ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES
FOR TOOL
FOR BOTH MITER SAW MODE AND TABLE SAW
(BENCH SAW) MODE:
1. Wear eye and hearing protection. Other
suitable personal protective equipment should
be worn.
2. NEVER wear gloves during operation except
for replacing saw blades or handling rough
material before operation.
3. Keep the floor area around the tool level well
maintained and free of loose materials e.g.
chips and cut-offs.
4. Do not operate saw without guards and riving
knife in place. Check blade guards for proper
closing before each use. Do not operate saw if
blade guards do not move freely and close
instantly. Never clamp or tie the blade guards
into the open position. Any irregular operation
of the blade guards should be corrected
immediately.
5. Clean and be careful not to damage the
spindle, flanges (especially the installing
surface) and hex bolt before or when installing
the blade. Damage to these parts could result
in blade breakage. Poor installation may cause
vibration/wobbling or slippage of the blade.
Use only flanges specified for this tool.
6. Check the blade carefully for cracks or
damage before operation. Do not use saw
blade which are damaged or deformed.
7. Use only saw blades recommended by the
manufacturer and which conform to EN847-1,
and observe that the riving knife must not be
thicker than the width of the cut by the saw
blade and not thinner than the body of the
blade.
8. Always use accessories recommended in this
manual. Use of improper accessories such as
abrasive cut-off wheels may cause an injury.
9. Select the correct saw blade for the material to
be cut.
10. Do not use saw blades manufactured from
high speed steel.
11. To reduce the emitted noise, always be sure
that the blade is sharp and clean.
12. Use correctly sharpened saw blades. Observe
the maximum speed marked on the saw blade.
13. Do not cut metal objects such as nails and
screws. Inspect for and remove all nails,
screws and other foreign material from the
workpiece before operation.
14. Knock out any loose knots from workpiece
BEFORE beginning to cut.
15. Do not use the tool in the presence of
flammable liquids or gases.
16. For your safety, remove the chips, small
pieces, etc. from the work area and table top
before plugging the tool and starting
operation.
17. The operator is adequately trained in the use,
adjustment and operation of the tool.
18. Keep hands and make your bystander and
yourself position out of path of and not in line
with saw blade. Avoid contact with any
coasting blade. It can still cause severe injury
and never reach around saw blade.
19. Be alert at all times, especially during
repetitive, monotonous operations. Do not be
lulled into a false sense of security. Blades are
extremely unforgiving.
20. Make sure the shaft lock is released before the
switch is turned on.
21. Before using the tool on an actual workpiece,
let it run for a while. Watch for vibration or
wobbling that could indicate poor installation
or a poorly balanced blade.
22. Wait until the blade attains full speed before
