5.2 Special safety instructions
• In an emergency, switch the machine off directly and
pull out the mains plug.
• Observe all of these notes before and while working
with the saw.
• Never use the saw to cut firewood.
• The machine is equipped with a safety switch
against reactivation if the voltage drops.
• If an extension cable is required, make sure that its
cross-section is sufficient for the current consump-
tion of the saw. Minimum cross-section 1.5 mm
• Only use cable reels in the unrolled state.
• Personnel working on the machine must not be dis-
tracted.
• Under no circumstances should the saw blades be
braked by pushing against the side after switching
off the drive.
• Only install saw blades that are well sharpened, free
of cracks and not deformed.
• Faulty saw blades must be replaced immediately.
• Do not use saw blades that do not correspond to the
characteristics specified in these usage instructions.
• Ensure that all devices that cover the saw blade
work properly.
• Safety equipment on the machine must not be disas-
sembled or made unusable.
• Damaged or faulty protective devices must be re-
placed immediately.
• Do not cut workpieces that are too small in order to
keep them secure in your hands.
• Do not load the machine so much that it comes to
a standstill.
• Always press the workpiece firmly against the work-
ing plate.
• Never remove loose splinters, chips or jammed
wood pieces from the running saw blade.
• Switch off the machine to rectify any faults on
the blocked tool attachment. Pull out the mains
plug. Remove the blockage. Attention! Dan-
ger of injury due to saw blade! Wear protective
gloves! Perform a test run without a workpiece.
Make sure that no unusual noises or vibrations oc-
cur. If this is the case, switch the device off and con-
tact the manufacturer.
• Only carry out modifications, adjustments, measure-
ments and cleaning work when the motor is switched
off. Pull out the mains plug.
• Before switching on, make sure that keys and adjust-
ing tools are removed.
• Switch off the motor and pull out the mains plug
when leaving the work station.
• Electrical installation, repairs and maintenance work
may only be carried out by specialists.
• All protective and safety equipment must be reas-
sembled immediately after repair or when mainte-
nance is completed.
• The safety, operating and maintenance information
of the manufacturer, as well as the dimensions spec-
ified in the technical data, must be observed.
• The relevant accident prevention regulations and
.
the other generally accepted safety rules must be
2
observed.
• The saw is only intended for installation indoors.
• Workpieces that are smaller than the saw blade
guard can cause injuries to the hands and fingers.
Use a suitable aid!
• Avoid cramped hand positions when guiding the
workpiece and positions in which the hand would
slip directly into the saw blade.
• Always insert the saw blade so that the teeth point
down towards the saw table.
• Always set the correct blade tension in order to
avoid breaking the saw blades.
• Use extra care when cutting material with irregular
cutting profiles.
• When withdrawing the workpiece, teeth can get
caught in the kerf, especially if the shavings block
the kerf. In this case you should switch off the saw,
pull out the mains plug, open the kerf with a wedge
and remove the workpiece.
• Never leave the work station without setting down
the saw beforehand. Wait until the saw has come
to a standstill.
• Do not place, glue, or assemble any parts on the
work table while the saw is running.
• Do not switch on the saw until the work table is
cleared of material residues and tools. Only leave
the workpiece to be machined and any work aids
(wedges) on the workbench.
• Always wear safety goggles.
• Keep fingers at a safe distance from the saw blade.
