Contact with the saw blade in the exposed sawing area.
Reaching into the running saw blade (cutting injury).
Kick-back of workpieces and workpiece parts.
Saw blade breakage.
Ejection of faulty carbide parts of the saw blade.
Hearing damage when the necessary hearing pro-tection is not used.
Harmful emissions of wood dusts during use in en-closed areas.

Please note that our equipment was not designed with the intention of use for commercial or industrial purpos-es. We assume no guarantee if the device is used in commercial or industrial applications, or for equivalent work.

Safety instructions

General power tool safety warnings

WARNING!
Read all safety warnings, instruc-tions, illustrations and specifications provided with this electric tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or se-rious injury.

Save all warnings and instructions for future ref-erence.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operat-ed (cordless) power tool.

Work area safety
- Keep your work area clean and well-lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
- Do not operate power tools in explosive atmos-pheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
- Keep children and bystanders away while oper-ating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical safety
- Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Nev-er 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.
- Avoid body contact with earthed surfaces, such as pipes, heaters, ovens and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
- Do not expose power tools to rain or wet condi-tions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
- 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 in-crease the risk of electric shock.
- 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.
- If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Using a fault-current cir-cuit breaker reduces the risk of an electric shock.
Personal safety
- 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 carelessness when using electrical tools can result in serious injuries.
- Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
- 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.
- 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 re-sult in personal injury.
- Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and bal-ance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
- Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair and clothing away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
- 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.
- Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become complacent and ig-nore tool safety principles. A careless action can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.
Power tool use and care
- Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct pow-er tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
- 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.
- 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.
- Store idle power tools out of the reach of chil-dren 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.
- 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 main-tained power tools.
- Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
- Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, tak-ing 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.
- 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.
Service
- Only have your electric tool repaired by quali-fied specialists and only with original spare parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Safety instructions for chop and mitre saws

Mitre saws are intended to cut wood or wood-like products, they cannot be used with abra-sive cut-off wheels for cutting ferrous materi-al such as bars, rods, studs, etc. Abrasive dust causes moving parts such as the lower guard to jam. Sparks from abrasive cutting will burn the lower guard, the kerf insert and other plastic parts.
Use clamps to support the workpiece when-ever possible. If supporting the workpiece by hand, you must always keep your hand at least 100 mm from either side of the saw blade. Do not use this saw to cut pieces that are too small to be securely clamped or held by hand. If your hand is placed too close to the saw blade, there is an increased risk of injury from blade contact.
The workpiece must be stationary and clamped or held against both the fence and the table. Do not feed the workpiece into the blade or cut “freehand” in any way. Unre-strained or moving workpieces could be thrown at high speeds, causing injury.
Push the saw through the workpiece. Do not pull the saw through the workpiece. To make a cut, raise the saw head and pull it out over the workpiece without cutting. Start the mo-tor, press the saw head down and push the saw through the workpiece. Cutting on the pull stroke is likely to cause the saw blade to climb on top of the workpiece and violently throw the blade assembly towards the operator.
Never cross your hand over the intended line of cutting either in front or behind the saw blade. Supporting the workpiece “cross handed” i.e. holding the workpiece to the right of the saw blade with your left hand or vice versa is very dangerous.
Do not reach behind the fence while the blade is spinning. Observe the 100 mm safety dis-tance between hands and the rotating saw blade (this applies to both sides of the saw blade, e.g. also when removing waste piec-es of wood). The proximity of the spinning saw blade to your hand may not be obvious and you may be seriously injured.
Inspect your workpiece before cutting. If the workpiece is bowed or warped, clamp it with the outside bowed face toward the fence. Always make certain that there is no gap be-tween the workpiece, fence and table along the line of the cut. Bent or warped workpieces can twist or shift and may cause binding on the spinning saw blade while cutting. There should be no nails or foreign objects in the workpiece.
Do not use the saw until the table is clear of all tools, wood scraps, etc., except for the work-piece. Small debris or loose pieces of wood or other objects that contact the revolving blade can be thrown with high speed.
Only cut one workpiece at a time. Stacked mul-tiple workpieces cannot be adequately clamped or braced and may bind on the blade or shift dur-ing cutting.
Ensure the mitre saw is mounted or placed on a level, firm work surface before use. A level and firm work surface reduces the risk of the mitre saw becoming unstable.
Plan your work. Every time you change the bevel or mitre angle setting, make sure the adjustable fence is set correctly to support the workpiece and will not interfere with the blade or the guarding system. Without turning the tool “ON” and with no workpiece on the table, move the saw blade through a complete simulat-ed cut to assure there will be no interference or danger of cutting the fence.
Provide adequate support such as table ex-tensions, saw horses, etc. for a workpiece that is wider or longer than the table top. Workpieces that are longer or wider than the table of the chop and mitre saw can tip if they are not properly supported. If the cut-off piece or work-piece tips, it can lift the lower guard or be thrown by the spinning blade.
Do not use another person as a substitute for a table extension or as additional support. Unstable support of the workpiece can lead to the blade becoming jammed. Also, the workpiece could shift during the cutting process, pulling you or your assistant into the rotating blade.
The cut-off piece must not be jammed or pressed by any means against the spinning saw blade. If confined, i.e. using length stops, the cut-off piece could get wedged against the blade and thrown violently.
Always use a clamp or a fixture designed to properly support round material such as rods or tubing. Rods have a tendency to roll while be-ing cut, causing the blade to “bite” and pull the work with your hand into the blade.
Let the blade reach full speed before contact-ing the workpiece. This will reduce the risk of the workpiece being thrown.
If the workpiece or blade becomes jammed, turn the mitre saw off. Wait for all moving parts to stop and disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove the battery pack. Then, remove the jammed material. If you continue sawing with such jamming this can result in a loss of control or to the chop and mitre saw being damaged.
After finishing the cut, release the switch, hold the saw head down and wait for the blade to stop before removing the cut-off piece. Reaching with your hand near the coasting blade is dangerous.
Hold the handle firmly when making an incom-plete cut or when releasing the switch before the saw head is completely in the down posi-tion. The braking action of the saw may cause the saw head to be suddenly pulled downward, causing a risk of injury.

