ENGLISH
cooking stoves, refrigerators when
operating this machine.
Do not use the power cable for pur-
poses it is not intended for.
A
Risk of personal injury and
crushing by moving parts!
Do not operate the machine without
installed guards.
Always keep sufficient distance to
the saw blade. Use suitable feeding
aids, if necessary. Keep sufficient
distance to driven components
when operating the electric
machine.
Wait for the saw blade to come to a
complete standstill before removing
cutoffs, scrap, etc., from the work
area.
Never try to slow down or stop the
saw blade by pushing the workpiece
against the saw blade from the side.
Ensure the machine is disconnected
from power before servicing.
Ensure that when switching on (e.g.
after servicing) no tools or loose
parts are left on or in the machine.
Turn power off if the machine is not
used.
A
Cutting hazard, even with the
cutting tool at standstill!
Wear gloves when changing cutting
tools.
Store the saw blade(s) in a safe
place and in such a manner that
nobody can get hurt.
A
Risk of kickback (workpiece is
caught by the saw blade and thrown
against the operator):
Always work with a properly set riv-
ing knife.
The riving knife and the saw blade
used must match: the riving knife
should be thinner than the kerf, but
thicker than the saw blade body.
Do not jam workpieces.
Make sure the saw blade is suitable
for the workpiece material.
Cut thin or thin-walled workpieces
only with fine-toothed saw blades.
Always use sharp saw blades.
If in doubt, check workpiece for
inclusion of foreign matter (e.g. nails
or screws).
Cut only workpieces that have
dimensions which allow them to be
safely and securely held during cut-
ting.
Never cut several workpieces at the
same time – and also no bundles
containing several individual pieces.
Risk of personal injury if individual
pieces are caught by the saw blade
uncontrolled.
Remove small cutoffs, scrap, etc.,
from the work area – when doing so,
the saw blade must be at a com-
plete standstill.
c
Drawing-in/trapping hazard!
Ensure that no parts of the body or
clothing can be caught and drawn in
by rotating components (
no
neck-
ties,
no
gloves,
no
loose-fitting
clothes; contain long hair with hair-
net).
Never cut any workpieces which
contain
ropes,
strings,
cords,
cables or
wires, or to which any of the
above are attached.
A
Hazard generated by insuffi-
cient personal protection gear!
Wear hearing protection.
Wear safety glasses.
Wear dust mask.
Wear suitable work clothes.
When working outdoors wearing of
non-slip shoes is recommended.
A
Risk of injury by inhaled wood
dust!
Some types of wood dust (e.g.
beech, oak, ash) may cause cancer
when inhaled. Work only with a suit-
able dust collector attached to the
saw. The dust collector must comply
with the specifications stated in the
Technical Specifications.
Minimise the amount of wood dust
escaping from the machine into the
environs:
remove wood dust deposits from
the work area (do not blow
away!);
repair any leaks on the dust col-
lector;
keep your work area well venti-
lated at all times.
A
Hazard generated by modifica-
tion of the machine or use of parts
not tested and approved by the manu-
facturer!
Strictly follow these instructions
when assembling the machine.
Use only parts approved by the
manufacturer. This applies espe-
cially to:
saw blades (see "Available
Accessories" for stock-nos.);
safety devices (see “Spare parts
list” for stock nos.).
Do not change any parts.
A
Hazard generated by tool
defects!
Keep machine and accessories in
good repair. Follow the maintenance
instructions.
Before every use of this machine,
check for possible damage: before
operating the machine all safety
devices, protective guards or slightly
damaged parts need to be carefully
checked to see if they are fully oper-
ational as specified. Check that all
moving parts operate smoothly and
without jamming. All parts must be
correctly installed and meet all con-
ditions necessary for a proper oper-
ation of the machine.
Any damaged parts or protection
devices must be repaired or
replaced by a qualified specialist.
Have damaged switches replaced
by a service centre. Do not operate
machine if the switch cannot be
turned ON or OFF.
Keep handles free of oil and grease.
A
Risk of injury by noise!
Wear hearing protection.
Make sure the riving knife is not
bend. A bent riving knife will push
the workpiece against the side of the
saw blade, causing noise.
A
Danger from blocking work-
pieces or workpiece parts!
If blockage occurs:
1. Switch machine OFF.
2. Unplug mains cable.
3. Wear gloves.
4. Clear the blockage using a suitable
tool.
