ARisk of kickback (workpiece is
caught by the saw blade and thrown
against the operator):
Always work with a properly set riv-
ing knife.
The riving knife and the saw blade
used must match: the riving knife
should be thinner than the kerf, but
thicker than the saw blade body.
Do not jam workpieces.
Make sure the saw blade is suitable
for the workpiece material.
Cut thin or thin-walled workpieces
only with fine-toothed saw blades.
Always use sharp saw blades.
If in doubt, check workpiece for in-
clusion of foreign matter (e.g. nails
or screws).
Cut only stock of dimensions that al-
low for safe and secure holding
while cutting.
Never cut several workpieces at the
same time – and also no bundles
containing several individual pieces.
Risk of personal injury if individual
pieces are caught by the saw blade
uncontrolled.
Remove small cutoffs, scrap, etc.
from the work area – when doing so
the saw blade must be at a complete
standstill.
cDrawing-in/trapping hazard!
Ensure that no parts of the body or
clothing can be caught and drawn in
by rotating components (no neck-
ties, no gloves, no loose-fitting
clothes; contain long hair with hair-
net).
Never attempt to cut any workpieces
which contain
–ropes,
–strings,
–cords,
cables or
wires, or to which any of the
above are attached.
AHazard generated by insuffi-
cient personal protection gear!
Wear hearing protection.
Wear protective goggles.
Wear dust mask.
Wear suitable work clothes.
When working outdoors wearing of
non-slip shoes is recommended.
ARisk of injury by inhaled wood
dust!
Dust of certain timber species (e.g.
beech, oak, ash) can cause cancer
when inhaled. Work only with a suit-
able dust collector attached to the
saw. The dust collector must comply
with the data stated in the technical
specifications.
Ensure that as little as possible
wood dust will get into the environ-
ment:
remove wood dust deposit in the
work area (do not blow away!);
fix any leakages on the dust col-
lector;
ensure good ventilation.
AHazard generated by modifica-
tion of the machine or use of parts
not tested and approved by the
equipment manufacturer!
Assemble tool in strict accordance
with these instructions.
Use only parts approved by the
equipment manufacturer. This ap-
plies especially for:
saw blades (for order numbers,
refer to Available Accessories);
safety devices (for order num-
bers, see spare parts list spare
parts list).
Do not change any parts.
AHazard generated by tool de-
fects!
Keep tool and accessories in good
repair. Observe the maintenance in-
structions.
Before every use check tool for pos-
sible damage: before operating the
tool all safety devices, protective
guards or slightly damaged parts
need to be checked for proper func-
tion as specified. Check to see that
all moving parts work properly and
do not jam. All parts must be cor-
rectly installed and meet all condi-
tions necessary for the proper oper-
ation of the tool.
Damaged protection devices or
parts must be repaired or replaced
by a qualified specialist. Have dam-
aged switches replaced by a service
centre. Do not operate tool if the
switch cannot be turned ON or OFF.
Keep handles free of oil and grease.
ARisk of injury by noise!
Wear hearing protection.
Make sure the riving knife is not
bent. A bent riving knife will push the
workpiece against the side of the
saw blade, causing noise.
ADanger from blocking work-
pieces or workpiece parts!
If blockage occurs:
1. switch machine off,
2. unplug mains cable,
3. wear gloves,
4. clear the blockage using a suitable
tool.
