Danger!
When using the equipment, a few safety pre-
cautions must be observed to avoid injuries and
damage. Please read the complete operating
instructions and safety regulations with due care.
Keep this manual in a safe place, so that the in-
formation is available at all times. If you give the
equipment to any other person, hand over these
operating instructions and safety regulations as
well.We cannot accept any liability for damage
or accidents which arise due to a failure to follow
these instructions and the safety instructions.
1. Safety regulations
General safety information for power tools
Warning!
Read all the safety information, instructions,
illustrations and technical data provided on
or with this power tool. Failure to adhere to the
following instructions may result in electric shock,
fire and/or serious injury.
Keep all the safety information and instruc-
tions in a safe place for future use.
The term „power tool“ used in the safety informati-
on and instructions refers to power tools operated
from the mains power supply (with a power cable)
and to battery operated power tools (without a
power cable).
1. Workplace safety
a) Keep your work area clean and well lit.
Untidy or unlit work areas can result in acci-
dents.
b) Do not use this power tool in an area
where there is a risk of explosion and
where there are inflammable liquids,
gases or dust. Power tools generate sparks
that can ignite dust or vapors.
c) Keep children and other people away
from the power tool while you are using
it. If you are distracted you may lose control
of the power tool.
2. Electrical safety
a) The plug on the power tool must fit into
the socket. The socket must not be modi-
fied in any way. Do not use adapter plugs
together with power tools with a protecti-
ve earth. Unmodified plugs and matching so-
ckets will reduce the risk of an electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed surfaces
such as pipes, heating systems, stoves
and refrigerators. There is an increased risk
of suffering an electric shock if your body is
earthed.
c) Keep the power tool out of the rain and
away from moisture. The ingress of water
into an electric power tool increases the risk
of an electric shock.
d) Do not use the power cable for a purpose
for which it is not designed, for example
to carry the power tool, hang it up or to
pull the plug out of the socket. Keep the
power cable away from heat, oil, sharp
edges and moving parts. Power cables that
are damaged or tangled increase the risk of
an electric shock.
e) If you use an electric power tool out-
doors, use only extension cables that are
suitable for outdoor use. The use of an
extension cable which is suitable for outdoor
use reduces the risk of an electric shock.
f) If you cannot avoid using the power tool
in a damp location, use a residual current
device (RCD) circuit breaker. The use of a
residual current device (RCD) circuit breaker
will reduce the risk of suffering an electric
shock.
3. Safety of persons
a) Be careful, watch what you are doing and
be sensible and responsible when using
an electric power tool. Never use the po-
wer tool if you are tired or under the influ-
ence of drugs, alcohol or medication. One
moment of inattention when using the electric
tool can result in serious injuries.
b) Wear personal safety equipment and
always wear safety goggles. Wearing per-
sonal safety equipment such as dust masks,
non-slip safety shoes, a helmet or ear plugs,
depending on the type and application of the
tool, reduces the risk of injury.
c) Make sure that the tool cannot start up
accidentally. Ensure that the power tool is
switched offbefore you connect it to the
power supply and/or connect the battery
pack, pick it up or carry it. If you have your
finger on the switch while carrying the power
tool or if you connect the power tool to the
power supply while it is switched on, this may
cause accidents.
d) Remove all adjusting tools or wrenches
before you switch on the power tool. Any
tool or wrench in a rotating part of the power
tool could cause injuries.

e) Avoid abnormal working postures. Make
sure you stand squarely and keep your
balance at all times. This will enable you to
control the power tool better in unexpected
situations.
f) Wear suitable clothes. Never wear loose
fitting clothes or jewelry. Keep hair and
clothing away from moving parts. Loose
clothing, jewelry or long hair can be caught by
moving parts.
g) If dust extraction devices and dust coll-
ection devices can be fitted, they must be
connected and must be used correctly.
The use of a dust extractor can reduce the
dangers posed by dust.
h) Do not allow yourself to be lulled into a
false sense of security and do not ignore
the safety regulations covering electric
power tools, even if you are familiar with
the power tool after having used it many
times. Carelessness can lead to serious inju-
ries in just a fraction of a second.
4. Using and handling the power tool
a) Do not overload your power tool. Use the
correct electric tool for the job in hand.