Safety instructions for the handling of saw blades

Do not use damaged or deformed saw blades.
Do not use saw blades with cracks. Separate cracked saw blades. Repairs are not permitted.
Do not use saw blades made of high speed steel.
Check the condition of the saw blades before us-ing the sliding cross-cut mitre saw.
Make sure that a suitable saw blade for the mate-rial to be cut is selected.
Only use saw blades recommended by the man-ufacturer. Saw blades designed to cut wood and similar ma-terials must comply with EN 847-1.
Do not use saw blades made of high-speed alloy steel (HSS steel).
Only use saw blades for which the maximum per-missible speed is not lower than the maximum spindle speed of the sliding cross-cut mitre saw, and which are suitable for the material to be cut.
Observe the rotational direction of the saw blade.
Only use saw blades if you have mastered their use.
Observe the maximum speed. The maximum speed specified on the saw blade may not be exceeded. If specified, observe the speed range.
Clean dirt, grease, oil and water off of the clamp-ing surfaces.
Do not use any loose reducing rings or bushes for the reducing of holes on saw blades.
Make sure that fixed reducer rings for securing the saw blade have the same diameter and have at least 1/3 of the cutting diameter.
Make sure that fixed reducer rings are parallel to each other.
Handle saw blade with caution. They are ideally stored in the originally package or special con-tainers. Wear protective gloves in order to im-prove grip and to further reduce the risk of injury.
Prior to the use of saw blades, make sure that all protective devices are properly fastened.
Prior to use, ensure that the saw blade meets the technical requirements of this sliding cross-cut mitre saw, and is properly fastened.
Only use the supplied saw blade for cutting wood, never for the processing of metals.
Use only a saw blade with a diameter that match-es the specifications on the saw.
Use additional workpiece supports, if required for workpiece stability.
Workpiece support extensions must always be secured and used during work.
Replace table inserts when worn!
Avoid overheating the saw teeth.
When sawing plastic, avoid melting of the plastic. Use the appropriate saw blades for this purpose. Replace damaged or worn saw blades immedi-ately.

When the saw blade overheats, stop the machine. Allow the saw blade to cool down before using the machine again.

Attention:
Laser beam Do not look into the beam Laser class 2

Protect yourself and your environment from acci-dents using suitable precautionary measures!

Do not look directly into the laser beam with unpro-tected eyes.
Never look into the path of the beam.
Never point the laser beam towards reflecting sur-faces and persons or animals. Even a laser beam with a low output can cause damage to the eyes.
Caution – methods other than those specified here can result in dangerous radiation exposure.
Never open the laser module. Unexpected exposure to the beam can occur.
The laser may not be replaced with a different type of laser.
Repairs of the laser may only be carried out by the laser manufacturer or an authorised representative.

Residual risks
The electric tool is state-of-the-art and has been built according to the recognised technical safety regulations. However, individual residual risks can arise during operation.

Health hazard due to electrical power, with the use of improper electrical connection cables.
Furthermore, despite all precautions having been met, some non-obvious residual risks may still remain.
Residual risks can be minimised if the “safety instructions” and the “Proper use” are observed along with the whole of the operating instructions.
Do not load the machine unnecessarily: excessive pressure when sawing will quickly damage the saw blade, which results in reduced output of the machine in the processing and in cut precision.
When cutting plastic material, please always use clamps: the parts which should be cut must always be fixed between the clamps.
Avoid accidental starting of the machine: the start button may not be pressed when inserting the plug in an outlet.
Use the tool that is recommended in this manual. This is how to ensure that your machine provides optimum performance.
Keep your hands away from the working area when the machine is in operation.
Before performing setting or maintenance work, re-lease the start button and pull out the power plug.

Warning!
This electric tool generates an electromagnetic field during operation. This field can impair active or passive medical implants under certain conditions. In order to prevent the risk of serious or deadly injuries, we recom-mend that persons with medical implants consult with their physician and the manufacturer of the medical im-plant prior to operating the power tool.
