stopping.
20.
Make sure the blade is not contacting the
workpiece before the switch is turned on.
21.
Before using the tool on an actual workpiece,
let it run for a while. Watch for vibration or
wobbling that could indicate poor installation
or a poorly balanced blade.

23.
Stop operation immediately if you notice
anything abnormal.

Do not attempt to lock the trigger in the on
position.
25.
Be alert at all times, especially during

Some dust created from operation contains
chemicals known to cause cancer, birth
defects or other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these chemicals are:
•
lead from lead-based-painted material and,
•
arsenic and chromium from
chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies,
depending on how often you do this type
of work. To reduce your exposure to these
chemicals: work in a well ventilated area
and work with approved safety equipment,
such as those dust masks that are
specially designed to filter out microscopic
particles.
34.
To reduce the emitted noise, always be sure
that the blade is sharp and clean.
35.
The operator is adequately trained in the use,
adjustment and operation of the machine.
36.
Use correctly sharpened saw blades. Observe
the maximum speed marked on the saw blade.
37.
Refrain from removing any cut-offs or other
parts of the workpiece from the cutting area
whilst the tool is running and the saw head is
not in the rest position.
38.
Use only saw blades recommended by the
manufacturer which conform to EN847-1.
39.
Wear gloves for handling saw blade (saw
blades shall be carried in a holder wherever
practicable) and rough material.
