•
When working outside it is recommended that the tool always be supplied via a residual
current device with a rated current of 30mA or less.
•
Pull out the plug when you are not using the device, or are making adjustments.
•
Always guide the cable away from the back of the tool.
•
Ensure that the socket outlet that the tool is connected to is always accessible during use.
•
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a special cord or assembly available from the
manufacturer or its service agent.
6. SPECIAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS:
•
Never use the crosscut mitre saw for cutting materials other than those specified by the
manufacturer.
•
Only use the saw if the guards are in the correct position and if the saw is in good condition and has
been serviced correctly.
•
Ensure that the equipment for swinging the arm on mitre saws is securely fastened.
•
The floor around the machine must be flat, clean and clear of loose particles such as chips and
off-cuts.
•
Ensure that there is reasonable lighting in the workplace or room.
•
The operator must have received adequate training in the use, setting and operation of the
machine.
•
Ensure that you only use spacing discs and spindle rings which are suitable for the purpose and
specified by the manufacturer.
•
The laser must not be replaced by a laser of a different type. Repairs may only be carried out by
the manufacturer of the laser or an authorised representative.
•
Damaged or deformed saw blades must not be used.
•
Replace worn table inserts.
•
Use only saw blades which are recommended by the manufacturer and comply with EN 847-1.
•
Do not use saw blades made of high speed steel.
•
The crosscut mitre saw must be connected to a dust extraction system for sawing wood.
•
Always position the workpiece securely on the machine surface to prevent the workpiece moving.
•
Use an additional support for long work pieces (for example a table or saw stool) to prevent the
machine from tipping over. Do not ask other people to hold the workpiece.
•
Place the machine on a strong, flat working area before use.
•
Check whether the moving parts of the machine are in perfect working order and that no parts are
damaged.
•
Check the direction of rotation of the motor and saw blade.
•
Replace defective saw blades immediately.
•
Keep your hands fingers and arms away from the rotating saw blade.
•
Do not reach behind the stop rail near the saw blade, the distance between your hand and the
rotating saw blade is too small for this.
•
Only saw one workpiece at a time. Work pieces placed on top of each other or side by side cannot
be clamped correctly and they may jam the saw blade or move relative to each other.
•
Keep the cutting track free of obstacles both at the top and the bottom.
•
Do not saw work pieces which contain nails or similar foreign bodies.
