l) Where workpieces are wider or longer
than the table top, make sure that you
provide appropriate support for the work-
piece, e.g.
in the form of table extensions or
sawing trestles. Workpieces which are longer
or wider than the table of the miter saw could
tilt if they are not supported securely. If a
piece of wood which has been cut o
ff
or the
workpiece tilts, it could push the bottom guard
hood up or be catapulted out by the rotating
saw blade out of control.
m) Do not use the assistance of another per-
son as a substitute for a table extension
or additional support.
Instable support for
the workpiece could cause the saw blade
to jam. In addition, the workpiece could also
move while the cut is being performed and
pull you and your helper into the rotating bla-
de.
n) The piece which has been cut o
ff
must
not be pressed against the rotating saw
blade.
If space is restricted, e.g. if length
stops are used, the piece which has been cut
o
ff
could get wedged in the blade and then
hurled out out of control.
o) The equipment is not allowed to be used
for cutting round material.
Rods or poles
have a tendency to roll away during cutting,
which could result in the blade “catching” and
the workpiece in your hand being drawn into
the blade.
p) Allow the blade to reach its full before
you cut in the workpiece.
This will reduce
the risk of the workpiece being catapulted
away.
q) If the workpiece gets jammed or the bla-
de gets blocked, switch o
ff
the miter saw.
Wait until all moving parts have come to a
standstill, pull out the power plug and/or take
out the rechargeable battery. Then remove
the jammed material. If you continue sawing
when such a blockage occurs, this could lead
to a loss of control or damage to the miter
saw.
r) Release the switch when the cut has been
completed, hold the saw head down and
wait until the blade has come to a stand-
still before you remove the piece which
has been cut o
ff
.
It is extremely dangerous
to reach with your hand into the area anywhe-
re near the blade while it is slowing down.
s) Hold the handle very
fi
rmly if you want
to make an incomplete cut or if you re-
lease the switch before the saw head has
reached its bottom position.
The braking
e
ff
ect of the saw could cause the saw head to
be pulled down with a jerk, leading to a risk of
injury.
Additional safety precautions:
•
Use saw blades which are designed for
the purpose and for the material being
cut.
•
Use only blades which are recommended
by the manufacturer and comply with EN
847-1.
•
Use only blades with diameters, hole dia-
meters and tooth pitches which conform
with the technical data set out in the ori-
ginal operating instructions.
•
Use only blades with rotating speeds
shown on the blade which are equal to or
higher than the rotating speed shown on
the power tool.
•
Do not use saw blades that are blunt,
bent or damaged.
•
Check the direction of rotation whenever
you change the saw blade.
There are ar-
rows marked on the machine and saw blade
to show the direction of rotation. They must
match.
•
Wear gloves to avoid getting cut when
you transport and change the saw bla-
des.
Whenever practicable, saw blades must
be carried in a container.
•
Before use, check that the safety guard
for the saw blade is in proper working
order.
If it does not close automatically or
is damaged, do not use the equipment any
more. In this case, contact the manufacturer
or an authorized customer service outlet to
get it professionally repaired.
•
If a switch is damaged or defective, arran-
ge for it to be replaced by the manufac-
turer or an authorized customer service
outlet.
•
Replace worn or damaged table inserts
in the saw table with a replacement part,
or arrange for them to be replaced by the
manufacturer or an authorized customer
service outlet.
•
Only allow repairs to the equipment to
be carried out by the manufacturer or an
authorized customer service outlet using
original parts, otherwise the user may
suffer an accident.
•
Connect a dust extractor to the extractor
adapter on the machine.
•
Make sure that there is adequate stabi-
lity by always securing the machine to a
