SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WORK AREA
•Keep work area clean, free of clutter and well lit. Cluttered and dark work areas can cause
accidents.
•Do not use your sawmill where there is a risk of causing a fire or an explosion; e.g. in the
presence of flammable liquids, gasses, or dust. Power tools create sparks, which may ignite the
dust or fumes.
•Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you
to lose control, so visitors should remain at a safe distance from the work area.
•Be aware of all power lines, electrical circuits, water pipes and other mechanical hazards in
your work area, particularly those hazards below the work surface hidden from the operator’s
view that may be unintentionally contacted and may cause personal harm or property damage.
•Be alert of your surroundings. Using power tools in confined work areas may put you
dangerously close to cutting tools and rotating parts.

Manual and the safety guidelines below. Failure to follow the warnings and
safety standards could result in severe injury or death. "
"• DO NOT run the machine indoors or in an enclosed area such as a deep
trench unless adequate ventilation, through such items as exhaust fans or
hoses, is provided. Exhaust gas from the engine contains poisonous carbon
monoxide gas; exposure to carbon monoxide can cause loss of
consciousness and may lead to death.

• DO NOT smoke when refuelling the engine.
• DO NOT refuel a hot or running engine.
• DO NOT refuel the engine near an open flame.
• DO NOT spill fuel when refuelling the engine.

• ALWAYS refill the fuel tank in a well-ventilated area.
• ALWAYS replace the fuel tank cap after refuelling.
• ALWAYS check the fuel lines and the fuel tank for leaks and cracks before
starting the engine. Do not run the machine if fuel leaks are present or the
fuel lines are loose.
• ALWAYS avoid contact with hot fuel, oil, and exhaust fumes.
