• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure
the switch is in the off-position before
connecting to power source and or
battery pack, picking up or carrying the
tool. Carrying power tools with your finger
on the switch or energising the power tools
that have the switch on invites accidents.
• Remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning the power tool on. A
wrench or key left attached to a rotating part
of a power tool may result in personal injury .
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. This enables
better control of the power tool in
unexpected situations.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair
can be caught in moving parts.
• If devices are provided for the connection
of dust extraction and collection facilities,
ensure that these are connected and
properly used. Use of dust collection can
reduce dust-related hazards.
4) General Power Tool Safety Warnings
[Power tool use and care]
• Do not force the power tool. Use the
correct power tool for your application.
The correct power tool will do the job better
and safer at a rate for which it was designed.
• Do not use the power tool if the switch
does not turn it ON or OFF. Any power
tool that cannot be controlled with the
switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
• Disconnect the power tool from the
power source and/or battery pack from
the power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing power tools. Such preventative
safety measures reduce the risk of starting
the power tool accidentally.
• Store idle power tools out of the reach
of children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the power tool or these
Instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of

untrained users.
• Maintain power tools. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of moving parts and any other
condition that may affect the power tools
operation. If damaged, have the power
tool repaired before use. Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind
and are easier to control.
• Use the power tool, accessories and
tool bits etc. in accordance with these
instructions, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to
be performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
5) General Power Tool Safety Warnings
[Service]
• Have your power tool serviced by a
qualified repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.
HEALTH ADVICE
WARNING: If you suspect that paint on surfaces
in your home contains lead seek professional
advice. Lead based paints should only be removed
by a professional and you should not attempt
to remove it yourself. Once the dust has been
deposited on surfaces, hand to mouth contact can
result in the ingestion of lead. Exposure to even
low levels of lead can cause irreversible brain and
nervous system damage. The young and unborn
children are particularly vulnerable.
WARNING: Some wood and wood type
products, especially MDF (Medium Density
Fibreboard), can produce dust that may be
hazardous to your health. We recommend the
use of an approved face mask with replaceable
filters when using this machine, in addition to
using the dust extraction facility.

MITRE SAW SPECIFIC SAFETY
The following specific safety instructions for
Mitre Saws are based on the requirements of
EN61029-2-9:2009.
BLADE SAFETY
WARNING: Rotating Saw Blades are extremely
dangerous and can cause serious injury and
amputation. Always keep fingers and hands at least
150mm away from the blade at all times. Never
attempt to retrieve sawn material until the cutting
head is in the raised position, the guard is fully
closed and the saw blade has stopped rotating.
Only use saw blades that are recommended
by the manufacturer and as detailed in this
manual and that comply with the requirements
of EN 847-1
Do Not use saw blades that are damaged or
deformed as they could shatter and cause serious
injury to the operator or bystanders.
Do Not use saw blades that are manufactured
from high speed steel (HSS).
If the table insert becomes damaged or worn it
must be replaced with an identical one available
from the manufacturer as detailed in this manual.
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE
EQUIPMENT (PPE)
Hearing protection should be worn in order to
reduce the risk of induced hearing loss.
Eye protection should be worn in order to
prevent the possibility of the loss of sight from
ejected chippings.
Respiratory protection is also advised as some
wood and wood type products especially MDF
(Medium Density Fibreboard) can produce
dust that can be hazardous to your health. We
recommend the use of an approved face mask
with replaceable filters when using this machine
in addition to using the dust extraction facility.
9
Gloves should be worn when handling blades
or rough material. It is recommended that saw
blades should be carried in a holder wherever
practicable. It is not advisable to wear gloves
when operating the mitre saw.
SAFE OPERATION
Always ensure that you have selected the correct
saw blade for the material being cut. Do Not use
this mitre saw to cut materials other than those
specified in this Instruction Manual.
When transporting a mitre saw ensure that
the cutting head is locked in the 90 degree
down position (if a sliding mitre saw ensure
that the slide bars are locked). Lift the
machine by gripping the outer edges of the
base with both hands (if a sliding mitre saw,
transport using the handles provided). Under
no circumstances shall the machine be lifted or
transported using the retractable guard or any
part of its operating mechanism.
Before each use check the operation of the
retractable guard and its operating mechanism
ensuring that there is no damage, and that all
moving parts operate smoothly and correctly.
Keep the work bench and floor area clear of all
debris including sawdust, chips and off-cuts.
Always check and ensure that the speed
marked on the saw blade is at least equal to
the no load speed marked on the mitre saw.
Under no circumstances shall a saw blade be
used that is marked with a speed that is less than
the no load speed marked on the mitre saw.
Where it is necessary to use spacer or reducing
rings these must be suitable for the intended
purpose and only as recommended by the
manufacturer.
If the mitre saw is fitted with a laser it shall not
be replaced with a different type. If the laser
fails to operate it shall be repaired or replaced
by the manufacturer or his authorised agent.
