be replaced after plunge cutting. Riving knife
causes interference during plunge cutting and can
create kickback.
e) Do not operate the saw if riving knife is bent.
Even a light interference can slow the closing rate
of a guard.
---------------------------------------------------
Do not use grinding wheels.
Pull the plug out of the plug socket before any
adjustments or servicing are performed.
Keep hands away from the rotating tool! Remove
chips and similar material only with the machine at
standstill.
Wear ear protectors.
Wear protective goggles.
Press the spindle locking button only when the
motor is at a standstill.
Do not reduce the speed of the saw blade by
pressing on the sides.
The movable safety guard must not be clamped in
the pulled-back position for sawing.
The movable safety guard must move freely, auto-
matically, easily and exactly back into its end posi-
tion.
When sawing materials that generate large quanti-
ties of dust, the machine must be cleaned regu-
larly. Make sure that the safety appliances, e.g. the
movable safety guard, are in perfect working
order.
Materials that generate dusts or vapours that may
be harmful to health (e.g. asbestos) must not be
processed.
Check the workpiece for foreign bodies. When
working, always make sure that no nails or other
similar materials are being sawed into.
If the saw blade blocks, turn the motor off immedi-
ately.
Do not try to saw extremely small workpieces.
During machining, the workpiece must be firmly
supported and secured against moving.
Dust from material such as paint containing lead,
some wood species, minerals and metal may be
harmful. Contact with or inhalation of the dust may
cause allergic reactions and/or respiratory
diseases to the operator or bystanders.
Certain kinds of dust are classified as carcinogenic
such as oak and beech dust especially in conjunc-
tion with additives for wood conditioning (chro-
mate, wood preservative). Material containing
asbestos must only be treated by specialists.

- Where the use of a dust extraction device is
possible it shall be used.
- To achieve a high level of dust collection, use a
suitable Metabo vacuum cleaner together with
this tool.
- The work place must be well ventilated.
- The use of a dust mask of filter class P2 is
recommended.
Follow national requirements for the materials you
want to work with.
Use a saw blade that is suitable for the material
being sawn.
Clean gummy or glue-contaminated saw blades.
Contaminated saw blades cause increased friction,
jamming of the saw blade and increase the risk of
back-kicks.
Avoid overheating of the saw tooth tips. Avoid
melting of the material when sawing plastic. Use
a saw blade that is suitable for the material being
sawn.
