e) Adjust the riving knife as described in this in-

struction manual. Incorrect spacing, positioning

and alignment can make the riving knife ine󰀨ec-

tive in reducing the likelihood of kickback.

f) For the riving knife to work, they must be en-

gaged in the workpiece. The riving knife is inef-

fective 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 thickness of the riving knife and

the cutting width of the saw blade must be wider

than the thickness of the riving knife.

Cutting procedures warnings

a) m DANGER: Never place your ngers or

hands in the vicinity or in line with the saw

blade. A moment of inattention or a slip could di-

rect your hand towards the saw blade and result

in serious personal injury.

b) Feed the workpiece into the saw blade or

cutter only against the direction of rotation.

Feeding the workpiece in the same direction that

the saw blade is rotating above the table may re-

sult in the workpiece, and your hand, being pulled

into the saw blade.

c) Never use the mitre gauge to feed the work-

piece when ripping and do not use the rip

fence as a length stop when cross cutting

with the mitre gauge. Guiding the workpiece

with the rip fence and the mitre gauge at the same

time increases the likelihood of saw blade binding

and kickback.

d) When ripping, always apply the workpiece

feeding force between the fence and the saw

blade. Use a push stick when the distance

between the fence and the saw blade is less

than 150 mm, and use a push block when this

distance is less than 50 mm. “Work helping” de-

vices will keep your hand at a safe distance from

the saw blade.

e) Use only the push stick provided by the man-

ufacturer or constructed in accordance with

the instructions. This push stick provides su󰀩-

cient distance of the hand from the saw blade.

f) Never use a damaged or cut push stick. A dam-

aged push stick may break causing your hand to

slip into the saw blade.

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 pow-

er tool for operations di󰀨erent from those intended

could result in a hazardous situation.

h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces

dry, clean and free from oil and grease.

Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not

allow for safe handling and control of the tool in

unexpected situations.

5. Service

a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualied

repair person using only identical replace-

ment parts. This will ensure that the safety of the

power tool is maintained.

m WARNING

Danger due to electromagnetic eld

This power tool generates an electromagnetic eld

during operation. This eld can impair active or pas-

sive medical implants under certain conditions.

- In order to prevent the risk of serious or deadly

injuries, we recommend that persons with medi-

cal implants consult with their physician and the

manufacturer of the medical implant prior to op-

erating the power tool.

Safety instructions for table saws

Guarding related warnings

a) Keep guards in place. Guards must be in work-

ing order and be properly mounted. A guard that

is loose, damaged, or is not functioning correctly

must be repaired or replaced.

b) Always use saw blade guard and riving knife

for every through-cutting operation. For

through-cutting operations where the saw blade

cuts completely through the thickness of the

workpiece, the guard and other safety devices

help reduce the risk of injury.

c) Immediately reattach the guarding system af-

ter completing an operation (such as rabbet-

ing, dadoing or resawing cuts) which requires

removal of the saw blade guard and/or riving

knife. The guard and riving knife help to reduce

the risk of injury.

d) Make sure the saw blade is not contacting the

guard, riving knife or the workpiece before

the switch is turned on. Inadvertent contact of

these items with the saw blade could cause a haz-

ardous condition.
