twisting of the workpiece.

Safety precautions
–
Warning! Do not use damaged or deformed saw
blades.
–
Replace a worn table insert.
–
Only use saw blades recommended by the manufac-
turer which conform to EN 847-1.
–
Make sure that a suitable saw blade for the material
to be cut is selected.
– Wear suitable personal protective equipment. This
includes:
– Hearing protection to avoid the risk of becoming
hearing impaired,
–
Respiratory protection to avoid the risk of inhaling
harmful dust,
–
Wear gloves when handling saw blades and
rough materials. Carry saw blades in a container
whenever practical.
–
Wear goggles. Sparks generated during work
or splinters, chippings and dust coming from the
device can lead to loss of eyesight.
–
Connect a dust collecting device to the electric tool
when sawing wood. The emission of dust is influ-
enced, among other things, by the type of material
to be processed, the significance of local separation
(collection or source) and the correct setting of the
hood/guide plates/guides.
– Do not use saw blades made of high-speed alloy
steel (HSS steel).
