Safety advice relating
specifically to this device
Safety precautions:
J
Do not use blunt, cracked, distorted
or damaged saw blades. Saw blades
with blunt or misaligned teeth are in effect too
wide for the designed saw gap and this gives
rise to increased friction, jamming and kickback.
J
Always use a saw blade of the correct
size and with the appropriate central
fixing hole bore (e.g. star-shaped or
round). Saw blades that do not correspond
with the attachment components on the saw will
not run true and could lead to loss of control.
J
Replace table inserts when worn out.
J
Never operate the electrical power
tool without the table insert. Replace a
table insert if it has defects.
J
Always use recommended saw
blades complying with EN 847-1.
Note: When changing to a different saw
blade make sure that the cutting width is greater
and the stock thickness smaller than the thick-
ness of the riving knife.
J
Make sure that you use a saw blade suitable
for the material you are cutting.
J
If necessary wear suitable personal protective
clothing.
