over the saw table.
Circular saws must not be used for slotting
■
jobs (cutting grooves which end in the
workpiece).
Use only blades whose permissible
■
maximum speed is not lower than the
maximum spindle speed of the bench-type
circular saw and of the material to be cut.
Use only the transport devices to move the
■
equipment. Never use the guards for
handling or moving the equipment.
While you are moving the machine it is best
■
to cover the top part of the blade, e.g. with
the guard.
Secure long workpieces against falling off at
■
the end of the cut (e.g. with a roller stand
etc.)

2.2.6 Additional instructions

Give these safety instructions to all persons
■
who work on the machine.
Do not use this saw to cut fire wood.
■
Do not use this saw to cross-cut
■
roundwood.
Caution! Hands and fingers may be injured
■
on the rotating saw blade.
The machine is equipped with a safety
■
switch to prevent it from being switched on
again accidentally after a power failure.
Before you use the machine for the first
■
time, check that the voltage marked on the
rating plate is the same as your supply
voltage.
If you need to use an extension cable, make
■
sure its conductor cross-section is big
enough for the saw's power consumption.
Minimum cross-section: 1 mm².
If you use a cable reel, the complete cable
■
must be pulled off the reel.
Check the power cable. Never use a faulty
■
or damaged power cable.
Operators have to be at least 18 years of
■
age. Trainees of at least 16 years of age are
allowed to use the machine under

and saw blade.
After you have switched off the motor, never
■
slow down the saw blade by applying
pressure to its side.
Only fit blades which are well sharpened
■
and have no cracks or deformations.
Never dismantle the machine's safety
■
devices or render them inoperative.
Faulty saw blades must be replaced
■
immediately.
Never use saw blades which do not comply
■
with the data specified in these operating
instructions.
It is imperative to make sure that all devices
■
which cover the saw blade are in good
working order.
Important: It is prohibited to use this saw to
■
make plunge cuts.
Damaged or faulty safety devices have to
■
be replaced immediately.
The splitter is an important safety device.
■
Not only does it guide the workpiece, it also
prevents the kerf closing behind the blade
so that there is no kickback from the
workpiece. Note the thickness of the splitter.
The splitter should never be thinner than the
saw blade body or thicker than the width of
its kerf.
The guard hood has to be lowered over the
■
workpiece for each cut.
Be sure to use a push stick when slitting
■
narrow workpieces (smaller than 120 mm in
width).
Never cut workpieces which are too small to
■
hold securely in your hand.
It is imperative for the parallel stop to be
■
clamped on the right-hand side of the blade
whenever you cut narrow workpieces to
size.
Always stand to the side of the saw blade
■
when working with the saw.
Never load the machine so much that it cuts
■
out.
Always press the workpiece firmly against
■
the saw table.
Make sure that off-cuts do not catch on the
■
saw blade crown. Risk of catapulting!
Refit all guards and safety devices
■
immediately after you have completed any
repairs or maintenance work.
