1) Measured according to EN ISO 3746: 2010, loaded, hazardousness K=4 dB (A)

The values stated are emission values and as such do not necessarily constitute values which are safe for the workplace. Although there is a correlation between emission levels and environmental impact levels, whether further precautions are necessary cannot be derived from this. Factors in uencing the actually present environ

mental impact level in the workplace include the characteristics of the work area and other noise sources, i.e. the number of machines and other neighbouring work processes. The permitted workplace values can likewise vary from country to country. This information is intended to assist the user in estimating hazards and risks.

It is necessary to follow all technical specications and safety instructions. Pieces of wood that are too short, too light or too thin to get caught by the barbs in the feed cradle must not be processed by the machine. The machine may only be used if it is fully assem

bled. Operation of a machine that is not fully assem- bled is strictly prohibited. The machine may only be operated by one person. Make sure there is nobody present in the dange

rous area. The minimum distance is 2 m. ENGLISH28

Residual Risk Risk of injury! In spite of compliance with all relevant design regulations, dangers may still present themselves when the machine is operated, e.g.:

• Risk of injury to ngers and hands. Never put your hands in the saw blade area.

• Parts of workpieces and tools y o from damaged tools. Wear eye protectors.

• Noise emission: It is necessary to wear ear protec

• Wood dust emission: Wear a respirator. Despite the observance of the operating instructions there still may be some hidden residual risks. Residual risks may be minimised by following the safety instructions and use as designated provisions and the Operating Instructions. The exposure to dust is inuenced by the type of the material processed. It is important to use local exhaust (catching near the source) and adjust well the exhaust covers, guide elements and the grab channels. Dust produced during work is often harmful and must not get in your body. Use the exhauster and wear an appropriate respirator, too. Remove tho- roughly any deposited dust, e.g. by vacuuming. Use saw blades designed to reduce emitted noise. Keep the machine and saw blade running. To minimise noise production, the tool must be sharpened and all elements for noise minimisation (covers, etc.) must be properly adjusted. Emergency procedure Conduct a rst-aid procedure adequate to the injury and summon qualied medical attendance as quickly as possible. Protect the injured person from further harm and calm them down. If you seek help,state the following pieces ofinformation: 1. Accident site, 2. Accident type, 3. Number of injured persons, 4. Injury type(s) Mains Connection Operation is only allowed with a safety switch against stray current (RCD max. stray current of 30mA). Before putting into operation, a qualied electri

cian must check whether electric safety measures required are in place. Any national regulations in this regard must be complied with. Electric connection to a socket. It is necessary to make sure the connecting socket was not near water and humidity and the plug was protected against humidity. Check the voltage. Technical data given on the type label must correspond with electric network voltage. Only use splash proof extension cables approved for outdoor purposes. Check the cable and/or socket for damages before the appliance putting into operation. In case dama

ge let repaired in authorized workshop To avoid danger, a damaged mains supply pipe must be replaced by the manufacturer. Do not under any circumstances attempt any repair yourself. Cable connections to be separated by pulling the plug only. Pulling the cable could damage both the cable and plug. As a result, electric safety would no longer be guaranteed.

General Power Tool Safety Warnings WARNING Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, re and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term „power tool“ in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool and battery-ope

rated (cordless) power tool.

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents. b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo

spheres, such as in the presence of ammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes. c) Keep children and bystanders away while ope

rating a power tool.Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2) Electrical safety

a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodied plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock. b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded. c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet con

ditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock. e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock. ENGLISH EN30 f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the inuence of drugs, alcohol or medi

cation. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protectiveequipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protectionused for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries. c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the o-position beforeconnecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your nger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents. d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury. e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations. f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothingand gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelle

ry or long hair can be caught in moving parts. g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

4) Power tool use and care

a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed. b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and o. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired. c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from thepower tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storingpower tools. Such pre

ventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally. d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of chil

dren and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users. e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts,breakage of parts and any other condition that may aect the power tool’soperation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools. f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control. g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations dierent from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualied repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
