Even when the equipment is used as prescribed it is still impossible to
eliminate certain residual risk factors. The following hazards may arise in
connection with the equipment‘s construction and design:
• Contact with the saw blade in the uncovered saw zone.
• Reaching into the running saw blade (cut injuries).
• Kick-back of workpieces and parts of workpieces.
• Saw blade fracturing.
• Catapulting of faulty carbide tips from the saw blade.
• Damage to hearing if essential ear-muffs are not used.
• Harmful emissions of wood dust when used in closed rooms.
