Before tool changes and eliminating malfunc-

tions (including the removal of trapped splin-

ters), pull out the mains plug.

Never work with pieces which are too big or too

small for the machine´s capacity.

Apart from when executing dropped-in cuts, the

riving knife / splitter must be used at all times. It

must be set in such a way that the distance

between it and the cutting edge of the saw blade

does not exceed 5 mm (1/4 in.) (see Fig. 7 -

page 4).

Make certain that the body of the saw blade is

thinner and the cutting width (set) is wider than

the thickness of the riving knife / splitter.

Apart from when executing partial and droppe-

din cuts the upper saw guard must be used at all

times. It must be set in such a way that the

entire cutting edge of the saw blade is covered

except for the part required for cutting the work-

piece.

Take up a working position so that you are

always on one side of the saw blade, i.e. outside

the cutting plane.

When ripping narrow pieces of timber (distance

between saw blade and parallel fence less than

120 mm (4 3/4 in.), the push stick included in

the delivery specification or a push block must

be used.

Make sure, that small offcuts cannot be caught

and catapulted away by the rising cutting edge

of the saw blade, for instance by using a deflec-

tor wedge secured to the end of the table with a

screw clamp.

Cross and mitre cuts must be executed only

when using the machine as a pull or inverted

radial arm saw or with a sliding table.

Cutting round timber is not permitted with the

standard guide fences and feed equipment.

When executing dropped-in cuts, a protective

device against kickback must be used, e.g. a

universal guide fence attached to the machine

table at a right angle to the saw blade.

When using a power feed device, protection

against kickback must be ensured by at least

using the riving knife / splitter.

Examine the workpiece for foreign objects. Do not

cut metal parts, e.g. nails, because the delicate

carbide tips of the saw blade may be damaged.

Do not begin cutting until the saw blade has

reached full speed.

Match the feed rate to the thickness of the work-

piece when sawing. Excessive feed rates over-

load the motor, lead to poorly executed cuts,

and blunt the saw blade prematurely.

Do not work with blunt saw blades as they not

only increase the risk of kickback, but also

impose an unnecessary load on the motor.

No attempt must be made to slow down the saw

blade by applying lateral pressure to its surface.

The sawdust created by cutting makes it difficult to

see as clearly as may be necessary and can be

damaging to health in certain circumstances. If not

working outdoors or on well ventilated premises,

the machine must be connected to an extractor

unit, such as a small portable dust extractor.

The upper saw guard outlet 4 (Fig. 5 - page 3)

should be connected to the extractor connection of

the lower saw guard by means of connecting hose

5 supplied with the machine. The air velocity must

be at least 20 m/s (65.6 ft/sec.).

Instructions on service and maintenance:

Before starting any maintenance work pull out

the mains plug from the socket.

Work on the electrical components of the

machine should only be performed by a trained

electrician.

Damaged cables or plugs must be renewed

immediately.

If the slot in the table is badly damaged, the

table must be exchanged by the MAFELL after-

sales service.

Regular cleaning of the machine, especially the

table and guideways for the moving parts, is an

important safety factor. Before beginning this

task, pull out the mains plug.

Only original MAFELL spare parts and acces-

sories must be used. Otherwise the manufac-

turer does not offer any warranty and does not

accept any liability.
