5 ENGLISH
7.
Inspect your workpiece before cutting. If the
workpiece is bowed or warped, clamp it with
the outside bowed face toward the fence.
Always make certain that there is no gap
between the workpiece, fence and table along
the line of the cut.
Bent or warped workpieces
can twist or shift and may cause binding on the
spinning saw blade while cutting. There should be
no nails or foreign objects in the workpiece.
8.
Do not use the saw until the table is clear of all tools,
wood scraps, etc., except for the workpiece.
Small
debris or loose pieces of wood or other objects that contact
the revolving blade can be thrown with high speed.
9.
Cut only one workpiece at a time.
Stacked multiple
workpieces cannot be adequately clamped or braced
and may bind on the blade or shift during cutting.
10.
Ensure the mitre saw is mounted or placed on
a level, firm work surface before use.
A level
and firm work surface reduces the risk of the mitre
saw becoming unstable.
11.
Plan your work. Every time you change the bevel or
mitre angle setting, make sure the adjustable fence
is set correctly to support the workpiece and will
not interfere with the blade or the guarding system.
Without turning the tool "ON" and with no workpiece
on the table, move the saw blade through a complete
simulated cut to assure there will be no interference or
danger of cutting the fence.
12.
Provide adequate support such as table exten-
sions, saw horses, etc. for a workpiece that is
wider or longer than the table top.
Workpieces
longer or wider than the mitre saw table can tip
if not securely supported. If the cut-off piece or
workpiece tips, it can lift the lower guard or be
thrown by the spinning blade.
13.
Do not use another person as a substitute for a
table extension or as additional support.
Unstable
support for the workpiece can cause the blade to bind
or the workpiece to shift during the cutting operation
pulling you and the helper into the spinning blade.
14.
The cut-off piece must not be jammed or
pressed by any means against the spinning
saw blade.
If confined, i.e. using length stops, the
cut-off piece could get wedged against the blade
and thrown violently.
15.
Always use a clamp or a fixture designed to
properly support round material such as rods
or tubing.
Rods have a tendency to roll while
being cut, causing the blade to "bite" and pull the
work with your hand into the blade.
16.
Let the blade reach full speed before contact-
ing the workpiece.
This will reduce the risk of the
workpiece being thrown.
17.
If the workpiece or blade becomes jammed,
turn the mitre saw off. Wait for all moving
parts to stop and disconnect the plug from
the power source and/or remove the battery
pack. Then work to free the jammed material.
Continued sawing with a jammed workpiece could
cause loss of control or damage to the mitre saw.
18.
After finishing the cut, release the switch,
hold the saw head down and wait for the blade
to stop before removing the cut-off piece.
Reaching with your hand near the coasting blade
is dangerous.
19.
Hold the handle firmly when making an incom
-
plete cut or when releasing the switch before
the saw head is completely in the down posi-
tion.
The braking action of the saw may cause
the saw head to be suddenly pulled downward,
causing a risk of injury.
20.
Only use the saw blade with the diameter that
is marked on the tool or specified in the man
-
ual.
Use of an incorrectly sized blade may affect
the proper guarding of the blade or guard opera-
tion which could result in serious personal injury.
21.
Only use the saw blades that are marked with
a speed equal or higher than the speed marked
on the tool.
22.
Do not use the saw to cut other than wood,
aluminum or similar materials.
23.
(For European countries only)
Always use the blade which conforms to
EN847-1.
Additional instructions
1.
Make workshop kid proof with padlocks.
2.
Never stand on the tool.
Serious injury could
occur if the tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is
unintentionally contacted.
3.
Never leave the tool running unattended. Turn
the power off. Do not leave tool until it comes
to a complete stop.
4.
Do not operate saw without guards in place.
Check blade guard for proper closing before
each use. Do not operate saw if blade guard does
not move freely and close instantly. Never clamp
or tie the blade guard into the open position.
5.
Keep hands out of path of saw blade. Avoid
contact with any coasting blade. It can still
cause severe injury.
6.
Never clamp or tie the blade guard into the
open position.
7.
To reduce the risk of injury, return carriage to the
full rear position after each crosscut operation.
8.
Always secure all moving portions before
carrying the tool.
9.
Stopper pin which locks the cutter head down
is for carrying and storage purposes only and
not for any cutting operations.
10.
Check the blade carefully for cracks or dam-
age before operation. Replace cracked or dam-
aged blade immediately. Gum and wood pitch
hardened on blades slows saw and increases
potential for kickback. Keep blade clean by
first removing it from tool, then cleaning it with
gum and pitch remover, hot water or kerosene.
Never use gasoline to clean blade.
11.
While making a slide cut, KICKBACK can
occur. KICKBACK occurs when the blade
binds in the workpiece during a cutting oper-
ation and the saw blade is driven rapidly
towards the operator. Loss of control and seri-
ous personal injury can result. If blade begins
to bind during a cutting operation, do not con-
tinue to cut and release switch immediately.
12.
Use only flanges specified for this tool.
13.
Be careful not to damage the arbor, flanges
(especially the installing surface) or bolt. Damage
to these parts could result in blade breakage.
