which are marked accordingly.
Concentrate on what you are doing. Take a
sensible attitude to your work. Never use the tool
when you are tired.
Never use a tool with a switch that cannot be
turned on and off.
Caution! The use of plug-in tools and
accessories other than those intended may put

Always pull the plug out of the power socket
before adjusting or servicing the machine.
Give these safety regulations to all persons who
work on the machine.
Do not use this saw to cut fire wood.
Do not use this saw to cross-cut roundwood.
Caution! Hands and fingers may be injured on
the rotating saw blade.
The machine is equipped with a safety circuit-
breaker (11) to prevent it starting up again after a
voltage drop.
Before you use the machine for the first time,
check that the voltage marked on the rating plate
is the same as your mains voltage.
If you need to use an extension cable, make sure
its conductor cross-section is big enough for the
saw's power consumption. Minimum cross-
section: 1 mm 2 .
If you use a cable reel, the complete cable has to
be pulled off the reel.
Do not carry the tool by its cable.
Check the power cable. Never use a faulty or
damaged power cable.
Do not use the cable to remove the plug from the
socket-outlet. Protect the cable from heat, oil and
sharp edges.
Do not leave the saw in the rain and never use it
in damp or wet conditions.
Provide good lighting.
Non-slip shoes are recommended when working
outdoors.
Do not saw near flammable liquids or gases.
Wear suitable work clothes! Loose garments or
jewelry may become caught up in the rotating
saw blade.
We recommend wearing non-slip shoes when
working outdoors.
Wear a hair net if you have long hair.

connected to the power supply.
Keep your workplace clean of wood scrap and
any unnecessary objects.
Persons working on the machine should not be
distracted.
Note the direction of rotation of the motor and
saw blade.
After you have switched off the motor, never
slow down the saw blade (4) by applying
pressure to its side.
Fit only blades (4) which are well sharpened and
have no cracks or deformations.
Use only circular saw blades (4) made of high-
alloy high-speed steel (HSS).
Never dismantle the machine's safety devices (2,
5) or put them out of operation.
The machine is to be operated only with tools
which conform with prEN 847-1: 1966.
Faulty saw blades (4) have to be replaced
immediately.
Never use saw blades which do not comply with
the data specified in this manual.
It is imperative to make sure that all devices (2,
15) which cover the saw blade are in good
working order.
Caution! It is prohibited to use this saw to make
plunge cuts.
Damaged or faulty safety devices have to be
replaced immediately.
The splitter (5) is an important safety device. Not
only does it guide the workpiece, it also prevents
the kerf closing behind the blade so that there is
no kickback from the workpiece. Note the
thickness of the splitter. The splitter should never
be thinner than the saw blade body or thicker
than the width of its kerf.
The guard hood (2) has to be lowered over the
workpiece for each cut.
Be sure to use a push stick (3) when slitting
narrow workpieces (smaller than 120 mm in
width).
Never cut workpieces which are too small to hold
securely in your hand.
It is imperative for the parallel stop to be clamped
on the right-hand side of the blade whenever you
cut narrow workpieces to size.
Always stand to the side of the saw blade when
working with the saw.
Never load the machine so much that it cuts out.
Always press the workpiece firmly against the
saw table (1).
Make sure that off-cuts do not catch on the saw
blade crown. Risk of catapulting!
All guards and safety devices have to be refitted
immediately after completion of any repairs or
maintenance.
