Safety regulations
• Give these safety regulations to all persons who work on the machine.
•
Do not use this saw to cut fire wood.
• The machine is equipped with a safety switch to prevent it being switched on again
accidentally after a power failure.
•
Before you use the machine for the first time, check that the voltage marked on
the rating plate is the same as your mains voltage.
• If you use a cable reel, the complete cable has to be pulled off the reel.
• Persons working on the machine should not be distracted.
• Note the direction of rotation of the motor and blade.
•
Never dismantle the machineʼs safety devices or put them out of operation.
• Never cut workpieces which are too small to hold securely in your hand.
• Never remove loose splinters, chips or jammed pieces of wood when the saw
blade is running.
• It is imperative to observe the accident prevention regulations in force in your area
as well as all other generally recognized rules of safety.
• Note the information published by your professional associations.
• Adjustable protective devices have to be adjusted as close as possible to the
workpiece.
• Important! Support long workpieces (e.g. with a roller table) to prevent them sag-
ging at the end of a cut.
• Make sure the saw band guard (4) is in its lower position when the saw is being
transported.
• Safety guards are not to be used to move or misuse the machine.
• Blades that are misshapen or damaged in any way must not be used.
• If the table insert is worn, replace it.
• Never operate the machine if either the door protecting the blade or the detach-
able safety device are open.
• Ensure that the choice of blade and the selected speed are suitable for the ma-
terial to be cut.
• Do not begin cleaning the blade until it has come to a complete standstill.
• For straight cuts of small workpieces against the longitudinal limit stop the push
stick has to be used.
• The saw band guard should be in its lowest position close to the bench during
transport.
• For miter cuts when the table is tilted, the parallel stop must be positioned on the
lower part of the table.
• When cutting round timber, use a suitable holding device to prevent the work-
piece turning.
