We recommend the following:
Read the entire text of the operating instructions
manual before installation and start-up. This
operating instructions manual is expected to
help you familiarize yourself with the machine
and to use it as per the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions. The operating instructions manual con-
tains important instructions about how you can
work with the machine safely, economically and
properly, and about how you can avoid risks,
repair costs, reduce downtime and increase the
reliability and life span of the machine.
In addition to the safety provisions of this opera-
ting instructions manual, you must also observe
the specifications of your country
applicable to the operation of the machine
without fail.
Keep the operating instructions manual in a
plastic cover near the machine to protect it
against pollution and humidity. It must be read
carefully and observed by
all operators before starting work on the machi-
ne. Only persons who are trained to operate the
machine and have been instructed about the
associated risks may work on the machine. The
required minimum age must be observed.
In addition to the safety instructions listed in this
operating instructions manual and the special
regulations of your country, the universally reco-
gnized technical rules must also be observed.
General safety instructions
• Forward the safety instructions to all per-
sons who work on the machine.
• Use the machine only if it is in a flawless
condition technically, and only after lear-
ning about its proper and safe use, as well
as about the risks involved, complying with
the operating instructions! Get faults that
compromise safety in particular rectified
immediately
• Only tools that correspond to the European
Standard EN 847-1 may be used.
• All safety- and risk instructions on the
machine
• Keep all safety and risk instructions on
the machine in complete and readable
condition.
• The circular table saw may not be used to
cut firewood.
• Caution during work: Risk of physical injury
to fingers and hands from the rotary cutting
machine.
• Please ensure that the machine is stable
and that it is installed on firm ground.
• Check the mains power cables. Do not use
any faulty cables.
• Keep children away from the machine con-
nected to the power supply.
• The age of the operator should be minimum
18 years. Trainees must be minimum 16 ye-
ars old, but they can work on the machine
only under supervision.
• The attention of the persons working on the
machine should not be diverted
• If a second person is working at the circular
table saw to remove the cut workpieces,
the machine must be equipped with a table
extension. The second person should be
positioned only at the pick-up end of the
table extension.
• Keep the operator console of the machine
free of wood shavings and chips.
• Wear tight-fitting clothes. Remove orna -
ments, rings and wrist-watches.
• Observe the direction of rotation of the
motor – see the electrical connection.
• The safety devices on the machine are not
to be dismantled or disabled.
• Conversion-, adjustment-, measurement-
and cleaning jobs are to be performed only
after the motor is switched off. Disconnect
the power plug and wait for the rotating tool
to stop.
• For troubleshooting, switch the machine
off and disconnect the power plug from the
mains socket.
• The machine must be connected to a va-
cuum cleaner during all operations. Please
observe the “Proper use according to
manufacturer instructions“ for this.
• When working on the machine, all safety
devices and covers must be installed.
• Install only well-sharpened, crack-free and
not-deformed saw blades.
• Circular saw blades made of high-perfor-
mance fast steel should not be installed.
• The safety devices on the machine are not
to be dismantled or disabled.
• The splitting wedge is an important safety
device which guides the workpiece and
prevents the closure of the saw kerf behind
the saw blade, and the rebounding of the
workpiece. Pay attention to the splitting
wedge thickness, see the numbers pun-
ched on the splitting wedge. The splitting
wedge may not be thinner than the saw
blade body and not thicker than its saw kerf
width.
• Lower the covering hood on the workpiece
during each operation
• The covering hood must be horizontal
during each operation
• During longitudinal cutting of small workpi-
eces – smaller than 120 mm - use the slide
rod without fail. The slide rod must be used
to prevent working with the hands in the
vicinity of the saw blade.
• Switch the machine off to rectify faults or to
remove jammed wood pieces. Disconnect
the power plug.
• Replace the table insert in case of lined
saw crevices. Disconnect the power
plug.
• Conversion-, adjustment-, measurement-
and cleaning jobs are to be performed only
after the motor is switched off. Disconnect
the power plug.
• Before start-up, the machine should be
connected to a vacuum cleaner with a
flexible, non-inflammable suction pipe.
The vacuum cleaner must get activated
automatically when the circular table saw is
switched on.
• Switch the motor off while leaving the work-
place.
Disconnect the power plug.
• Even if there is a slight position change,
disconnect the machine from any external
power source. Reconnect the machine
properly to the mains power supply again
before restart.
• Only electricians should be allowed to per-
form installation, repair and maintenance
jobs on the electrical equipment.
• All protection and safety devices must be
reinstalled immediately after the repair and
maintenance jobs are over.
• Do not expose electrical tools to rain.
• Do not use electrical tools in humid and wet
environments.
• Ensure good illumination of the work area.
• Do not use electrical tools at places where
there is risk of fire or explosion.
• Avoid body contact with earthed parts (e.g.,
pipes, radiators, electric stoves, cooling
devices).
• Unused electric tools should be stored at
a dry, elevated or sealed place outside the
reach of children.
• Do not pull the cable to disconnect the po-
wer plug from the mains socket. Protect the
cable from heat, oil and sharp edges.
• Use clamping devices, slide handles or a
slide rod to hold the workpiece in place.
It can be held safer this way than with the
hand.
• Keep the handles dry, clean and free of oil
and grease.
• While inserting the power plug into the
mains socket, ensure that the switch is off.
• Use only an approved and appropriately
marked extension cable in the open.
• Do not use electric tools in which the switch
cannot be activated and deactivated
• Circular saws should not be used for split-
ting (groove ending in the tool).
• Use only saw blades whose maximum
permissible speed is not less than the ma-
ximum spindle rotation speed of the circular
table saw and the material to be cut.
• When transporting the machine, use only
transportation equipment and never use
protective devices for handling or transport.
• During transportation, the topmost section
of the saw blade must be covered, e.g.,
with the protective device. Purchase acces-
sories only from your specialised dealer.
• The circuit breaker (16A) with RCD module
(30mA) and overvoltage protection devices
