correctly.
■ The lower blade guard should only open when the
blade is lowered to the workpiece and must always be
able to move freely and close automatically.
■ Always fix and use extension bars for workpiece
support during operation.
■ Never alter of modify the product or its function. Your
safety may be compromised.
■ Do not use saw blades which are cracked, damaged
or deformed.
■ Do not use saw blades made of high-speed steel.
■ Only use blades that are sharp. Replace dull blades.
■ Always use blades with correct size and shape of
arbour holes. Blades that do not match the mounting
hardware of the saw will run eccentrically, causing loss
of control.
■ Use only woodworking blades specified in this manual,
which comply with EN 847-1.
■ Do not use any flanges, washers and nuts to secure the
saw blade other than those supplied or indicated in the
instruction manual.
■ It is necessary to select a saw blade which is suitable
for the material being cut. Never use the product to cut
materials other than those specified in the intended use
section in this manual.
■ It is important to avoid overheating the blade and
melting the plastic workpiece when cutting.
■ It is essential to adhere to the maximum speed specified
on the saw blade, only use saw blade that are marked
with a speed equal or higher than the speed marked
on the tool.
■ Replace the table insert when worn or damaged.
■ Before work, make a dummy cut without the motor
turned on so the position of the blade, operation of
the guards with respect to other machine parts, and
workpiece may be checked.
■ When performing mitre, bevel or compound mitre cuts,
adjust or remove the sliding fence to ensure the correct
clearance from the blade. Sliding fence removal is
required at bevel angle larger than 25° to the right and
30° to the left. Refer to page 15 for instructions of sliding
fence adjustment and 21- 24 for removal respectively.
■ After removal, the sliding fence, locking screw and
washer must be well kept and reinstalled when bevel or
compound mitre cut is complete.
■ The bracket stop must always be engaged when
transporting the product.
■ Keep the floor area free of loose materials, such as
chips and cut-offs.
■ Refrain from removing any cut-offs or other parts of the
workpiece from the cutting area whilst the product is
running and the saw head is not in the rest position.
■ Long workpieces must be adequately supported. The
working area of the saw includes the whole extent of
the workpiece. The operator should secure this area
from accidental contact from other persons or objects
which may move the workpiece during operation.
■ The dust produced when using the product may be
harmful to health. Use a dust suction system and wear
a suitable dust protection mask. Remove deposited
dust thoroughly with a vacuum cleaner.
■ Do not replace the laser with a different type. Any
repairs must only be carried out by the manufacturer or
authorised service agent.
■ It is recommended that the product always be supplied
via a residual current device having a rated residual
current of 30mA or less.
■ When using the product, voltage fluctuations may
affect other electrical products or lighting on the same
power circuit. Connect the product to a power source
with an impedance equal to 0.421Ω to minimize voltage
fluctuations. Contact your electric power supplier for
further clarification.
LASER SAFETY RULES
■ The laser radiation used in this saw is Class 2 with
maximum ≤1mW and 650nm wavelengths. Do not stare
into the laser beam. Failure to comply with the rules
could result in serious personal injury.
■ Do not stare into beam during operation.
■ Do not project the laser beam directly into the eyes of
others. Serious eye injury could result.
■ Do not place the laser in a position that may cause
anyone to stare into the laser beam intentionally or
unintentionally.
■ Do not use optical tools to view the laser beam.
■ Do not operate the laser around children or allow
children to operate the laser.
■ Do not attempt to repair the laser device by yourself.
■ Do not attempt to change any parts of the laser device
by yourself.
■ Any repairs must only be carried out by the laser
manufacturer or authorized service agent.
■ Do not replace the laser with a different type.
RESIDUAL RISKS
Even when the product is used as prescribed, it is still
impossible to completely eliminate certain residual risk
factors. The following hazards may arise and the operator
should pay special attention to avoid the following:
■ Risk of contact with uncovered parts of the rotating saw
blade
■ Kick-back of workpieces or parts of workpieces due to
improper adjustment or handling
■ Catapulting of faulty carbide tips from the saw blade
■ Damage to the respiratory system
NOTE: Wear respiratory protection masks containing
filters appropriate to the materials being worked.
Ensure adequate workplace ventilation. Do not eat,
drink or smoke in the work area.
■ Damage to hearing if effective hearing protection is not
worn.
