Safety Instructions

General Safety Instructions
Prior to using the saw stand or mounting a power tool on it, it is essential to read and follow all warnings and instructions provided. Failure to do so may result in electric shock, fire, and serious injury.

Safety Instructions for Saw Stands

  1. Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove the battery from the power tool before making any adjustments or changing accessories. This prevents accidental startup of the power tool.
  2. Properly assemble the saw stand before mounting the power tool to ensure stability and prevent collapsing.
  3. Firmly secure the power tool to the saw stand before use to avoid loss of control due to slipping.
  4. Place the saw stand on a firm, flat, and horizontal surface to ensure safe and steady machining of the workpiece.
  5. Avoid overloading the saw stand or climbing/standing on it, as it can raise the center of gravity and cause tipping over.
  6. Do not force the workpiece into the saw blade, as excessive pressure can lead to instability and tipping of the saw stand.
  7. Ensure all screws and connecting pieces are tightly fastened during work to maintain stability and accuracy.
  8. Prevent unbalancing of the saw stand by supporting the free end of long and heavy workpieces.
  9. Avoid placing fingers near points of articulation when pushing together or pulling apart the saw stand to prevent crushing injuries.

Safety Instructions

General Safety Instructions
Read all the warnings and instructions included with the saw stand or the power tool you intend to mount on it. Failure to observe the safety and general instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

Safety Instructions for Saw Stands

  • Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove the battery from the power tool before making any adjustments to the power tool or changing accessories. Accidents can occur when power tools are started unintentionally.
  • Assemble the saw stand properly before mounting the power tool. Correct assembly is important to prevent the risk of collapsing.
  • Firmly secure the power tool to the saw stand before using it. You may lose control of the power tool if it slips on the saw stand.
  • Place the saw stand on a firm, flat, horizontal surface. If there is a chance that the saw stand will slip or wobble, the safe and steady machining of the workpiece cannot be guaranteed.
  • Do not overload the saw stand or climb or stand on it. Overloading or standing on the saw stand can raise its centre of gravity, causing it to tip over.
  • Do not force the workpiece into the saw blade. Exerting excessive pressure on the power tool can cause the saw stand to tip over.
  • Ensure that all screws and connecting pieces are tightly fastened when carrying out work. Loose connections can cause instability and inaccurate sawing.
  • Ensure that long and heavy workpieces do not unbalance the saw stand. The free end of long and heavy workpieces must have something placed underneath it or be supported.
  • When pushing together or pulling apart the saw stand, do not put your fingers near the points of articulation. There is a risk of fingers being crushed.
