ENE004-1
Intended use
The tool is intended for accurate straight and miter
cutting in wood. With appropriate saw blades, aluminum
can also be sawed.
ENF002-2
Power supply
The tool should be connected only to a power supply of
the same voltage as indicated on the nameplate, and can
only be operated on single-phase AC supply. They are
double-insulated and can, therefore, also be used from
sockets without earth wire.
For public low-voltage distribution systems of
between 220 V and 250 V
For model LS1040
ENF100-1
Switching operations of electric apparatus cause voltage
fluctuations. The operation of this device under
unfavorable mains conditions can have adverse effects
to the operation of other equipment. With a mains
impedance equal or less than 0.29 Ohms it can be
presumed that there will be no negative effects. The
mains socket used for this device must be protected with
a fuse or protective circuit breaker having slow tripping
characteristics.
For model LS1040F
ENF100-1
Switching operations of electric apparatus cause voltage
fluctuations. The operation of this device under
unfavorable mains conditions can have adverse effects
to the operation of other equipment. With a mains
impedance equal or less than 0.34 Ohms it can be
presumed that there will be no negative effects. The
mains socket used for this device must be protected with
a fuse or protective circuit breaker having slow tripping
characteristics.

WARNING Read all safety warnings, instructions,
illustrations and specifications provided with this
power tool.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below
may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future
reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated
(cordless) power tool.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR MITRE SAWS
1.
Mitre saws are intended to cut wood or woodlike
products, they cannot be used with abrasive cut-
off wheels for cutting ferrous material such as
bars, rods, studs, etc.
Abrasive dust causes
moving parts such as the lower guard to jam. Sparks
from abrasive cutting will burn the lower guard, the
kerf insert and other plastic parts.
2.
Use clamps to support the workpiece whenever
possible. If supporting the workpiece by hand,
you must always keep your hand at least
100 mm from either side of the saw blade. Do not
use this saw to cut pieces that are too small to
be securely clamped or held by hand.
If your
hand is placed too close to the saw blade, there is
an increased risk of injury from blade contact.
3.
The workpiece must be stationary and clamped
or held against both the fence and the table. Do
not feed the workpiece into the blade or cut
“freehand” in any way.
Unrestrained or moving
workpieces could be thrown at high speeds, causing
injury.
4.
Never cross your hand over the intended line of
cutting either in front or behind the saw blade.
Supporting the workpiece “cross handed” i.e.
holding the workpiece to the right of the saw blade
with your left hand or vice versa is very dangerous.
000030
5.
Do not reach behind the fence with either hand
closer than 100 mm from either side of the saw
blade, to remove wood scraps, or for any other
reason while the blade is spinning.
The proximity
of the spinning saw blade to your hand may not be
obvious and you may be seriously injured.
6.
Inspect your workpiece before cutting. If the
workpiece is bowed or warped, clamp it with the
outside bowed face toward the fence. Always
make certain that there is no gap between the
workpiece, fence and table along the line of the
cut.
Bent or warped workpieces can twist or shift
and may cause binding on the spinning saw blade
while cutting. There should be no nails or foreign
objects in the workpiece.
7.
Do not use the saw until the table is clear of all
tools, wood scraps, etc., except for the
workpiece.
Small debris or loose pieces of wood or
other objects that contact the revolving blade can be
thrown with high speed.
8.
Cut only one workpiece at a time.
Stacked
multiple workpieces cannot be adequately clamped
or braced and may bind on the blade or shift during
cutting.
9.
Ensure the mitre saw is mounted or placed on a
level, firm work surface before use.
A level and
firm work surface reduces the risk of the mitre saw
becoming unstable.
