When working with a long workpiece, use an additional support such as a saw blade to prevent the blade from
grabbing the work.
When cutting round wood, use clamps that prevent the workpiece from turning on the table.
There must be no nails or other foreign bodies in the part of the workpiece you want to cut.
Never load the machine so much that it slows down and overheats.
Never saw several workpieces simultaneously.
Never remove loose splinters, chips or jammed pieces of wood while the saw blade is running.
To rectify faults or remove jammed pieces of wood, always switch off the machine first and remove the mains plug.
Adjustments, measurements and cleaning jobs are to be performed only when the motor is switched off and the
mains plug removed.
All guards and safety devices have to be refitted immediately after completion of any repairs or maintenance.
The machine may only be used in a closed room when in conjunction with a suitable vacuum extraction system.
The saw must be connected to a 240V socket with a minimum 10A circuit.
Unless otherwise stated in these instructions, damaged safety devices and parts must be repaired or replaced by an
authorised service facility.
This tool complies with relevant safety regulations. Repairs are to be carried out only by qualified electricians at
authorised service centres, using original replacement parts. There is a risk of injury if this not observed.
Rebating or grooving should not be carried out unless suitable guarding, such as a tunnel guard, is fitted above the
table saw.
Saws shall not be used for slotting (stopped groove).
Use the push stick when required. Always use a push stick for ripping narrow stock. Refer to rippling applications in
this instruction manual where use of the push stick is covered in detail.
Always use the saw blade guard and riving knife for every operation, including through sawing. Through sawing
operations are those in which the blade cuts completely through the workpiece when ripping or crosscutting.
Always hold the work firmly against the mitre fence or rip fence.
Never perform any operations "free hand". Always use either the mitre fence or the rip fence to position and guide
the work.
Never stand or have any parts of your body in line with the path of the saw blade.
Keep your hands out of the line of the saw blade.
Move the rip fence out of the way when crosscutting.
Feed the work into the blade AGAINST the direction of rotation only.
