•
Do not use the power cable for pur-
poses it is not intended for.
A
Risk of injury by moving parts!
•
Do not operate the tool without
installed guards.
•
Always keep sufficient distance to
the saw blade. Use suitable feeding
aids, if necessary. Keep sufficient
distance
to
driven
when operating the tool.
•
Wait for the saw blade to come to a
complete stop before removing cut-
offs, scrap, etc. from the work area.
•
Cut only work pieces of dimensions
that allow for safe and secure hold-
ing while cutting.
•
Do not attempt to stop the saw
blade by pushing the workpiece
against its side.
•
Ensure the tool is disconnected from
power before servicing.
•
Ensure that when switching on (e.g.
after servicing) no tools or loose
parts are left on or in the tool.
•
Unplug if the tool is not used.
A
Cutting hazard, even with the
cutting tool at standstill!
•
Wear gloves when changing cutting
tools.
•
Store saw blade in such manner that
nobody will get hurt.
A
Risk of sawhead kickback (the
saw blade is caught in the workpiece
and the sawhead kicked up all of a
sudden)!
•
Make sure the saw blade is suitable
for the workpiece material.
•
Hold the handle firmly. When the
saw blade enters the work piece, the
kickback risk is particularly high.
•
Cut thin or thin-walled workpieces
only with fine-toothed saw blades.
•
Always use sharp saw blades.
Replace blunt saw blades at once.
Increased risk of kickback when a
blunt tooth gets caught by the work-
piece's surface.
•
Do not jam workpieces.
•
Avoid lateral pressure on the saw
blade when grooving – use a stock
clamp.
•
If in doubt, check workpiece for
inclusion of foreign matter (e.g. nails
or screws).
•
Never cut several workpieces at the
same time – and also no bundles
containing several individual pieces.
Risk of personal injury if individual
pieces are caught by the saw blade
uncontrolled.
c
Drawing-in/trapping hazard!
•
Ensure that no parts of the body or
clothing can be caught and drawn in
by rotating components (no neck-
ties, no gloves, no loose-fitting
clothes; contain long hair with hair-
net).
•
Never attempt to cut any workpieces
which contain
− ropes,
− strings,
− cords,
− cables or
components
− wires, or to which any of the
above are attached.
A
Hazard generated by insuffi-
cient personal protection gear!
•
Wear ear protection.
•
Wear safety glasses.
•
Wear dust mask.
•
Wear suitable work clothes.
•
Wear non-slip shoes.
A
Risk of injury by inhaled wood
dust!
•
Dust of certain timber species (e.g.
beech, oak, ash) can cause cancer
when inhaled. Work only with a suit-
able dust collector attached to the
saw. The dust collector must comply
with the data stated in the technical
specifications.
•
Ensure that as little as possible
wood dust will get into the environ-
ment:
− remove wood dust deposit in the
work area (do not blow away!);
− fix any leakages on the dust col-
lector;
− ensure good ventilation.
A
Hazard generated by modifica-
tion of the machine or the use of non-
OEM parts not tested and approved
by the manufacturer!
•
Assemble tool in strict accordance
with these instructions.
•
Use only parts approved by the
equipment
applies especially for:
− saw

− safety devices (see "Technical
specifications" for stock nos.).
•
Do not change any parts.
A
Hazard
defects!
•
Keep tool and accessories in good
repair. Observe the maintenance
instructions.
•
Before any use check tool for possi-
ble damage: before operating the
tool all safety devices, protective
guards or slightly damaged parts
need to be checked for proper func-
manufacturer.

tion as specified. Check to see that
all moving parts work properly and
do not jam. Make sure that all parts
and
accessories
are
installed and safely secured to
ensure the safe and trouble-free
operation of the machine.
•
Do not use damaged or warped saw
blades.
•
Damaged protection devices or parts
must be repaired or replaced by a
qualified specialist. Have damaged
switches replaced by a service cen-
tre. Do not operate tool if the switch
can not be turned ON or OFF.
•
Keep handles free of oil and grease.
A
Risk of injury by noise!
•
Wear ear protection.
•
For reasons of noise protection do
not use warped saw blades. A
warped blade is exiting vibrations to
an especially large extent, which
means noise.
A
Danger from blocking work-
pieces or workpiece parts!
If blockage occurs:
1.
Switch machine OFF.
2.
Unplug mains cable.
3.
Wear gloves.
4.
Clear the blockage using a suitable
tool.

Danger!
Disregard of the follow-
ing warnings can lead to
severe personal injury or
material damage.
Read instructions.
Do not reach into the run-
ning saw blade.
Wear safety goggles and
hearing protection.
Do not operate tool in moist
or wet environment.
Do not carry tool at
the handle; the han-
dle is not designed to
bear the weight of the
tool.