The correct tool will enable you to work better
and more safely within the specific perfor-
mance range.
b) Do not use an electric power tool if the
switch is defective. An electric power tool
that cannot be switched on or offis dange-
rous and must be repaired.
c) Pull the plug out of the socket and/or
remove the removable battery pack be-
fore making any adjustments to the tool,
changing plug-in tool parts or putting the
power tool down. These precautions will
prevent the power tool starting accidentally.
d) Keep unused electric tools out of the
reach of children. Do not allow people
who are not familiar with the power tool
or who have not read these instructions
to use the power tool. Electric tools are
dangerous if they are used by inexperienced
people.
e) Look after power tools and plug-in tools
with care. Check that moving parts
function correctly and do not jam, and
whether any parts are broken or dama-
ged such that they adversely affect the
function of the power tool. Have damaged
parts repaired before you use the power
tool. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained electric tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Ca-
refully maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges will jam less and are easier to
control.
g) Use the power tool, plug-in tools, etc.
as set out in these instructions. Take ac-
count of the conditions in your work area
and the job in hand. Using electric tools for
purposes other than the one for which they
are designed can result in dangerous situa-
tions.
h) Keep the handles and grip surfaces dry,
clean and free from oil and grease. If the
handles and grip surfaces are slippery, it will
not be possible to operate and control the
power tool safely in unforeseen situations.
5. Service
a) Have your power tool repaired only by
trained personnel using only genuine
spare parts. This will ensure that your power
tool remains safe to use.
Special safety information for miter saws
Please note that your equipment may not have all
the functions described in this safety information.
Read the safety information carefully and observe
all the instructions required for your machine.
a) Miter saws are designed for cutting wood
or wood-type products. They are not
intended to be used for cutting ferrous
materials such as rods, bars, screws, etc.
Abrasive dust will lead to moving parts such
as the bottom guard hood getting blocked.
Sparks from cutting will burn the bottom gu-
ard hood, the insertion plate and other plastic
parts
b) If possible, use clamps to secure the
workpiece. If you hold the workpiece with
your hand, you must keep your hand at least
100 mm away from each side of the saw bla-
de at all times. Never use this saw for cutting
workpieces which are too small, to clamp
them or to hold them with your hand. If your
hand is too close to the saw blade there is a
greater risk of injury from contact with the saw
blade.
c) The workpiece must immovable and eit-
her securely clamped or pressed against
the stop and the table. Do not push the
workpiece into the saw blade and never cut it
“free-handed”. Loose or moving workpieces
could be catapulted out at high speed and
Anl_TC_SM_2131_2_Dual_EX_UKCA.indb 10Anl_TC_SM_2131_2_Dual_EX_UKCA.indb 10 30.09.2021 08:28:3530.09.2021 08:28:35

GB

cause injuries.
d) Push the saw through the workpiece.
Do not pull the saw backwards through
the workpiece.To make a cut, lift the saw
head and pull it over the workpiece without
cutting.Then switch on the motor, swing
the saw head down and push it through the
workpiece. If it is pulled to make a cut there
is a danger of the saw blade leaping up on
the workpiece and the saw blade unit being
hurled with force against the operator.
e) Never cross your hand over the intended
cutting line, either in front of or behind
the saw blade. Supporting the workpiece
“with crossed hands”, i.e. holding the work-
piece on the right-hand side next to the saw
blade with your left hand or vice versa is very
dangerous.
f) Do not reach behind the stop while the
saw blade is rotating. Never place your
hands any closer to the rotating saw blade
than the safety distance of 100 mm (this
applies to both sides of the saw blade, e.g.
when removing wood scraps).You may not
necessarily be able to see how close your
hands are to the rotating saw blade and you
could sustain serious injuries.
g) Check the workpiece before cutting. If the
workpiece is bent or warped, clamp it with the
side which is curved outward facing towards
the stop. Always make sure that there are
no gaps along the cutting line between the
workpiece, stop and table. Bent and warped
workpieces could twist or move position and
cause the rotating saw blade to get jammed
during cutting.There must be no nails or for-
eign bodies in the workpiece.
h) Do not use the saw before all tools, wood
scraps, etc., have been cleared from the tab-
le; only the workpiece is allowed to be on the
table. Small scraps, loose pieces of wood and
other objects which come into contact with
the rotating blade could be catapulted out at
high speed.
i) Only cut one workpiece at a time. Stacks
of more than one workpiece cannot be clam-
ped or held properly and could cause the
blade to jam or slip while sawing.
j) Make sure that the miter saw is stood on
a level and firm work surface before you
start using it. A level and firm work surface
will prevent any danger of the miter saw beco-
ming instable.
k) Plan your work. Whenever you adjust the
angle of the saw blade or the miter angle,
make sure that adjustable stop is correctly
adjusted and supports the workpiece without
coming into contact with the blade or the gu-
ard hood.With the machine switched offand
without the workpiece on the table, perform a
simulation of the complete movement of the
saw blade in order to check that there are no
obstructions and there is no risk of cutting
into the stop.
l) Where workpieces are wider or longer
than the table top, make sure that you
provide appropriate support for the work-
piece, e.g. in the form of table extensions or
sawing trestles. Workpieces which are longer
or wider than the table of the miter saw could
tilt if they are not supported securely. If a
piece of wood which has been cut offor the
workpiece tilts, it could push the bottom guard
hood up or be catapulted out by the rotating
saw blade out of control.
