Symbols And Their Meaning; Additional Safety Warnings - Bosch GTS 10 XC Professional Manual Original

Make sure that the saw blade is installed to rotate in
u
the proper direction. Do not use grinding wheels, wire
brushes, or abrasive wheels on a table saw. Improper
saw blade installation or use of accessories not recom-
mended may cause serious injury.

Additional safety warnings

When mounting the saw blade, wear protective
u
gloves. This poses a risk of injury.
Do not use HSS saw blades. Such saw blades can easily
u
break.
Only use saw blades that match the specifications
u
given in this operating manual and that are tested and
marked in accordance with EN 847-1
Never use the tool without the table insert. Replace
u
table insert if defective. Without flawless table inserts,
injuries are possible from the saw blade.
Keep your work area clean. Material mixtures are partic-
u
ularly hazardous. Light metal dust may catch fire or ex-
plode.
Choose the saw blade suited to the material you want
u
to work on.
Only use saw blades that are recommended by the
u
power tool manufacturer and are suitable for using on
the material you want to saw.
Only advance the workpiece towards the saw blade
u
when it is running. Otherwise there is a risk of kickback
occurring if the saw blade catches in the workpiece.
