Securely store unused electric tools
–
Unused electric tools should be stored in a dry,
elevated or closed location out of the reach of
children.
6
Do not overload your electric tool
–
They work better and more safely in the speci-
fied output range.
7
Use the correct electric tool
–
Do not use low-output electric tools for heavy work.
–
Do not use the electric tool for purposes for
which it is not intended. For example, do not
use handheld circular saws for the cutting of
branches or logs.
–
Do not use the electric tool to cut firewood.
8
Wear suitable clothing
–
Do not wear wide clothing or jewellery, which
can become entangled in moving parts.
–
When working outdoors, anti-slip footwear is
recommended.
–
Tie long hair back in a hair net.
9
Use protective equipment
–
Wear protective goggles.
–
Wear a mask when carrying out dust-creating
work.
10
Connect the dust extraction device
–
If connections for dust extraction and a collect-
ing device are present, make sure that they are
connected and used properly.
–
Operation in enclosed areas is only permitted
with a suitable extraction system.
11
Do not use the cable for purposes for which it is
not intended
–
Do not use the cable to pull the plug out of the
outlet. Protect the cable from heat, oil and sharp
edges.
12
Secure the workpiece
–
Use the clamping devices or a vice to hold the
workpiece in place. In this manner, it is held
more securely than with your hand.
–
An additional support is necessary for long
workpieces (table, trestle, etc.) in order to pre-
vent the machine from tipping over.
–
Always press the workpiece firmly against
the working plate and stop in order to prevent
bouncing and twisting of the workpiece.
13
Avoid abnormal posture
–
Make sure that you have secure footing and al-
ways maintain your balance.
–
Avoid awkward hand positions in which a sud-
den slip could cause one or both hands to come
into contact with the saw blade.
14
Take care of your tools
–
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean in order to
be able to work better and more safely.
–
Follow the instructions for lubrication and for
tool replacement.
–
Check the connection cable of the electric tool
regularly and have it replaced by a recognised
specialist when damaged.
–
Check extension cables regularly and replace
them when damaged.
Persons who operate and maintain the machine must
be familiar with the manual and must be informed
about potential dangers.
Any use beyond this is improper. The user/operator,
not the manufacturer, is responsible for damages or
injuries of any type resulting from this.
In addition, the applicable accident prevention regu-
lations must be strictly observed.
Other general occupational health and safety-related
rules and regulations must be observed.
The liability of the manufacturer and resulting dam-
ages are excluded in the event of modifications of
the machine.
Despite use as intended, specific risk factors cannot
be entirely eliminated. Due to the design and layout
of the machine, the following risks remain:
• Contact with the saw blade in the non-covered saw
area.
• Reaching into the running saw blade (cutting injury).
• Kick-back of workpieces and workpiece parts.
• Saw blade breakage.
• Ejection of faulty carbide parts of the saw blade.
• Hearing damage when the necessary hearing pro-
tection is not used.
• Harmful emissions of wood dusts during use in
enclosed areas.
Please observe that our equipment was not designed
with the intention of use for commercial or industrial
purposes. We assume no guarantee if the equipment
is used in commercial or industrial applications, or
for equivalent work.
5. Safety instructions
Attention!
The following basic safety measures must
be observed when using electric tools for protection
against electric shock, and the risk of injury and fire.
Read all these notices before using the electric tool
and keep the safety instructions for later reference.
Safe work
1
Keep the work area orderly
–
Disorder in the work area can lead to accidents.
2
Take environmental influences into account
–
Do not expose electric tools to rain.
–
Do not use electric tools in a damp or wet en-
vironment.
–
Make sure that the work area is well-illuminated.
–
Do not use electric tools where there is a risk of
fire or explosion.
3
Protect yourself from electric shock
–
Avoid physical contact with earthed parts (e.g.
pipes, radiators, electric ranges, cooling units).
4
Keep other persons away
–
Do not allow other persons, especially children,
to touch the electric tool or the cable. Keep them
away from your work area.
–
The operating person must be at least 18 years
of age; trainees must be at least 16 years, how-
