(Original instructions)

f. Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking levers must

be tight and secure before making cut. If blade

adjustment shifts while cutting, it may cause binding and

kickback.

a. Use extra caution when sawing into existing walls or

other blind areas. The protruding blade may cut objects

that can cause kickback.

Lower guard function

a. Check lower guard for proper closing before each

use. Do not operate the saw if lower guard does not

move freely and close instantly. Never clamp or tie the

lower guard into the open position. If saw is

accidentally dropped, lower guard may be bent. Raise the

lower guard with the retracting handle and make sure it

moves

freely and does not touch the blade or any other part, in all

angles and depths of cut.

b. Check the operation of the lower guard spring. If the

guard and the spring are not operating properly, they

must be serviced before use. Lower guard may operate

sluggishly due to damaged parts, gummy deposits, or a

build-up of debris.

c. Lower guard may be retracted manually only for

special cuts such as "plunge cuts" and "compound

cuts". Raise lower guard by retracting handle and as soon

as blade enters the material, the lower guard must be

released. For all other sawing, the lower guard should

operate automatically.

d. Always observe that the lower guard is covering the

blade before placing saw down on bench or oor. An

unprotected, coasting blade will cause the saw to walk

backwards, cutting whatever is in its path. Be aware of the

time it takes for the blade to stop after switch is released.

Riving knife function

a. Use the appropriate saw blade for the riving knife. For

the riving knife to function, the body of the blade must be

thinner than the riving knife and the cutting width of the

blade must be wider than the thickness of the riving knife.

b. Adjust the riving knife as described in this instruction

manual. Incorrect spacing, positioning and alignment can

make the riving knife ineffective in preventing kickback.

c. Always use the riving knife except when plunge

cutting. Riving knife must be replaced after plunge

cutting. Riving knife causes interference during plunge

cutting and can create kickback.

d. For the riving knife to work, it must be engaged in the

workpiece. The riving knife is ineffective in preventing

kickback during short cuts.

e. Do not operate the saw if riving knife is bent. Even a

light interference can slow the closing rate of a guard.

Residual risks.

Additional residual risks may arise when using the tool which

may not be included in the enclosed safety warnings. These

risks can arise from misuse, prolonged use etc.

Even with the application of the relevant safety regulations

and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual

risks can not be avoided. These include:

u Injuries caused by touching any rotating/moving parts.

u Injuries caused when changing any parts, blades or ac-

cessories.

u Injuries caused by prolonged use of a tool. When using

any tool for prolonged periods ensure you take regular

breaks.

u Impairment of hearing.

u Health hazards caused by breathing dust developed when

using your tool (example:- working with wood, especially

oak, beech and MDF.)

Saw blades

u Do not use blades of larger or smaller diameter than

recommended. For the proper blade rating refer to the

technical data. Use only the blades specied in this

manual, complying with EN 847-1.

ing children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental

capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless

they have been given supervision or instruction concern-

ing use of the appliance by a person responsible for their

safety.

u Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not

play with the appliance.

Vibration

The declared vibration emission values stated in the technical

data and the declaration of conformity have been measured

in accordance with a standard test method provided by

EN 60745 and may be used for comparing one tool with

another. The declared vibration emission value may also be

used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.

Warning! The vibration emission value during actual use of

the power tool can differ from the declared value depending

on the ways in which the tool is used. The vibration level may

increase above the level stated.
