VIBRATION
WARNING: When using this machine the
operator can be exposed to high levels
of vibration transmitted to the hand and
arm. It is possible that the operator could
develop”Vibration white finger disease”
(Raynaud syndrome). This condition
can reduce the sensitivity of the hand
to temperature as well as producing
general numbness. Prolonged or regular
users of this machine should monitor
The condition of their hands and fingers
closely. If any of the symptoms become
evident, seek immediate medical advice.
tThe measurement and assessment of
human exposure to hand-transmitted
vibration in the workplace is given in:
BS EN ISO 5349-1:2001 and
BS EN ISO 5349-2:2002

vibration level during operation e.g. the
work surfaces condition and orientation
and the type and condition of the machine

the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced
with a special cord or assembly available from
the manufacturers or its service agent.

OUTDOOR USE
WARNING: For your protection, if this tool is
to be used outdoors, it should not be exposed
to rain, or used in damp locations. Do not place
the tool on damp surfaces. Use a clean, dry
workbench if available. For added protection
use a residual current device (R.C.D.) that will
interrupt the supply if the leakage current to
earth exceeds 30mA for 30ms. Always check
the operation of the residual current device
(R.C.D.) before using the machine.
If an extension cable is required it must be a
suitable type for use outdoors and so labelled.
The manufacturers instructions should be
followed when using an extension cable.

POWER TOOL GENERAL
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
(These General Power Tool Safety Instructions
EN 61029-1:2009)
WARNING: Read all safety warnings and
instructions. Failure to follow the warnings
and instructions may result in electric shock,
Save all warnings and instructions for
future reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers
to your mains-operated (corded) power tool
or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
(2.2)
1) General Power Tool Safety Warnings
[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
dust. Power tools create sparks which may
ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away
while operating power tool. Distractions
can cause you to lose control.
(2.3)
2) General Power Tool Safety Warnings
[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.
reduce the 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 of 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 reduces 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.
(2.4)
3) General Power Tool Safety Warnings
[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
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 masks, non-skid
safety shoes, hard hat or hearing protection
used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure
connecting to power source and or
battery pack, picking up or carrying the
tool.
on the switch or energising the 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 key left attached to a rotating part
of a 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 that these are
connected and properly used. Use of dust
collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
(2.5)
4) General Power Tool Safety Warnings
[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 a rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch
Any power tool
that cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the power tool from the
power source and/or battery pack from
the power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories,
or storing power tools. Such preventative
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. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of moving parts and
the power tools 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
could result in a hazardous situation.
(2.6)
5) General Power Tool Safety Warnings
[Service]
a) Have your power tool serviced by
identical replacement parts. This will
ensure that the safety of the power tool is
maintained.
(2.7)
HEALTH ADVICE
WARNING: When using this machine, dust
particles may be produced. In some instances,
depending on the materials you are working
with, this dust can be particularly harmful.
If you suspect that paint on the surface
of material you wish to cut contains lead,
seek professional advice. Lead based paints
should only be removed by a professional
and you should not attempt to remove it
yourself. Once the dust has been deposited
on surfaces, hand to mouth contact can result
in the ingestion of lead. Exposure to even
low levels of lead can cause irreversible brain
and nervous system damage. The young and
unborn children are particularly vulnerable.
You are advised to consider the risks
associated with the materials you are working
with and to reduce the risk of exposure.
As some materials can produce dust that may
be hazardous to your health, we recommend
the use of an approved face mask with
You should always:

(2.8)
WARNING: The operation of any power tool
can result in foreign objects being thrown
towards your eyes, which could result in
severe eye damage. Before beginning power
tool operation, always wear safety goggles
or safety glasses with side shield or a full face
shield where necessary.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS - TABLE SAWS
WARNING: Before using your table saw it
is important that you read and understand
these safety rules. Failure to follow these
rules could result in serious injury to the
operator or damage to the table saw.
tDo not use saw blades which are
damaged or deformed.
tReplace the table insert/access plate
if worn.
tUse only blades as recommended in this
manual, which conform to EN 847-1.
When changing a saw blade ensure that the
width of the groove (kerf) cut by the blade
is slightly greater than the thickness of the
riving knife. Also the thickness of the blade
body must not be greater than the thickness
of the riving knife.
tTake care that the selection of the
saw blade is suitable for the material
to be cut.
tWear suitable personal protective
equipment when necessary.
This could include:
tSaw blades should be carried in a
holder whenever practicable.
tNever perform any operation
freehand. This means using only your
hands to support or guide the workpiece.
Always use either the fence or mitre gauge
to position and guide the work.
WARNING: Freehand cutting is a major cause
of accidents and should not be attempted.
