5. Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is
maintained.
m WARNING
Danger due to electromagnetic field
This power tool generates an electromagnetic field during opera-
tion. This field can impair active or passive medical implants under
certain conditions.
- In order to prevent the risk of serious or deadly injuries,
we recommend that persons with medical implants con-
sult with their physician and the manufacturer of the medi-
cal implant prior to operating the power tool.
Safety instructions for table saws
Guarding related warnings
a) Keep guards in place. Guards must be in work-
ing order and be properly mounted. A guard that
is loose, damaged, or is not functioning correctly must be
repaired or replaced.
b) Always use saw blade guard and riving knife for
every through-cutting operation. For through-cutting
operations where the saw blade cuts completely through the
thickness of the workpiece, the guard and other safety de-
vices help reduce the risk of injury.
c) Immediately reattach the guarding system af-
ter completing an operation (such as rabbet-
ing, dadoing or resawing cuts) which requires
removal of the saw blade guard and/or riving
knife. The guard and riving knife help to reduce the risk
of injury.
d) Make sure the saw blade is not contacting the
guard, riving knife or the workpiece before the
switch is turned on. Inadvertent contact of these items
with the saw blade could cause a hazardous condition.
e) Adjust the riving knife as described in this in-
struction manual. Incorrect spacing, positioning and
alignment can make the riving knife ineffective in reducing
the likelihood of kickback.
f) For the riving knife to work, they must be en-
gaged in the workpiece. The riving knife is ineffective
when cutting workpieces that are too short to be engaged
with the riving knife. Under these conditions a kickback
cannot be prevented by the riving knife.
g) Use the appropriate saw blade for the riving
knife. For the riving knife to function properly, the saw
blade diameter must match the appropriate riving knife
and the body of the saw blade must be thinner than the
thickness of the riving knife and the cutting width of the saw
blade must be wider than the thickness of the riving knife.

Cutting procedures warnings
a) m DANGER: Never place your fingers or hands
in the vicinity or in line with the saw blade. A
moment of inattention or a slip could direct your hand to-
wards the saw blade and result in serious personal injury.
b) Feed the workpiece into the saw blade or cut-
ter only against the direction of rotation. Feeding
the workpiece in the same direction that the saw blade is
rotating above the table may result in the workpiece, and
your hand, being pulled into the saw blade.
c) Never use the mitre gauge to feed the work-
piece when ripping and do not use the rip fence
as a length stop when cross cutting with the mi-
tre gauge. Guiding the workpiece with the rip fence and
the mitre gauge at the same time increases the likelihood of
saw blade binding and kickback.
d) When ripping, always apply the workpiece
feeding force between the fence and the saw
blade. Use a push stick when the distance be-
tween the fence and the saw blade is less than
150 mm, and use a push block when this dis-
tance is less than 50 mm. "Work helping" devices
will keep your hand at a safe distance from the saw blade.
e) Use only the push stick provided by the manu-
facturer or constructed in accordance with the
instructions. This push stick provides sufficient distance
of the hand from the saw blade.
f) Never use a damaged or cut push stick. A dam-
aged push stick may break causing your hand to slip into
the saw blade.
g) Do not perform any operation "freehand". Al-
ways use either the rip fence or the mitre gauge
to position and guide the workpiece. "Free-
hand" means using your hands to support or
guide the workpiece, in lieu of a rip fence or
mitre gauge. Freehand sawing leads to misalignment,
binding and kickback.
h) Never reach around or over a rotating saw
blade. Reaching for a workpiece may lead to accidental
contact with the moving saw blade.
i) Provide auxiliary workpiece support to the
rear and/or sides of the saw table for long
and/or wide workpieces to keep them level. A
long and/or wide workpiece has a tendency to pivot on
the table's edge, causing loss of control, saw blade bind-
ing and kickback.
j) Feed workpiece at an even pace. Do not bend
or twist the workpiece. If jamming occurs, turn
the tool off immediately, unplug the tool then
clear the jam. Jamming the saw blade by the workpiece
can cause kickback or stall the motor.
k) Do not remove pieces of cut-off material while
the saw is running. The material may become trapped
between the fence or inside the saw blade guard and the saw
blade pulling your fingers into the saw blade. Turn the saw off
and wait until the saw blade stops before removing material.
l) Use an auxiliary fence in contact with the table
top when ripping workpieces less than 2 mm
thick. A thin workpiece may wedge under the rip fence
and create a kickback.
