7.2 Sawing
WARNING
Risk of injury
Exposed rotating saw blade
► Keep your hands away from the cutting
area and the saw blade.
► Do not reach under the workpiece.
► Never hold a workpiece in your hand or
support it with your leg.
► The cross cutting guide rail must be
attached on the workpiece with a fastening
clamp [3-1] or similar clamping tool before
sawing. This prevents the saw accidentally
being lifted from the workpiece and the
saw blade therefore being exposed.
If the saw or the pendulum guard fails to return
to its initial position (parked position), stop the
sawing process and remove the battery pack or
disconnect the mains plug from the socket.
Check whether the tool is functioning properly
and remove any trapped wood splinters.
The parked position and working position of the
saw are marked on the cross cutting guide rail
as follows:
Parked position
Closed pendulum guard
Working position
Open pendulum guard
Sawing process

cially the adjusting devices and guides, is
an important safety factor.
