harm, be sure
to use ear protection always.
• Guard against electric shock. Prevent all bodily
contact with grounded surfaces and parts of the
machine that pose electrical threats.
• Avoid accidental starting for machines without
magnetic or automatic shut-off switches.
Make sure the tool is in the off position prior to
plugging it in.
• Keep guards in place. Machine parts like
riving knifes, blade guard, cutter-head guards,
feather boards, push sticks, etc. are designed
to minimize possible injury. Keep those parts
in place unless a safer means of operation is
available.
• Be alert always and give 100% of your
attention to the operation of this tool. Failure
to do so can result in serious injury to both the
operator and bystanders.
• Do not rely on guards. The operator of this tool
is 100% responsible for his/her own safety. The
guards and safety components sold with this
machine are not enough to ensure safety.
• Check for damaged parts. Before every use
of this tool, makes sure the machine and any
components of the machine are not damaged
or at the risk of being damaged. If a damaged
part is discovered, stop immediately and put the
machine out of service until the part is replaced.
Warning: All repairs should be done by trained
repairmen. Contact your supplier or a competent
repair service.
Warning: Use only supplier Tools or compatible
and marked replacement parts. All others may
cause damage or harm.
Warning: Use only manufacturer-recommended
accessories. Some accessories may cause
damage or harm.
4.4 Tool Use
• Do not force the power tool. use the correct
power tool for your application. The correct
power tool will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.
• Do not use the power tool if the switch does not
turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must
be repaired.
