Safety Precautions

– Warning! Do not use damaged, cracked or deformed
saw blades.
– Replace a worn table insert. Regrinding is not allowed.
– Only use saw blades recommended by the manufacturer
which conform to EN 847-1. Warning! When changing
the saw blade ensure that the cutting width is not smaller
and the main blade thickness of the saw blade not grea-
ter than the thickness of the riving knife!
– Make sure that a saw blade is selected which is appro-
priate for the material to be cut.
- Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. This in-
cludes: Hearing protection to reduce the risk of becoming
hard of hearing, breathing respirator to reduce the risk of
inhaling hazardous dust.
- Wear gloves when handling saw blades and rough mate-
rials.
- Whenever practicable, saw blades should be carried in
a container.
– Wear safety goggles. Any splinters, chips and dusts
which are ejected from the device when it is in operation
may cause sight loss.
– Connect the power tool to a dust collection device when
sawing wood. Among other things, the emission of dust
is affected by the type of material to be machined, the
importance of local deposition (capture or source) and
the correct setting of hoods/deflector plates/guide me-
chanisms.
- Do not use any saw blades made of high-alloy high-
speed steel (HSS).
– Always store the push stick or push block in its holder on
the power tool when not in use.

Maintenance and Servicing

– Always remove the mains plug when carrying out any
adjustments or maintenance work.
– The cause of the noise is influenced by various factors, in-
cluding the properties of the blades, the condition of the
saw blade and power tool. If possible, use saw blades
that are designed to reduce the noise level, service the
power tool and tool attachments regularly and repair
them if necessary to reduce noise.
- Report any faults to the power tool, safety devices or the
tool attachment as soon as they are discovered to the
person responsible for safety.

Safe Working

– Use the push stick or the handle with push block to pass
the workpiece safely past the saw blade.
– Make sure that the riving knife is always used and that
this is correctly adjusted.
– Use the upper blade guard and adjust it correctly.
– Use only saw blades whose maximum speed is not lower
than the maximum spindle speed of the tool being used
and which are suitable for the material to be cut.
– Do not create any rebates or grooves unless a suitable
protective device, such as a tunnel guard, is attached
above the saw table.
– Circular saws must not be used for slotting (cutting
grooves which end in the workpiece).
– When transporting the power tool, use only the transport
devices supplied. Never use the guards for handling or
transporting the tool.
- During transport, make sure that the top part of the saw
blade is covered, for example with the guard.
– Ensure that the only spacer washers and spindle rings
which are used are suitable for the purpose stated by the
manufacturer.
– The floor around the machine must be flat, clean and free
of loose particles such as chips and cutting residues.
– Working position always to the side of the saw blade.
– Do not remove any cutting residues or other parts of the
workpiece from the cutting area for as long as the ma-
chine is running and the sawing unit is not yet in the rest
position.
– Secure long workpieces against tilting at the end of the
cutting operation (e.g. unwinding stand or roller stand).
– Caution! long workpieces against tilting at the end
of the cutting operation (e.g. unwinding stand or roller
stand).
– Caution! Never remove any loose splinters, chips or jam-
med pieces of wood when the saw blade is still running.
• Always switch off the machine and remove the plug
before repairing any faults or removing jammed pieces
of wood.
• Always switch off the motor and remove the plug before
carrying out any conversions or adjustment, measurement
and cleaning work.
• Before switching on, check that the spanners and adjust-
ment tools have been removed.
Warning! During operation, this power tool produces an elec-
tromagnetic field. Under certain circumstances, this field may
negatively affect active or passive medical implants. In order to
reduce the danger of serious or fatal injuries, we recommend
that individuals who wear medical implants should consult their
doctor and the manufacturer of the implant before operating the
power tool.
Safety instructions
for handling saw blades
1 Only use tools which you know how to handle.
2 Pay attention to the maximum speed. The maximum speed
stated on the tool being used must not be exceeded. Keep
within the speed range if one is specified.
3 Note the direction of rotation of the motor and saw blade.
4 Circular saw blades with cracks in them must be taken out of
service (repair is not permitted).
5 Tools with visible cracks must not be used.
6 Tools must be cleaned regularly.
7 Handle the tools used with care. It is best to store these in
their original packaging or special containers. Always wear
protective gloves to improve your grip and further reduce the
risk of injury.
8 Before using any of the tools, ensure that all protective de-
