pulling you and the helper into the spinning blade.
■
The cut-off piece must not be jammed or pressed
by any means against the spinning saw blade.
If
confined, i.e. using length stops, the cut-off piece could
get wedged against the blade and thrown violently.
■
Always use a clamp or a fixture designed to
properly support round material such as rods or
tubing.
Rods have a tendency to roll while being cut,
causing the blade to “bite” and pull the work with your
hand into the blade.
■
Let the blade reach full speed before contacting the
workpiece.
This will reduce the risk of the workpiece
being thrown.
■
If the workpiece or blade becomes jammed, turn the
mitre saw off. Wait for all moving parts to stop and
disconnect the plug from the power source and/
or remove the battery pack. Then work to free the
jammed material.
Continued sawing with a jammed
workpiece could cause loss of control or damage to the
mitre saw.
■
After finishing the cut, release the switch, hold the
saw head down and wait for the blade to stop before
removing the cut-off piece.
Reaching with your hand
near the coasting blade is dangerous.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR WOOD CUTTING
BLADE
■
Please read the manual and instructions carefully
before using the saw blade and the machine.
■
The product must be in good condition, the spindle
without deformation and vibration.
■
Do not use the product without the guards in position.
Keep guards in good working order and properly
maintained.
■
Ensure the operator is adequately trained in safety

■
Before using any accessory, consult the instruction
manual. The improper use of an accessory can cause

■
Observe the maximum speed marked on the saw
blade. Ensure the speed marked on the saw blade is at
least equal to the speed marked on the saw.
■
Always use blades with correct size and shape of
arbour holes. Blades that do not match the mounting
hardware of the saw will run eccentrically, causing loss
of control.
■
Do not use blades of larger or smaller diameter than
recommended. Do not use any spacers to make the
blade fit onto the spindle.
■
Check the tips of the saw blade for damage or abnormal
appearance before each use. Tips that are damaged or
loose can become flying objects in use and increase the
chance of personal injury.
■
Do not use cracked or distorted saw blades. Do not use
saw blades that are damaged or deformed.
■
Scrap the saw blade if damaged, deformed, distorted or
cracked, repairing is not permitted.
■
Do not use HSS blades.
■
Ensure the saw blade is mounted correctly, tighten the
arbor nut securely before use (tightening torque approx.
12-15 Nm).
■
Fastening screw and nuts shall be tightened using the
appropriate spanner, etc.
■
Extension of the spanner or tightening using hammer
blows is not permitted.
■
Make sure the blade and flanges are clean and the
recessed sides of the collar are against the blade.
■
Make sure the blade rotates in the correct direction.
■
Before work, make a dummy cut without the motor
turned on so the position of the blade, operation of
the guards with respect to other machine parts and
workpiece may be checked.
■
Never leave the product unattended.
■
Do not apply lubricants on the blade when it is running.
■
Never perform any cleaning or maintenance work when
the machine is still running and the head is not in the
rest position.
■
Never attempt to stop a machine in motion rapidly
by jamming a tool or other means against the blade,
serious accidents can be caused unintentionally in this
way.
■
Disconnect the product from the mains supply or
remove battery pack before changing blades or carrying
out maintenance.
■
Pay attention to blade packing and unpacking, it is easy
to be injured by the sharp blade tips.
■
Use a blade holder or wear gloves when handling a saw
blade.
■
Keep and store the blade in original packaging or other
suitable packaging, keep in dry conditions and away
from chemicals which may damage the blade.

■
Always wear safety goggles when using the product.
It is recommended to wear gloves for handling blades
and rough material, plus sturdy non slip shoes to
protect the feet from workpieces which may fall from
the cutting area.
■
Disconnect the product from the mains supply or remove
battery pack before carrying out any maintenance or
