Safety instructions for mitre crosscut saws

■Mitre crosscut saws are designed for cutting wood or wood-like

products. They may not be used for cutting ferrous materials such

as rods, bars, screws, etc. Abrasive dust leads can cause blockages in

moving parts such as the lower blade guard. Sparks generated during

cutting can burn the lower blade guard, the insert plate and other

plastic parts.

■If possible, ﬁx the workpiece with clamps. If you are holding the

workpiece by hand, always keep your hand at least 100 mm from

either side of the saw blade. Do not use this saw to cut workpieces

that are too small to be clamped or held safely by hand. If your hand

is too close to the saw blade, there is an increased risk of injury from

contact with the saw blade.

■The workpiece must be held ﬁrmly in place and either clamped or

pressed against the fence and the table. Do not push the workpiece

into the saw blade and never cut "freehand". Loose or moving

workpieces could be thrown out at high speed and cause injury.

■Never put your hand over the intended cutting line, or in front of or

behind the saw blade. Supporting the workpiece with crossed hands,

i.e. holding the workpiece to the right of the saw blade with the left

hand or vice versa, is very dangerous.

■Do not reach behind the fence while the saw blade is turning.

Always maintain a safety distance of at least 100 mm between your

hand and the rotating saw blade (this applies to both sides of the

saw blade, e.g. when removing wood debris). The proximity of the

rotating saw blade to your hand is not always immediately apparent

and you could be seriously injured.

■Check the workpiece before starting the cut. If the workpiece is bent

or warped, clamp it with the outwardly curved side towards the fence.

Always make sure that there is no gap between the workpiece, fence

and table along the cutting line. Bent or warped workpieces can twist

or shift and cause the rotating saw blade to jam while cutting. Make

sure that there are no nails or foreign bodies in the workpiece.

■Do not use the saw until the table is free of tools, wood debris, etc.;

only the workpiece should be on the table. Small waste items, loose

pieces of wood or other objects that come into contact with the rotating

blade can be thrown out at high speed.

■Only cut one workpiece at once. Stacked workpieces cannot be

properly clamped or held in place and can cause the blade to jam or

slip during sawing.

■Ensure that the mitre crosscut saw is placed on a ﬂat, solid work

surface before use. A level and solid work surface reduces the risk

of the mitre crosscut saw becoming unstable.

■Plan your work. Whenever you adjust the saw blade bevel or mitre

angle, make sure that the adjustable fence is correctly set and supports

the workpiece without coming into contact with the blade or the

blade guard.

Without switching on the machine and with no workpiece on the table,

simulate a complete cutting movement using the saw blade to ensure

that there is no obstruction or danger of cutting into the fence.

■With workpieces that are wider or longer than the top of the table,

provide adequate support, e.g. using table extensions or a

sawhorse. Workpieces that are longer or wider than the table of the

mitre crosscut saw could tilt if they are not ﬁrmly supported. If a cut

piece of wood or the workpiece tips, it can lift the lower blade guard or

be thrown out uncontrollably by the rotating blade.

■Do not use other people instead of a table extension or for addi-

tional support. If the workpiece is not stably supported, the blade can

jam.

Also, the workpiece can shift during the cut and pull you and the helper

into the rotating blade.

■The cut-oﬀ piece must not be pressed against the rotating saw blade.

If there is not much space, e.g. when using longitudinal stops, the cut-oﬀ

piece can wedge into the blade and be thrown out violently.

■Always use a clamp or a suitable device to properly support round

material such as rods or pipes. Bars tend to roll away during cutting,

causing the blade to "bite" and the workpiece to be pulled into the

blade along with your hand.

■Allow the blade to reach full speed before cutting into the work-

piece. This reduces the risk of the workpiece being thrown out.

■If the workpiece becomes jammed or the blade jams, turn oﬀ the

mitre crosscut saw. Wait until all moving parts have come to a

standstill, unplug the appliance and/or remove the battery. Then

remove the jammed material. If you continue cutting despite such a

blockage, you may lose control or damage the mitre crosscut saw.

■When the cut is complete, release the switch, hold the saw head

down and wait for the blade to stop before removing the cut piece.

It is very dangerous to reach towards the emerging sheet with your

hand.

■Hold the handle ﬁrmly if you make an incomplete saw cut or if you

release the switch before the saw head has reached its lower position.

The braking eﬀect of the saw can cause the saw head to be pulled

down abruptly and thus lead to a risk of injury.

■Keep your work area clean! Material mixtures can be particularly

dangerous. Light metal dust can burn or explode.

■Do not use blunt, cracked, warped or damaged saw blades. Saw

blades with blunt or misaligned teeth may cause excessive friction as

the saw cut is too narrow, and this can cause a saw blade jam and

kickback.

■Do not use any saw blades made of high-alloy high-speed steel

(HSS steel). These saw blades can break easily.

■Always use saw blades of the correct size and with a suitable

mounting hole (e.g. square or round).Blades that do not match the

mounting hardware of the saw will run eccentrically, causing loss of

control.

■Never remove cutting residue, wood chips, etc. from the cutting area

while the power tool is running. Always place the tool arm in the idling

position and switch the power tool oﬀ.

■After ﬁnishing work, do not touch the saw blade until it has cooled

down. The saw blade becomes very hot during use.

Supplementary notes

■ Use only saw blades with diameters corresponding to the inscriptions

on the saw.

■ When sawing wood or other materials that can create dusts that are

hazardous to health, always connect a suitable, certiﬁed vacuum

extractor device.

■ Wear a dust mask when sawing wood.

■ Only use recommended saw blades.

■ Always wear ear muﬀs.

■ Do not allow the teeth of the saw blade to overheat.

■ When sawing plastic, avoid melting the plastic.

■ Always use the correct saw blade for the material being worked.

Supplementary instructions according to EN 847-1

■ The tools comply with the EN 847-1 standard.

■ Tools may only be used by trained and experienced operators who

know how to handle them.

■ Do not exceed the maximum speed indicated on the tool. If speciﬁed,

the speed range must be complied with.

■ Circular saw blades that are cracked must be taken out of service

(repair is not permitted).

■ Tools with visible cracks must be discarded.

■ Tools must be cleaned regularly.

■ Tool parts made of light metal alloys that are contaminated with residues,

e.g. resin, may only be cleaned with solvents that do not impair the

mechanical properties of these materials.
