non-slip shoes is recommended.
ARisk of injury by inhaled wood
dust!
xDust of certain timber species (e.g.
beech, oak, ash) can cause cancer
when inhaled. Work only with a suit-
able dust collector attached to the
saw. The dust collector must comply
with the data stated in the technical
specifications.
xEnsure that as little as possible
wood dust will get into the environ-
ment:
remove wood dust deposit in the
work area (do not blow away!);
fix any leakages on the dust col-
lector;
ensure good ventilation.
AHazard generated by modifica-
tion of the machine or use of parts
not tested and approved by the equip-
ment manufacturer!
xAssemble tool in strict accordance

AHazard generated by tool
defects!
xKeep tool and accessories in good
repair. Observe the maintenance
instructions.
xBefore every use check tool for pos-
sible damage: before operating the
tool all safety devices, protective
guards or slightly damaged parts
need to be checked for proper func-
