It should be installed in an area that provides
enough room to easily handle the size of your
workpiece. Cramped, dark areas, and uneven slippery
floors invite accidents.
d ) Frequently clean and remove sawdust from under
the saw table and/or the dust collection device.
Accumulated sawdust is combustible and may self-ignite.
e ) The table saw must be secured. A table saw that is not
properly secured may move or tip over.
f ) Remove tools, wood scraps, etc. from the table
before the table saw is turned on. Distraction or a
potential jam can be dangerous.
g ) Always use saw blades with correct size and shape
(diamond versus round) of arbour holes. Saw blades
that do not match the mounting hardware of the saw will
run off-centre, causing loss of control.
h ) Never use damaged or incorrect saw blade mounting
means such as flanges, saw blade washers, bolts or
nuts. These mounting means were specially designed for
your saw, for safe operation and optimum performance.
i ) Never stand on the table saw, do not use it as a
stepping stool. Serious injury could occur if the tool is
tipped or if the cutting tool is accidentally contacted.
j ) Make sure that the saw blade is installed to rotate
in the proper direction. Do not use grinding wheels,
wire brushes, or abrasive wheels on a table saw.
Improper saw blade installation or use of accessories not
recommended may cause serious injury.
Additional Safety Rules for Table Saws
WARNING: Cutting plastics, sap coated wood, and other
materials may cause melted material to accumulate on
the blade tips and the body of the saw blade, increasing
the risk of blade overheating and binding while cutting.
•
Make sure that the blade rotates in the correct direction and
that the teeth are pointing to the front of the saw bench.
•
Be sure all clamp handles are tight before starting
any operation.
•
Be sure all blade and flanges are clean and the larger face
of the clamp washer is against the blade. Tighten the arbor
nut securely.
•
Make sure that the riving knife is adjusted to the correct
distance from the blade - maximum 8 mm.
•
Never operate the saw for through cut without the guard and
riving knife.
•
Do not apply lubricants to the blade when it is running.
•
Always keep the push stick in its store place when not in use.
•
Do not use the guard for handling or transportation.
•
Do not exert side pressure on the saw blade.
•
Never cut light alloy. The machine is not designed for
this application.
•
Do not use abrasive disc or diamond cutting wheels.
•
In case of machine failure, immediately switch the machine
off and remove from the power source. Report the failure and
36
mark the machine in suitable form which prevents that other
persons use the defective machine.
•
When the saw blade is blocked due to abnormal feed force
during cutting, ALWAYS switch the machine off and remove
from the power source. Remove the workpiece and ensure that
the saw blade runs free. Turn the machine on and start a new
cutting operation with reduced feed force.
•
NEVER attempt to cut a stack of loose pieces of material
which could cause loss of control or kickback. Support all
materials securely.
•
Take care that the blade guard is properly positioned. When
sawing, it must always face against the workpiece.
Saw Blades
•
Do not use saw blades that do not conform to the dimensions
stated in the Technical Data. Do not use any spacers to make
a blade fit onto the spindle. Use only the blades specified in this
manual, complying with EN847-1:2017, if intended for wood
and similar materials.
•
The maximunm speed of the saw blade shall always be
greater than or at least equal to the speed marked on the
rating plate of the tool.
•
The saw blade diameter must be in accordance with the
markings on rating plate of the tool.
•
Consider applying specially designed noise-reduction blades.
•
Do not use high steel (HS) saw blades.
•
Do not use cracked or damaged saw blades.
•
Ensure that the chosen saw blade is suitable for the material
to be cut.
•
Always wear gloves for handling saw blades and rough
material. Saw blades should be carried in a holder
wherever practicable.
Residual risks
The following risks are inherent to the use of saws:
•
injuries caused by touching the rotating parts
In spite of the application of the relevant safety regulations
and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual risks
cannot be avoided. These are:
•
Impairment of hearing.
•
Risk of accidents caused by the uncovered parts of the rotating
saw blade.
•
Risk of injury when changing the saw blade with
unprotected hands.
•
Risk of squeezing fingers when opening the guards.
•
Health hazards caused by breathing dust developed when
sawing wood, especially oak, beech and MDF.
The following factors are of influence to noise production:
•
the material to be cut
•
the type of saw blade
•
the feed force
•
machine maintenance
The following factors are of influence to dust exposure:
•
worn saw blade
•
dust extractor with air velocity less than 20 m/s
•
workpiece not exactly guided