m) Do not use the assistance of another per-
son as a substitute for a table extension
or additional support. Instable support for
the workpiece could cause the saw blade
to jam. In addition, the workpiece could also
move while the cut is being performed and
pull you and your helper into the rotating bla-
de.
n) The piece which has been cut offmust
not be pressed against the rotating saw
blade. If space is restricted, e.g. if length
stops are used, the piece which has been cut
offcould get wedged in the blade and then
hurled out out of control.
o) The equipment is not allowed to be used
for cutting round material. Rods or poles
have a tendency to roll away during cutting,
which could result in the blade “catching” and
the workpiece in your hand being drawn into
the blade.
p) Allow the blade to reach its full before
you cut in the workpiece. This will reduce
the risk of the workpiece being catapulted
away.
q) If the workpiece gets jammed or the bla-
de gets blocked, switch offthe miter saw.
Wait until all moving parts have come to a
standstill, pull out the power plug and/or take
out the rechargeable battery. Then remove
the jammed material. If you continue sawing
when such a blockage occurs, this could lead
to a loss of control or damage to the miter
saw.
r) Release the switch when the cut has been
completed, hold the saw head down and
Anl_TC_SM_2131_2_Dual_EX_UKCA.indb 11Anl_TC_SM_2131_2_Dual_EX_UKCA.indb 11 30.09.2021 08:28:3530.09.2021 08:28:35

GB
- 12 -
wait until the blade has come to a stand-
still before you remove the piece which
has been cut off. It is extremely dangerous
to reach with your hand into the area anywhe-
re near the blade while it is slowing down.
s) Hold the handle very firmly if you want
to make an incomplete cut or if you re-
lease the switch before the saw head has
reached its bottom position. The braking
effect of the saw could cause the saw head to
be pulled down with a jerk, leading to a risk of
injury.
Additional safety precautions:
• Use saw blades which are designed for
the purpose and for the material being
cut.
• Use only blades which are recommended
by the manufacturer and comply with EN
847-1.
• Use only blades with diameters, hole dia-
meters and tooth pitches which conform
with the technical data set out in the ori-
ginal operating instructions.
• Use only blades with rotating speeds
shown on the blade which are equal to or
higher than the rotating speed shown on
the power tool.
• Do not use saw blades that are blunt,
bent or damaged.
• Check the direction of rotation whenever
you change the saw blade. There are ar-
rows marked on the machine and saw blade
to show the direction of rotation.They must
match.
• Wear gloves to avoid getting cut when
you transport and change the saw bla-
des. Whenever practicable, saw blades must
be carried in a container.
• Before use, check that the safety guard
for the saw blade is in proper working
order. If it does not close automatically or
is damaged, do not use the equipment any
more. In this case, contact the manufacturer
or an authorized customer service outlet to
get it professionally repaired.
• If a switch is damaged or defective, arran-
ge for it to be replaced by the manufac-
turer or an authorized customer service
outlet.
• Replace worn or damaged table inserts
in the saw table with a replacement part,
or arrange for them to be replaced by the
manufacturer or an authorized customer
service outlet.
• Only allow repairs to the equipment to
be carried out by the manufacturer or an
authorized customer service outlet using
original parts, otherwise the user may
suffer an accident.
• Connect a dust extractor to the extractor
adapter on the machine.
• Make sure that there is adequate stabi-
lity by always securing the machine to a
workbench or a table. Use the holes in the
machine‘s base frame to secure the machine.
Bolt the base frame to a workbench or a table.
• Secure long workpieces against falling
off, e.g. using standard roller stands.
• The extensions to the workpiece support
must be fastened and used at all times
while work is in progress
• The machine is designed for cutting
wood and wood-type materials. To prevent
the saw blade overheating, perform cuts
quickly using blades that are properly shar-
pened.
• Do not use the saw to cut fire wood.
• The clamping device for securing the
workpiece must be used at all times. Do
not cut workpieces which are too small to
clamp securely with the clamping device.
• Transport the machine by the carry hand-
les and the machine’s base frame only.
• If the machine is equipped with a laser,
this laser may not be replaced by a diffe-
rent type of laser. Repairs to the laser are
only allowed to be carried out by the manu-
facturer or an authorized customer service
outlet.
• The saw blade must be stationary whe-
never you carry out any tidying up or
cleaning work. Do not remove any cutting
residues or other parts of workpieces from
the cutting zone while the machine is running
and the saw unit is not at rest (at the top).
• If you need to use an extension cable,
use one with a minimum cross-section
of 1.5 mm² to ensure that the machine is
supplied with power.
• If you use a cable reel, the complete
cable must be pulled off the reel.
• Keep children and other people away
from the equipment. When not in use, stow
the equipment in a location that is out of
reach of children and unauthorized users.
• Pull out the power plug (or take out the
rechargeable battery) and check that the
blade does not touch the table or workpi-
ece stop in any cutting position.
