If the table insert is damaged or worn, have it replaced by an authorised service centre.
Rags, cloths, cord and string and the like should never be left around the work area.
Avoid cutting nails. Inspect the workpiece and remove all nails and other foreign objects before beginning
sawing.
Support the work properly.
Refrain from removing any cut-offs or other parts of the workpiece from the cutting area whilst the
machine is running and the saw head is not in the rest position.
Do not attempt to free a jammed blade before first switching off the machine.
Do not slow or stop a blade with a piece of wood. Let the blade come to rest naturally.
If you are interrupted when operating the saw, complete the process and switch off before looking up.
Periodically check that all nuts, bolts and other fixings are properly tightened.
Do not store materials or equipment above a machine in such a way that they could fall into it.
Always hold the saw on parts that are insulated. If you accidentally cut into hidden wiring or the saw s
own cable, the metal parts of the saw will become
immediately.
Never saw near combustible liquids or gases.
Note the direction of rotation of the motor and the blade.
Do not lock the movable guard in the open position and always ensure that it is working properly, freely
rotating
and returning to fully cover the teeth of the blade.
Connect the saw to a dust collection devise and ensure that it is operated properly. As the operator of the
saw, please make sure that you understand factors that influence exposure to dust, including the type of
material to be machined, the importance of local extraction and the proper adjustment of hoods/baffles/
shoots of your dust extraction system. We recommend that you always wear a dust mask when operating
this saw.
Wear gloves when handling saw blades and rough materials.
Saw blades shall be carried in a holder wherever possible.
Select saw blades in relation to the material being cut.
Use correctly sharpened saw blades and observe the maximum speed marked on the blade.
Take additional care when trenching (slotting).
The mitre saw can be safely carried by the carrying handle but only once it has been removed from the
mains power and secured in the locked down position.
Ensure that the arm is properly secure when bevelling.
Keep the floor area around the machine level, well maintained and free of loose materials.
Ensure that you are trained in the use,adjustment and operation of the machine.
Do not remove any cut-offs from the cutting area until the guard is fully locked in placed and the blade has
come to rest.
When cutting long pieces which extend well over the table width, ensure that the ends are adequately
supported at the same height as the saw table top. Supports should be positioned in such a way to ensure
that the workpiece does not fall to the ground once the cut has been made. A number of supports at regular
intervals may be required if the workpiece is extremely long.
