22. Have your tool repaired by a
qualified person
• This electric tool complies with
the relevant safety rules. Repairs
should only be carried out by
qualified persons using original
spare parts, otherwise this may
result in considerable danger to
the user.
SAW BLADES
1. The maximum speed of the saw
blade must always be equal to or
greater than the no-load speed of
the table saw as specified on the
rating plate.
2. Do not use saw blades which are
damaged or deformed.
3. Only use saw blades
recommended by the
manufacturer and which are the
exact bore and diameter required
for this machine. Do not use any
spacers to make a blade fit onto
the spindle. Use only the blades
specified in this manual, which
comply with EN 847-1.
4. Clean the spindle, flanges
(especially the installing surface)
and hex nut before installing the
blade. Poor installation may cause
vibration/wobbling or slippage of
the blade.
5. Take care that the selection of the
saw blade is suitable for the
material to be cut.
6. Make sure the blade is not
contacting the riving knife or
workpiece before the switch is
turned on.
7. Wear gloves when handling saw
blades and rough material. Saw
blades shall be carried in a holder
whenever practicable.
KICKBACK
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a
pinched, bound or misaligned saw
blade, it causes the workpiece to be
ejected from the tool back towards
the operator. Kickbacks can lead to
serious personal injury.
You can avoid kickbacks by:
a. keeping the blade sharp,
b. keeping the rip fence parallel to
the blade,
c. keeping the riving knife and
blade guard in place and
operating properly,
d. by not releasing the workpiece
until you have pushed it all the
way past the blade,
e. not ripping a workpiece that is
twisted or warped or does not
have a straight edge to guide
along the fence.
If you do not have a clear
understanding of kickback and how it
occurs, DO NOT operate this table
saw!
REMAINING HAZARDS
The machine has been built in
accordance with recognized safety
rules. Some remaining hazards may still
exist.
• The rotating saw blade can
cause injuries to fingers and
hands if the work piece is
incorrectly fed.
• Thrown work pieces can lead to
injury if the work piece is not
properly secured or fed, such as
working without a limit stop.
