If you use a cable reel, the complete cable must
be pulled off the reel.
n
Check the power cable. Never use a faulty or
damaged power cable.
n
Operators have to be at least 18 years of age.
Trainees of at least 16 years of age are allowed
to use the machine under supervision.
n
Keep your workplace clean of wood scrap and
any unnecessary objects.
n
Persons working on the machine should not be
distracted.
n
Note the direction of rotation of the motor and
saw blade.
n
After you have switched off the motor, never
slow down the saw blade by applying pressure to
its side.
n
Only fit blades which are well sharpened and
have no cracks or deformations.
n
Never dismantle the machineʼs safety devices or
render them inoperative.
n
Faulty saw blades must be replaced
immediately.
n
Never use saw blades which do not comply with
the data specified in this manual.
n
It is imperative to make sure that all devices
which cover the saw blade are in good working
order.
n
Important:
It is prohibited to use this saw to
make plunge cuts.
n
Damaged or faulty safety devices have to be
replaced immediately.
n
The splitter is an important safety device. Not
only does it guide the workpiece, it also prevents
the kerf closing behind the blade so that there is
no kickback from the workpiece. Note the
thickness of the splitter. The splitter should never
be thinner than the saw blade body or thicker
than the width of its kerf.
n
The guard hood has to be lowered over the
workpiece for each cut.
n
Be sure to use a push stick when slitting narrow
workpieces (smaller than 120 mm in width).
n
Never cut workpieces which are too small to hold
securely in your hand.
n
It is imperative for the parallel stop to be clamped
on the right-hand side of the blade whenever you
cut narrow workpieces to size.
n
Always stand to the side of the saw blade when
working with the saw.
n
Never load the machine so much that it cuts out.
n
Always press the workpiece firmly against the
saw table.
n
Make sure that off-cuts do not catch on the saw
blade crown. Risk of catapulting!
n
Refit all guards and safety devices immediately
after you have completed any repairs or
maintenance work.
n
Be sure to observe the safety information and
operating and maintenance instructions issued
by the manufacturer, as well as the dimensions
listed in the Technical Data.
n
It is imperative to observe the accident
prevention regulations in force in your area as
well as all other generally recognized rules of
safety.
n
Note the information published by your
professional associations.
n
Connect up the dust extraction system on all
jobs. The operator has to be informed about the
conditions with an influence on dust
development, e.g. the type of material being
processed (source and collection of the dust),
the significance of local separation
arrangements, and the correct setting of hoods,
baffle plates and guides.
n
Operate the saw only with a suitable vacuum
extraction system or a standard industrial
vacuum cleaner.
n
Never remove loose splinters, chips or jammed
pieces of wood when the saw blade is running.
n
To rectify faults or remove jammed pieces of
wood, always switch off the machine first. Pull
the power plug!
n
If the sawing gap is worn, replace the table
insert. Pull the power plug!
n
This electric tool complies with the pertinent
safety regulations.
n
Keep your work area clean and tidy.
Untidy and unlit work areas can result in
accidents.
n
Keep the tool out of the rain and away from
