SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mainsoperated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
1) Work area safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust.
Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
2) Electrical safety
a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed
(grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an
increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from
heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk or electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor
use reduce the risk of electric shock.
f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a RESIDUAL CURRENT DEVICE (RCD) protected supply.
Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
3) Personal safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool
while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power
tools may result in serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety
shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery
pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have
the switch on invites accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of
the power tool may result in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected
situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and
properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
h) Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become complacent and ignore tool safety principles.
A careless action can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.
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) Battery tool use and care
a) Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may
create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.
b) Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury
and fire.
General power tool safety warnings
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
WARNING: Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to
follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

English
1) Guarding related warnings
a) Keep guards in place. Guards must be in working 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, riving knife and anti-kickback pawls 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 after completing an operation (such as rabbeting) which requires removal
of the guard, riving knife and/or anti-kickback pawls. The guard, riving knife, and anti-kickback pawls 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 hazardous condition.
e) Adjust the riving knife as described in this instruction manual. Incorrect spacing, positioning and alignment can make the
riving knife ineffective in reducing the likelihood of kickback.
f) For the riving knife and anti-kickback pawls to work, they must be engaged in the workpiece. The riving knife and anti-
kickback pawls are ineffective when cutting workpieces that are too short to be engaged with the riving knife and anti-kickback
pawls. Under these conditions a kickback cannot be prevented by the riving knife and anti-kickback pawls.
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.
2. Safety instructions for sawing procedures
a) DANGER: Never place your fingers or hands in the vicinity or in line with the saw blade. A moment of inattention or a
slip could direct your hand towards the saw blade and result in serious personal injury.
b) Feed the workpiece into the saw blade only against the direction of rotation. Feeding the workpiece in the same direction
that the saw blade is rotating above the table may result in the workpiece, and your hand, being pulled into the saw blade.
c) Never use the mitre gauge to feed the workpiece 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” devices will keep your hand at a safe distance from the saw blade.
e) Use only the push stick provided by the manufacturer or constructed in accordance with the instructions. The push stick
provides sufficient distance of the hand from the saw blade.
f) Never use a damaged or cut push stick. A damaged push stick may break causing your hand to slip into the saw blade.
g) Do not perform any operation"freehand". Always use either the rip fence or the mitre gauge to position and guide the
workpiece. "Freehand" means using your hands to support or guide the workpiece, in lieu of a rip fence or mitre gauge. Freehand
sawing leads to misalignment, binding and kickback.
h) Never reach around or over a rotating saw blade. Reaching for a workpiece may lead to accidental contact with the moving
saw blade.
i) Provide auxiliary workpiece support to the rear and/or sides of the saw table for long and/or wide workpieces to keep
them level. A long and/or wide workpiece has a tendency to pivot on the table’s edge, causing loss of control, saw blade binding
and kickback.
j) Feed workpiece at an even pace. Do not bend or twist the workpiece. If jamming occurs, turn the tool off immediately,
unplug the tool then clear the jam. Jamming the saw blade by the workpiece can cause kickback or stall the motor.
k) Do not remove piece of cut-off material while the saw is running. The material may become trapped between the fence or
inside the saw blade guard and the saw blade pulling your fingers into the saw blade. Turn the saw off and wait until the saw blade
stops before removing material.
I) Use an auxiliary fence in contact with the table top when ripping workpieces less than 2 mm thick. A thin workpiece may
wedge under the rip fence and create a kickback.
3. Kickback causes and related warnings
Kickback is a sudden reaction of the workpiece due to a pinched, jammed saw blade or misaligned line of cut in the workpiece with
respect to the saw blade or when a part of the workpiece binds between the saw blade and the rip fence or other fixed object.
Most frequently during kickback, the workpiece is lifted from the table by the rear portion of the saw blade and is propelled towards the
Safety instructions for table saw
c) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or
other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together
may cause burns or a fire.
d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush
with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or
burns.
e) Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable
behaviour resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
f) Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above 130°C may
cause explosion.
g) Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or tool outside the temperature range specified in
the instructions. Charging improperly or at temperatures outside the specified range may damage the battery and increase the
risk of fire.
6) 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.
b) Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should only be performed by the manufacturer or authorized
service providers.

