[. . . ] Do not use the device in places where there is a danger of fire or explosion, for example near inflammable liquids or gases. If the table insert is damaged it could lead to the danger of small objects blocking the saw blade by becoming trapped between the table insert G and the saw blade. If the table insert is damaged have it replaced immediately by our customer service department. To work safely: Use the machine only for the purposes indicated and within the stipulated performance limits. Ensure that the automatic blade guard R is functioning properly and can move freely. Always select a saw blade that is suitable for the material you intend to cut. Support longer workpieces in such a way that they are at the same level as the surface of the saw table T. Use the screw clamps (b) or other clamping devices so that an awkwardly shaped workpiece cannot rotate or move whilst you are sawing it. The workpiece must be firmly clamped against the base of the table and the stop plate so that there are no gaps between the turntable and workpiece or between the stop plate and the workpiece. J J J J J J J J J J J J J 8 Safety / Operation J J J Always ensure that all the clamps and stops are firmly held in place. Ensure that the saw blade has reached full speed before starting your cut and avoid using too much force. Slide the lateral support stirrups Y into the openings provided for them on the left and right of the saw table T until they meet the stop and then fully tighten the clamp screws U. Press the mitre angle stop I and turn the saw table T using the saw table setting knob O into the basic position (0° setting). When the mitre angle stop I has engaged in the basic position (0° setting), turn the saw table setting knob O to tighten it again. Lightly press the switch handle W downwards and pull out the transport lock o. Ensure that the machine is standing in a stable position and check that the floor around the machine is flat, clean and free of loose particles such as sawdust chippings and sawing waste. Using the four mounting holes } provided, fasten the chop and mitre saw on to a firm, level surface. If you have not fastened the machine tightly down to a working surface, pull out the rear support stirrup e as far as possible to provide maximum support to the machine.
