Safety devices

Retractable blade guard
The retractable blade guard (32) pro-
tects against unintentional contact with
the saw blade and from chips flying
about.
Both segments of the retractable blade
guard must always return automatically
into their starting position: when the saw-
head is lifted up, the sawblade must be
covered all around.
Safety lock
The safety lock (33) prevents the retract-
able blade guard from unintentional
opening.

For cutting the safety lock is pushed to
the side (arrow). Only then can the saw-
head be lowered, opening the retracta-
ble blade guard.
After the cut is made - and the sawhead
is in its upper starting position - the
retractable blade guard is locked again
by the safety lock.
Hole for padlock
The hole (34) provided in the ON/OFF
switch can be used for blocking the
switch with a padlock.

help of another person.
3 Note:

2. Tip the machine over the install the
rubber feet:
− The machine's feet must be
accessible from both sides.
− The machine must rest securely
in its tipped over position.

underside of the rubber foot.
Put hexagon socket screw (35) from
