HEALTH ADVICE

WARNING: When using this machine, dust
particles may be produced. In some instances,
depending on the materials you are working
with, this dust can be particularly harmful.
If you suspect that paint on the surface
of material you wish to cut 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.
You are advised to consider the risks associated
with the materials you are working with and to
reduce the risk of exposure. As some materials
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.
You should always:
• Work in a well-ventilated area.
• Work with approved safety equipment,
such as dust masks that are specially
designed to filter microscopic particles.

WARNING: the operation of any power tool
can result in foreign objects being thrown
towards your eyes, which could result in
severe eye damage. Before beginning power
tool operation, always wear safety goggles
or safety glasses with side shield or a full face
shield where necessary.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

- TABLE SAWS

WARNING: Before using your table saw it is
important that you read and understand these
safety rules. Failure to follow these rules could
result in serious injury to the operator or damage
to the table saw.
Do not use saw blades which are
•
damaged or deformed.
Replace the table insert/access
•
plate if worn.
• Use only blades as recommended in
this manual, which conform to EN 847-
When changing a saw blade ensure that
the width of the groove (kerf) cut by the
blade is slightly greater than the thickness
of the riving knife. Also the thickness of the
blade body must not be greater than the
thickness of the riving knife.
Take care that the selection of the saw
•
blade is suitable for the material to be cut.
Wear suitable personal protective
•
equipment when necessary.
This could include:
• Hearing protection to reduce the risk of
induced hearing loss.
• Respiratory protection to reduce the
risk of inhalation of harmful dust.
• Wearing gloves when handling saw
blades or rough material.
• Saw blades should be carried in a
holder whenever practicable.
• Never perform any operation
freehand. This means using only your
hands to support or guide the workpiece.
Always use either the fence or mitre gauge
to position and guide the work.
WARNING: Freehand cutting is a major cause
of accidents and should not be attempted.
• Never attempt to free a stalled blade
without first turning the saw off.
Turn the power off immediately to
prevent damage to the motor.
• Provide adequate support for long or
wide workpieces.
• Avoid awkward operations and hand
positions where a slip could cause your
hand to move into the blade.
• Always use the blade guard. The blade
guard must always be used in every operation.
