ENGLISH (Original Instructions)

4. Power Tool Use And Care

a. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power

tool for your application. The correct power tool will

do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was

designed.

b. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not

turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be

controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be

repaired.

c. Disconnect the plug from the power source and/

or remove the battery pack, if detachable from

the power tool before making any adjustments,

changing accessories, or storing power tools.

Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of

starting the power tool accidentally.

d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children

and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the

power tool or these instructions to operate the

power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands

of untrained users.

e. Maintain power tools and accessories. Check

for misalignment or binding of moving parts,

breakage of parts and any other condition that

may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged,

have the power tool repaired before use. Many

accidents are caused by poorly maintained power

tools.

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 power tool for operations

different 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 qualified

repair person using only identical replacement

parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool

is maintained.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR MITRE SAWS

♦ Mitre saws are intended to cut wood or wood-like

products, they cannot be used with abrasive cut-

off wheels for cutting ferrous material such as

bars, rods, studs, etc. Abrasive dust causes moving

parts such as the lower guard to jam. Sparks from

abrasive cutting will burn the lower guard, the kerf

insert and other plastic parts.

♦ Use clamps to support the workpiece

wheneverpossible. If supporting the workpiece

by hand, you must always keep your hand at least

100 mm from either side of the saw blade. Do not

use this saw to cut pieces that are too small to be

securely clamped or held by hand. If your hand is

placed too close to the saw blade,there is an increased

risk of injury from blade contact.

♦ The workpiece must be stationary and clamped or

held against both the fence and the table. Do not

feed the workpiece into the blade or cut “freehand”

in any way. Unrestrained or moving workpieces could

be thrown at high speeds,causing injury.

♦ Push the saw through the workpiece. Do not

pull the saw through the workpiece. 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.

♦ Never cross your hand over the intended line of

cutting 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.

♦ 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.

♦ Inspect your workpiece before cutting. If the

workpiece 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.

♦ Do not use the saw until the table is clear of all

tools, wood scraps, etc., except for the workpiece.

Small debris or loose pieces of wood or other objects

that contact the revolving blade can be thrown with

high speed.

♦ 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.

♦ Ensure the mitre saw is mounted or placed on

a level, firm work surface before use.A level and

firm work surface reduces the risk of the mitre saw

becoming unstable.

♦ 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. Without 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.

♦ 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