operator.
Kickback is the result of saw misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper precautions
as given below.
a) Never stand directly in line with the saw blade. Always position your body on the same side of the saw blade as the
fence rail. Kickback may propel the workpiece at high velocity towards anyone standing in front and in line with the saw blade.
b) Never reach over or in back of the saw blade to pull or to support the workpiece. Accidental contact with the saw blade
may occur or kickback may drag your fingers into the saw blade.
c) Never hold and press the workpiece that is being cut off against the rotating saw blade. Pressing the workpiece being cut
off against the saw blade will create a binding condition and kickback.
d) Align the fence to be parallel with the saw blade. A misaligned fence will pinch the workpiece against the saw blade and create
kickback.
e) Use a featherboard to guide the workpiece against the table and fence when making non-through cuts such as rabbeting.
A featherboard helps to control the workpiece in the event of a kickback.
f) Use extra caution when making a cut into blind areas of assembled workpieces. The protruding saw blade may cut objects
that can cause kickback.
g) Support large panels to minimise the risk of blade pinching and kickback. Large panels tend to sag under their own weight.
Support(s) must be placed under all portions of the panel overhanging the table top.
h) Use extra caution when cutting a workpiece that is twisted, knotted, warped or does not have a straight edge to guide
it with a mitre gauge or along the fence. A warped, knotted, or twisted workpiece is unstable and causes misalignment of the
kerf with the saw blade, binding and kickback.
i) Never cut more than one workpiece, stacked vertically or horizontally. The saw blade could pick up one or more pieces and
cause kickback.
j) When restarting the saw with the saw blade in the workpiece, centre the saw blade in the kerf so that the saw teeth are
not engaged in the material. If the saw blade binds, it may lift up the workpiece and cause kickback when the saw is restarted.
k) Keep saw blades clean, sharp, and with sufficient set. Never use warped saw blades or saw blades with cracked or
broken teeth. Sharp and properly set saw blades minimise binding, stalling and kickback.
4. Table saw operating procedure warnings
a) Turn off the table saw and disconnect the battery pack when removing the table insert, changing the saw blade or
making adjustments to the riving knife, anti-kickback pawls or blade guard, and when the machine is left unattended.
Precautionary measures will avoid accidents.
b) Never leave the table saw running unattended. Turn it off and don’t leave the tool until it comes to a complete stop.
An unattended running saw is an uncontrolled hazard.
c) Locate the table saw in a well lit and level area where you can maintain good footing and balance. It should be installed
in an area that provides enough room to easily handle the size of the workpieces. Cramped, dark areas, and uneven
slippery floors invite accidents.
d) Frequently clean and remove sawdust from under the saw table and/or the dust collection device. Accumulated saw dust
is combustible and may self ignite.
e) The table saw must be secured. A table saw that is not properly secured may move or tip over.
f) Remove tools, wood scraps, etc. from the table before the table saw is turned on. Distraction or a potential jam can be
dangerous.
g) Always use saw blades with correct size and shape (diamond versus round) of arbour holes. Saw blades that do not
match the mounting hardware of the saw will run off-centre, causing loss of control.
h) Never use damaged or incorrect saw blade mounting means such as flanges, saw blade washers, bolts or nuts. These
mounting means were specially designed for your saw, for safe operation and optimum performance.
i) Never stand on the table saw, do not use it as a stepping stool. Serious injury could occur if the tool is tipped or if the cutting
tool is accidentally contacted.
j) Make sure that the saw blade is installed to rotate in the proper direction. Do not use grinding wheels, wire brushes, or
abrasive wheels on a table saw. Improper saw blade installation or use of accessories not recommended may cause serious
injury.
k) Only use 10" saw blade with kerf width of 2.4mm and blade body thickness is 1.6 mm match the riving knife with thickness
of 2.0 mm.
l) Always use only a saw blade diameter in accordance with the markings on the saw; Use only saw blades for which the
maximum possible speed is not less than the maximum spindle speed of the product.
m)Do not use any blunt, cracked, deformed or damaged saw blades.
n) Do not store this tool with the battery installed. Think through all scenarios to ensure that the saw is never turned on accidentally.
o) Do not transport this tool with the battery or adapter installed.
