Additional Safety Warnings - Würth KGS 250-60 Traducción Del Manual De Instrucciones De Servicio Original

 Plan your work. Every time you change
the bevel or mitre angle setting, make
sure the adjustable fence is set correctly
to support the workpiece and will not
interfere with the blade or the guarding
system. Without turning the tool "ON" and with
no workpiece on the table, move the saw blade
through a complete simulated cut to assure there
will be no interference or danger of cutting the
fence.
 Provide adequate support such as table
extensions, saw horses, etc. for a work-
piece that is wider or longer than the
table top. Workpieces longer or wider than the
mitre saw table can tip if not securely supported. If
the cut-off piece or workpiece tips, it can lift the
lower guard or be thrown by the spinning blade.
 Do not use another person as a substitute
for a table extension or as additional sup-
port. Unstable support for the workpiece can
cause the blade to bind or the workpiece to shift
during the cutting operation pulling you and the
helper into the spinning blade.
 The cut-off piece must not be jammed or
pressed by any means against the spin-
ning saw blade. If confined, i.e. using length
stops, the cut-off piece could get wedged against
the blade and thrown violently.
 Always use a clamp or a fixture designed
to properly support round material such
as rods or tubing. Rods have a tendency to roll
while being cut, causing the blade to "bite" and pull
the work with your hand into the blade.
 Let the blade reach full speed before con-
tacting the workpiece. This will reduce the risk
of the workpiece being thrown.
 If the workpiece or blade becomes
jammed, turn the mitre saw off. Wait for
all moving parts to stop and disconnect
the plug from the power source and/or
remove the battery pack. Then work to free
the jammed material. Continued sawing with a
jammed workpiece could cause loss of control or
damage to the mitre saw.
 After finishing the cut, release the switch,
hold the saw head down and wait for the
blade to stop before removing the cut-off
piece. Reaching with your hand near the coasting
blade is dangerous.
 Hold the handle firmly when making an
incomplete cut or when releasing the
switch before the saw head is completely
in the down position. The braking action of the
saw may cause the saw head to be suddenly pulled
downward, causing a risk of injury.

Additional safety warnings

 Do not use the saw to cut other materials than those
recommended by the manufacturer.
 Do not operate the machine without guards in posi-
tion, or if guards do not function or are not main-
tained properly.
 Select the correct blade for the material to be cut.
 Use correctly sharpened saw blades.
 Make sure that the blade rotates in the correct
direction.
 USE ONLY CROSSCUT SAW BLADES recom-
mended for mitre saws. Do not use carbide tipped
blades with hook angles in excess of 7 degrees. Do
not use blades with deep gullets. These can deflect
and contact the guard, and can cause damage to
the machine and/or serious injury.
 Never attempt to stop a machine in motion rapidly
by jamming a tool or other means against the
blade; serious accidents can occur.
 Before using any accessory consult the instruction
manual.
 The improper use of an accessory can cause dam-
age.
 Ensure that the saw blade is mounted correctly
before use.
 Do not use blades of larger or smaller diameter
than recommended. For the proper blade rating
refer to the technical data. Use only the blades
specified in this manual, complying with EN 847-1.
 Do not use HIGH SPEED STEEL blades.
 Do not use cracked or damaged saw blades.
 Do not use any abrasive or diamond discs.
 Use only saw blades where the marked speed is at
least equal to the speed marked on the saw.
 Do not wedge anything against the fan to hold the
motor shaft.
 Never raise the blade guard manually unless the
saw is switched off and the mains plug has been
pulled. The guard can be raised by hand when
installing or removing saw blades or for inspection
of the saw.
