Threatened hazard or hazardous situation. Not observing this
instruction can lead to injuries or cause damage to property.
L
Important information on proper handling. Not observing this
instruction can lead to faults.
User information. This information helps you to use all the
functions optimally.
Assembly, operation and servicing. Here you are explained
exactly what to do.
Normal intended use
This construction circular saw is exclusively designed for lengthwise and
cross cutting of solid wood and plate material such as chipboard, wood
core plywood and MDF plates with square or rectangular cross section
and a thickness of max. 150mm in the open outside of enclosed areas
using carbide tipped circular saw blades acc. to EN 847-1. The saw blade
diameter must be between 445 and 450 mm.
Cross cuts may only be performed in conjunction with a mounted cross-
cutting fence.
Only materials that can be safely placed are allowed to be cut.
The use of saw blades made of HSS steel (high-alloy high speed steel) is
not permitted since this steel is hard and brittle. Risk of injury through saw
blade breakage and expulsion of saw blade pieces.
Normal intended use also includes the observance of the manufacturer's
operating, maintenance and repair conditions, as well as strict adherence
to the safety inspections listed in the instructions.
The relevant accident prevention regulations for the operation as well as
the other generally acknowledged occupational medicine and safety rules
must be complied with.
Any other use does not conform with the normal intended use of the
circular saw bench. The manufacturer is not liable for any resulting
damage; the user bears all risks!
Unauthorized modifications to the saw preclude any liability of the
manufacturer for resulting damages of any kind.
The saw may only be equipped, used and serviced by persons who are
familiar with it and have been instructed on the hazards. Repair works
may only be carried out by us or by a customer service agent nominated
by us.
This machine must not be used in potential explosive atmospheres.
Metallic parts (wires etc.) have unconditionally to be removed from the
material to be cut.
Risidual risks
Even if used properly, residual risks can exist even if the relevant safety
regulations are complied with due to the design determined by the intended
purpose.
Residual risks can be minimised if the “Safety instructions” and the “Normal
intended use” as well as the whole of the operating instructions are observed.
Observing these instructions, and taking proper care, will reduce the risk of
personal injury or damage to the equipment.
Danger of injury of fingers and hands by the tool (saw blade) or
work piece. Therefore, wear gloves (e.g. when replacing the saw blade).
Risk of injury when removing chips while the saw blade still rotates.
Only remove chips after the saw blade and the saw unit (motor) has
come to a standstill.
Injury by catapulted workpiece parts.
Throwback of the workpiece or workpiece parts.
Breaking or catapulting of saw blade.
Only operate the saw with complete and correctly attached safety
equipment and do not alter anything on the machine that could impair the
safety.
Emission of harmful wood dusts. Therefore, wear a dust mask.
Risk from electricity, by using non-standard electrical connections.
Touching live parts of opened electrical components.
Impairment of hearing when working on the machine for longer periods of
time without ear protection.
In addition, in spite of all the precautionary measures taken, non-obvious
residual risks can still exist.
