c) The workpiece must be stationary and clamped
or held against both the fence and the table.
Do not feed the workpiece into the blade or
cut "freehand" in any way. Unrestrained or moving
workpieces could be thrown at high speeds, causing injury.
d) Push the saw through the workpiece. Do not
pull the saw through the workpiece. To make
a cut, raise the saw head and pull it out over
the workpiece without cutting, start the motor,
press the saw head down and push the saw
through the workpiece. Cutting on the pull stroke is
likely to cause the saw blade to climb on top of the work-
piece and violently throw the blade assembly towards the
operator.
e) Never cross your hand over the intended line of
cutting either in front or behind the saw blade.
Supporting the workpiece "cross handed" i.e. holding the
workpiece to the right of the saw blade with your left hand
or vice versa is very dangerous.
f) Do not reach behind the fence with either hand
closer than 100 mm from either side of the saw
blade, to remove wood scraps, or for any other
reason while the blade is spinning. The proximity
of the spinning saw blade to your hand may not be obvi-
ous and you may be seriously injured.
g) Inspect your workpiece before cutting. If the
workpiece is bowed or warped, clamp it with
the outside bowed face toward the fence. Al-
ways make certain that there is no gap be-
tween the workpiece, fence and table along
the line of the cut. Bent or warped workpieces can
twist or shift and may cause binding on the spinning saw
blade while cutting. There should be no nails or foreign
objects in the workpiece.
h) Do not use the saw until the table is clear of all
tools, wood scraps, etc., except for the work-
piece. Small debris or loose pieces of wood or other ob-
jects that contact the revolving blade can be thrown with
high speed.
i) Cut only one workpiece at a time. Stacked multiple
workpieces cannot be adequately clamped or braced and
may bind on the blade or shift during cutting.
j) Ensure the mitre saw is mounted or placed on
a level, firm work surface before use. A level and
firm work surface reduces the risk of the mitre saw becom-
ing unstable.
k) 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.
l) Provide adequate support such as table exten-
sions, saw horses, etc. for a workpiece that is
wider or longer than the table top. Workpieces
longer or wider than the mitre saw table can tip if not se-
curely supported. If the cut-off piece or workpiece tips, it
can lift the lower guard or be thrown by the spinning blade.

m) Do not use another person as a substitute for a
table extension or as additional support. Unsta-
ble support for the workpiece can cause the blade to bind
or the workpiece to shift during the cutting operation pull-
ing you and the helper into the spinning blade.
n) The cut-off piece must not be jammed or pressed
by any means against the spinning saw blade.
If confined, i.e. using length stops, the cut-off piece could
get wedged against the blade and thrown violently.
o) 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.
p) Let the blade reach full speed before contact-
ing the workpiece. This will reduce the risk of the work-
piece being thrown.
q) 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 con-
trol or damage to the mitre saw.
r) 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.
s) Hold the handle firmly when making an incom-
plete cut or when releasing the switch before
the saw head is completely in the down posi-
tion. The braking action of the saw may cause the saw
head to be suddenly pulled downward, causing a risk of
injury.
Safety Instructions for the handling of saw blades
1 Do not use damaged or deformed saw blades.
2 Do not use any insertion tools with cracks. Sort out cracked
insertion tools. Repairs are not permitted.
3 Do not use saw blades made of high speed steel.
4 Check the condition of the saw blades before using the
sliding compound mitre saw.
5 Make sure that a suitable saw blade for the material to
be cut is selected.
6 Only use saw blades recommended by the manufacturer.
Saw blades designed to cut wood and similar materials
must comply with EN 847-1.
7 Do not use saw blades made of high-speed alloy steel
(HSS steel).
8 Only use saw blades for which the maximum permissible
speed is not lower than the maximum spindle speed of the
sliding compound mitre saw and which are suitable for
the material to be cut.
9 Observe the saw blade direction of rotation.
10 Only insertion the saw blade if you have mastered their
use.
11 Observe the maximum speed. The maximum speed speci-
fied on the insertion tool may not be exceeded. If specified,
observe the speed range.
12 Clean grease, oil and water off of the clamping surfaces.
