Safety advice relating specifically to this device

Safety precautions:

JDo not use blunt, cracked, distorted or damaged saw blades. Saw blades with blunt or misaligned teeth are in effect too wide for the designed saw gap and this gives rise to increased friction, jamming and kickback.

JAlways use a saw blade of the correct size and with the appropriate central fixing hole bore (e.g. star-shaped or round). Saw blades that do not correspond with the attachment components on the saw will not run true and could lead to loss of control.

JReplace table inserts when worn out.

JNever operate the electrical power tool without the table insert. Replace a table insert if it has defects.

JAlways use recommended saw blades complying with EN 847-1. Note: When changing to a different saw blade make sure that the cutting width is greater and the stock thickness smaller than the thick- ness of the riving knife.

JMake sure that you use a saw blade suitable for the material you are cutting.

JIf necessary wear suitable personal protective clothing.
