manual. The improper use of an accessory can cause
damage.
Do not modify the tool.
Ensure that any spacers and spindle rings used are
suitable for the purpose as stated in this manual.
Select the correct blade for the material to be cut.
Observe the maximum speed marked on the saw
blade. Ensure the speed marked on the saw blade is at
least equal to the speed marked on the saw.
Use a holder or wear gloves when handling a saw
blade.
Ensure the saw blade is mounted correctly before use.
Make sure the blade rotates in the correct direction.
Keep the blade sharp.
Consider applying specially designed noise-reduction
blades.
Raise the blade from the kerf in the workpiece prior to
releasing the switch.
Ensure the arm is securely fixed when performing bevel
cuts.
Ensure the arm is securely fixed in the working position
in the bench saw mode.
Ensure that the bench saw table is securely fixed at the
chosen height.
Do not wedge anything against the fan to hold the motor
shaft.
The blade guard on your saw will automatically raise
when the arm is brought down, it will lower over the
blade when the arm is raised. The guard can be raised
by hand when installing or removing saw blades or
when inspecting the saw. Never raise the blade guard
manually unless the saw is switched off.
Keep the surrounding area of the machine well
maintained and free of loose materials, such as chips
and cut-offs.
Periodically check that the motor air slots are clean and
free of chips.
Disconnect the machine from the mains before carrying
out any maintenance work or when changing the blade.
Never perform any cleaning or maintenance work when
the machine is still running and the head is not in the
rest position.
When possible, always mount the machine to a bench
and check for the security of fixing to bench.
When performing mitre, bevel or compound mitre cuts,
adjust the sliding mitre fence to ensure the correct
clearance for the application.
Refrain from removing any cut-offs or other parts of
the workpiece from the cutting area while the saw is
running.
Before work, check that the machine is placed on an
even surface with sufficient stability.
Before work, make a dummy cut without the motor
turned on so the position of the blade, operation of the
guards with respect to other machine parts and work
piece may be checked.
Never cut light alloy, especially magnesium.
Do not use any abrasive or diamond discs.

In case of an accident or machine failure, immediately
turn the machine off and disconnect machine from the
power source.
Report the failure and mark the machine to prevent
other people from using the defective machine.
When the saw blade is blocked due to abnormal feed
force during cutting, turn the machine off and disconnect
it from power supply. Remove the workpiece and
ensure that the saw blade runs free. Turn the machine
on and start new cutting operation with reduced feed
force.
Ensure that your position is always left or right of the
cutting line.
Provide adequate general or localized lighting to
prevent stroboscopic effect and hazards.
Ensure the operator is adequately trained in use,
adjustment and operation of the machine.
Turn the machine off when unattended.
Connect the saw to a dust collection when sawing
wood. Always consider factors influencing exposure
of dust such as type of material to be machined (chip
board produces more dust than wood), adjustment
of saw blade, adjustment of local extraction as well
as hoods, baffles and chutes, and air velocity of dust
extractor.
Keep the saw blade sharp and properly set.
Do not attempt to operate on anything but the
designated voltage.
Do not apply lubricants on the blade when it is running.
Ensure that bystanders do not stand behind the
machine.
For your own safety, always mount the machine to a
work bench using bolts.
Always use blades with correct size and shape of
arbour holes. Blades that do not match the mounting
hardware of the saw will run eccentrically, causing loss
of control.
Use only blades specified in this manual, complying
with EN 847-1.
When cutting long or large workpieces, always
provide adequate support to the sides of the table.
The support should be at the same height as the table.
Always keep hands away from path of table.
Disconnect the saw from the mains supply before
changing blades or carrying out maintenance.
Keep your hands out of the path of the saw blade.
Do not reach around behind the saw blade.
Do not stand on top of the unit.
During transportation, make sure the upper part of the
saw blade is covered.
Do not use the upper guard for handling or
transportation.
Do not use the saw for cutting any material other than
wood.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR TABLE SAW MODE
Replace the table insert when worn.
Never use your saw without the table insert.
