during transport of the saw.
• Protective covers must not be used for transport or
improper operation of the machine.
• Deformed or damaged saw bands may not be used.
• Replace a worn table inlay.
• Never operate the machine when the door protect-
ing the saw band or the guard is open.
• Make sure that the choice of saw band and speed is
suitable for the material to be cut.
• Do not start cleaning the saw band until it has come
to a complete stop.
• Use a push stick when making straight cuts in small
workpieces against the parallel stop.

guards.
• Keep your hands at a safe distance from the saw

Residual risks
The machine has been built according to the state-of-
the-art and the recognised technical safety require-
ments. However, individual residual risks can arise
during operation.
• Danger of injury for ngers and hands due to the
running saw band with improper guiding of the work-
piece.
• Injuries due to the workpiece being ejected at high
speed due to improper holding or guiding, such as
working without the stop.
• Risk to health from wood dust or wood chippings.
It is essential that personal protective equipment,
such as eye protection, is worn. Use a suction sys-
tem!
• Injuries due to defective saw band. Check the integ-
rity of the saw band regularly.
• Never wear gloves during operation.
• Keep your hands away from the saw band.
• Never stand in the cutting direction of the saw band
and keep all persons away from this area.
• Allow the tool is run without load for a while before
placing the workpiece to be processed on the tool.
Pay attention to vibrations and banging; these phe-
nomenon can indicate damage or an improperly in-
stalled saw band.
• Ensure that the saw band and speed are chosen
based on the material to be cut.
• Only clean the saw band when it is at a standstill.
• The table extension or roller trestle (special acces-
sories) must be used with larger workpiece dimen-
sions which could tilt the tabletop.
• The machine must be connected to a suction system
if used in enclosed spaces. Use a suction system for
extracting the wood chippings or sawdust. The ow
speed at the suction port must be 20 m/s. Negative
pressure 860 Pa.
• When cutting round or irregular shaped wood, use a
device to prevent the workpiece turning.

vent the workpiece kicking back.
• Pass the safety instructions on to all persons who
work on the machine.
