Safety regulations

f) For the riving knife to work, they must be engaged in the workpiece.

The riving knife are 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 thick-

ness of the riving knife and the cutting width of the saw blade must be

wider than the thickness of the riving knife.

Safety information for sawing

a) m DANGER: Do not place your hands and ﬁngers in the sawing area or

close to the saw blade.

A moment of carelessness or a slip could steer your hand towards the saw

blade and result in serious injuries.

b) Only guide the workpiece against the rotational direction of the saw

blade or cutting tool. Guiding the workpiece in the same direction as the

rotational direction of the saw blade above the table can lead to the work-

piece and your hand being drawn into the saw blade.

c) When performing longitudinal cuts, never use the mitre stop to guide

the workpiece, and when transverse cutting with the mitre stop never

additionally use the parallel stop for longitudinal adjustment. Simul-

taneously guiding the workpiece with the parallel stop and mitre stop in-

creases the probability that the saw blade will jam and kickback will result.

d) When performing longitudinal cuts, always apply the feed force to the

workpiece between the stop rail and the saw blade. Use a push rod if

the distance between the stop rail and saw blade is less than 150 mm,

and a push block if the distance is less than 50 mm. This type of working

aid ensures that your hands remain a safe distance from the saw blade.

e) Only use the push rod provided by the manufacturer, or a push rod

that has been produced in accordance with instructions. The push rod

ensures a sufﬁcient distance between the hand and saw blade.

f) Never use a damaged or partially sawn push rod. A damaged push rod

may break and lead to your hand running into the saw blade.

g) Never work “freehand”. Always use the parallel stop or the mitre stop

to position and guide the workpiece. “Freehand” means supporting or

guiding the workpiece with the hands, rather than using the parallel

stop or mitre stop. Free-handed sawing leads to incorrect alignment, jam-
