- Lead from lead-based paints,
- Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and
other masonry products, and
- Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated
lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending
on how often you do this type of work. To reduce
your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well
ventilated area, and work with approved safety
equipment, such as those dust masks that are
specially designed to filter out microscopic
particles.
This also applies to dust from other materials such
as some timber types (like oak or beech dust),
metals, asbestos. Other known diseases are e.g.
allergic reactions, respiratory diseases. Do not let
dust enter the body.
Observe the relevant guidelines and national
regulations for your material, staff, application and
place of application (e.g. occupational health and
safety regulations, disposal).
Collect the particles generated at the source, avoid
deposits in the surrounding area.
Use suitable accessories for special work. In this
way, fewer particles enter the environment in an
uncontrolled manner.
Use a suitable extraction unit.
Reduce dust exposure with the following
measures:
- do not direct the escaping particles and the
exhaust air stream at yourself or nearby persons
or on dust deposits,
- use an extraction unit and/or air purifiers,
- ensure good ventilation of the workplace and
keep clean using a vacuum cleaner. Sweeping or
blowing stirs up dust.
- Vacuum or wash the protective clothing. Do not
blow, beat or brush.
Hazard generated by modification of
the machine or use of parts not tested and
approved by the equipment manufacturer!
 Assemble tool in strict accordance with these
instructions.
 Use only parts approved by the equipment
manufacturer. This applies especially for:
– saw blades (for order numbers, refer to
chapter 13. Accessories).
– Safety devices.
– Cutting laser.
– Cutting line illumination.
 Do not change any parts.
 Ensure that the speed indicated on the saw
blade is at least the same as the speed
indicated on the saw.
Hazard generated by tool defects!
 Before every use check tool for possible
damage: before operating the tool all safety
devices, protective guards or slightly damaged
parts need to be checked for proper function as
specified. Check that moving parts are in
perfect working order and do not jam and check
whether parts are damaged. All parts must be
correctly installed and fulfil all conditions
necessary to ensure perfect operation of the
unit.
 Do not used any damaged or contorted saw
blades.
 Keep tool and accessories in good repair.
Observe the maintenance instructions.
 Damaged protective equipment and parts must
be repaired or replaced by a recognised
workshop. Have damaged switches replaced by
a service centre. Do not operate tool if the
switch cannot be turned ON or OFF.
 Keep handles free of oil and grease.
Risk of injury by noise!
 Wear hearing protection.
 Make sure the splitting wedge is not bent. A
bent splitting wedge will push the workpiece
against the side of the saw blade, causing
noise.
Danger from blocking work pieces or
work piece parts!
If blockage occurs:
1. switch machine off,
2. unplug mains cable,
3. wear gloves,
4. clear the blockage using a suitable tool.

6. Unpacking, assembly,
installation and transport
6.1 Unpacking
Caution!
Do not carry the saw bay the protective
equipment. Do not carry by the saw handle (9).
To carry, hold on the two sides under the lower
table.
Lift device up out of the packaging with help from
a second person.
6.2 Mount table extension (29)
1. Remove right and left table width extension
from the transport packaging.
2. Remove screws (37) at the guide rails of the
right and left table width extension.
3. Push the guide rails of the table width
extensions completely into the recesses.
Insert the table width extension with folding
length guide (28) on the right side.
4. Lift the device at the front legs, carefully swivel
it backwards and put it down so it will not fall
over.
5. Tighten again the screws (37) at the guide
rails.
6. Take the front legs of the device, carefully

6.3 Attaching the additional handle
The machine is supplied with a laser warning
label in German. Before using the machine, cover
this label with the relevant enclosed laser warning
label in your national language.
6.4 Installation
The device has to be mounted on a stable
support for safe working.
– The support can be either a firmly mounted work
top or work bench.
– Even when machining larger workpieces the
device has to have a secure stand.
– Before each cutting process, ensure that the
machine is standing securely.
– Long workpieces must get additional support
with suitable accessories.
Note:
For mobile use, the device can also be fixed to a
plywood or coreboard panel (500 mm x 500 mm,
at least 19 mm thick) using screws. During use,
the panel has to be fixed to a work bench using
screw clamps.
