(Original instructions)

To make a cut, raise the saw head and pull it out over

the workpiece without cutting, start the motor, press

the saw head down and push the saw through the

workpiece. Cutting on the pull stroke is likely to cause the

saw blade to climb on top of the workpiece and violently

throw the blade assembly towards the operator.

u Never cross your hand over the intended line of cut-

ting either in front or behind the saw blade. Supporting

the workpiece “cross handed” i.e. holding the workpiece to

the right of the saw blade with your left hand or vice versa

is very dangerous.

u Do not reach behind the fence with either hand closer

than 100 mm from either side of the saw blade, to

remove wood scraps, or for any other reason while

the blade is spinning. The proximity of the spinning saw

blade to your hand may not be obvious and you may be

seriously injured.

u Inspect your workpiece before cutting. If the work-

piece is bowed or warped, clamp it with the outside

bowed face toward the fence. Always make certain

that there is no gap between the workpiece, fence

and table along the line of the cut. Bent or warped

workpieces can twist or shift and may cause binding on

the spinning saw blade while cutting. There should be no

nails or foreign objects in the workpiece.

u Do not use the saw until the table is clear of all tools,

wood scraps, etc., except for the workpiece. Small de-

bris or loose pieces of wood or other objects that contact

the revolving blade can be thrown with high speed.

u Cut only one workpiece at a time. Stacked multiple

workpieces cannot be adequately clamped or braced and

may bind on the blade or shift during cutting.

u Ensure the mitre saw is mounted or placed on a level,

rm work surface before use. A level and rm work sur-

face reduces the risk of the mitre saw becoming unstable.

u Plan your work. Every time you change the bevel or

mitre angle setting, make sure the adjustable fence is

set correctly to support the workpiece and will not

interfere with the blade or the guarding system. With-

out turning the tool “ON” and with no workpiece on the

table, move the saw blade through a complete simulated

cut to assure there will be no interference or danger of

cutting the fence.

u Provide adequate support such as table extensions,

saw horses, etc. for a workpiece that is wider or

longer than the table top. Workpieces longer or wider

than the mitre saw table can tip if not securely supported.

If the cut-off piece or workpiece tips, it can lift the lower

guard or be thrown by the spinning blade.

u Do not use another person as a substitute for a table

extension or as additional support.

Unstable support for the workpiece can cause the blade to

bind or the workpiece to shift during the cutting operation

pulling you and the helper into the spinning blade.

u The cut-off piece must not be jammed or pressed by

any means against the spinning saw blade. If conned,

i.e. using length stops, the cut-off piece could get wedged

against the blade and thrown violently.

u Always use a clamp or a xture designed to properly

support round material such as rods or tubing. Rods

have a tendency to roll while being cut, causing the blade

to “bite” and pull the work with your hand into the blade.

u Let the blade reach full speed before contacting the

workpiece. This will reduce the risk of the workpiece

being thrown.

u If the workpiece or blade becomes jammed, turn the

mitre saw off. Wait for all moving parts to stop and

disconnect the plug from the power source and/or re-

move the battery pack. Then work to free the jammed

material. Continued sawing with a jammed workpiece

could cause loss of control or damage to the mitre saw.

u After nishing the cut, release the switch, hold the

saw head down and wait for the blade to stop before

removing the cut-off piece. Reaching with your hand

near the coasting blade is dangerous.

Additional safety instructions for mitre saws

u The intended use is described in this instruction manual.

The use of any accessory or attachment or performance

of any operation with this tool other than those recom-

mended in this instruction manual may present a risk of

personal injury and/or damage to property.

u Do not use cracked/bent/damaged/deformed saw blades.

u Replace the kerf plate when worn.

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.

u Do not use High Speed Steel (HSS) saw blades.

Warning! Contact with or inhalation of dusts

arising from sawing applications may endanger

the health of the operator and possible bystand-

ers. Wear a dust mask specically designed for

protection against dust and fumes and ensure

that persons within or entering the work area are

also protected.

u Do not work with material containing asbestos. Asbestos

is considered to be carcinogenic.

u Wear gloves when handling saw blades and rough

material (saw blades should be carried in a holder when

practicable).

u Wear hearing protection to reduce the risk of induced

hearing loss.
