Read the operating instructions carefully before use

Save these instructions for future reference.

General safety information

  • Failure to follow all instructions and safety information may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
  • Read all the operating instructions before using the tool, and ensure you follow all safety information.
  • The term 'power tool' in the safety information below refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery operated (coreless) power tool.

1) Work area

A. Keep the work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
B. Do not operate power tools in explosive environments, for example in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which can ignite dust or fumes.
C. Keep children and bystanders at a safe distance while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control of the tool.

2) Electrical safety

A. The power tool plug must fit the power outlet. Never modify the plug in any way.
B. Never use an adapter together with earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electrocution.
C. Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electrocution if your body is earthed or grounded.
D. Do not expose power tools to rain or moisture. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electrocution.
E. Do not abuse the power cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Ensure that the power cord is protected from heat and that it does not come into contact with oil, sharp edges or the tool's moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electrocution.
E. When operating the power tool outdoors, only use an extension cord approved for outdoor use. Using a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electrocution.
C. If operating a power tool in a clamp location is unavoidable, use a power supply that is protected with a residual current device (RCD). Using an RCD reduces the risk of electrocution.

3) Personal safety

EN

D. Avoid unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before plugging in the power cord and/or battery pack, lifting or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energizing power tools that have the switch in the no-position invites accidents.
E. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before starting the power tool. Any wrench or key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
F. Do not overreach. Keep a proper footing and balance at all times. This will enable you to have better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
C. Wear appropriate clothing. Do not wear loose-fitting clothes or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can get caught in moving parts.
II. If there is equipment for dust extraction and dust collection, this should be connected and used correctly. The use of such devices 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 tool will work better and be safer with the load for which it is designed.
B. Do not use the power tool if it cannot be switched on or off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
C. Remove the power cord and/or battery before making any adjustments, replacing accessories or storing the power tool. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of accidentally starting the power tool.
D. Power tools that are not being used should be stored out of the reach of children. Never let children or persons unfamiliar with the power tool or who have not read these instructions operate it.
C. Maintain the power tool. Check that moving parts are correctly adjusted and move freely, that no parts are incorrectly mounted or broken and that there are no other factors that can affect how it works.
F. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before using again. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
C. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
II. Use the power tool, accessories and blades, etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. It may be dangerous to use power tools for purposes other than those for which they are intended.

5) Service

The power tool may only be serviced by qualified service personnel using identical spare parts. This will ensure that safety is maintained when using the power tool.

SPECIFIC SAFETY INFORMATION FOR THE CROSSCUT/MITRE SAW

- All warning symbols on the power tool must be clearly visible at all times.

- Do not place any objects on top of the tool. If the tool tips over or you accidentally touch the blade,

  • Only guide the saw blade towards the workpiece when the machine is switched on. Otherwise, there is risk of kickback if the saw blade becomes wedged in the workpiece.
  • Keep the handles dry, clean and free of oil and grease. Greasy and oily handles are slippery and may cause you to lose control.
  • Operate the power tool only when the work area is clear of adjusting tools, wood chips, etc. Only the workpiece must be in this area. Small pieces of wood or other objects that come in contact with the rotating saw blade may strike the operator at high speed.
  • Keep the floor clear of wood chips and material remainders, as these may cause you to slip or stumble.
  • Always firmly clamp the workpiece. It is safer to secure it with a clamp than to hold it with your hand. Do not saw a workpiece that is not secured in place - the clearance of your hand in relation to the rotating saw blade is too small if it slips.
  • Only use power tools suitable for the intended material - overheating may occur otherwise.
  • If the saw blade should become jammed, switch the machine off and hold the workpiece in place until the saw blade comes to a complete stop. To prevent kickback, do not remove the workpiece until the saw blade has come to a complete stop. Correct the cause of the saw blade jamming before restarting the machine.
  • Never use dull, cracked, bent or damaged saw blades. Unsharpened or improperly set saw blades produce narrow kerf. This causes excessive friction, blade binding and the risk of kickback.
  • Always use the correct size blades and arbor holes (e.g. star-shaped or round). Saw blades that do not match the mounting hardware of the saw will soon run eccentrically, causing loss of control. Never use HSS (high speed steel) saw blades. This type of blade breaks easily.
  • After working, do not touch the saw blade until it has cooled. The saw blade gets very hot while you are working.
  • Never operate the tool without the insert plate. Replace defective insert plates. If there is a fault with the insert plate, the blade may injure you.
  • Check the power cord regularly. If it is damaged, it should be replaced by an authorised service representative. If the extension cord is damaged, it should be replaced. This will ensure that safety is maintained.
    • Always store the power tool safely. The storage location must be dry and lockable to protect the machine from damage in storage and prevent it from being operated by untrained persons.
  • Never leave the machine unattended before it has come to a complete stop. Cutting tools that are still running may cause injury.
  • Never use a power tool when the cable is damaged. If the cable is damaged while working, do not touch it and pull out the plug. Damaged cords will increase the risk of electric shock.
