  Only for EU countries 

Do  not  dispose  of  electric  equipment 
together with household waste material! 
In  observance  of  European  Directive 
2002/96/EC  on  waste  electric  and 
electronic 

equipment 

and 

its 

implementation  in  accordance  with 
national  law,  electric  equipment  that 
have reached the end of their life must 
be collected separately and returned to 
an 

environmentally 

compatible 

recycling facility. 

ENE028-1 

Intended use

 

The  tool  is  intended  for  performing  lengthways  and 
crossways  straight  cuts  and  mitre  cuts  with  angles  in 
wood while in firm contact with the workpiece. 

ENF002-1 

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  in  accordance  with  European 
Standard and can, therefore, also be used from sockets

ENA100-1 

 

GENERAL SAFETY RULES 

WARNING! Read all instructions.

  Failure  to  follow  all 

instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire 
and/or serious injury. The term "power tool" in all of the 
warnings  listed  below  refers  to  your  mains-operated 
(corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power 

tool. 

 

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. 

Work Area 

1. 

Keep work area clean and well lit.

 Cluttered and 

dark areas invite accidents. 

2. 

Do  not  operate  power  tools  in  explosive 
atmospheres,  such  as  in  the  presence  of 
flammable  liquids,  gases  or  dust.

  Power  tools 

create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes. 

3. 

Keep  children  and  bystanders  away  while 
operating  a  power  tool.

  Distractions  can  cause 

you to lose control. 

Electrical Safety 

4. 

Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never 
modify  the  plug  in  any  way.  Do  not  use  any 
adapter  plugs with  earthed  (grounded)  power 
tools.

 Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will 

reduce risk of electric shock. 

5. 

Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded 
surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and 
refrigerators.

  There  is  an  increased  risk  of 

electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded. 

6. 

Do  not  expose  power  tools  to  rain  or  wet 
conditions.

  Water  entering  a  power  tool  will 

increase the risk of electric shock. 

7. 

Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for 
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. 
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or 
moving  parts.

  Damaged  or  entangled  cords 

increase the risk of electric shock. 

8. 

When operating a power tool outdoors, use an 
extension cord suitable for outdoor use.

 Use of 

a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of 
electric shock. 

Personal Safety 

9. 

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
