saw blade through a complete simulated cut to
assure there will be no interference or danger of
cutting the fence.
• Provide adequate support such as table exten-
sions, saw horses, etc. for a workpiece that is
wider or longer than the table top. Workpieces
longer or wider than the mitre saw table can tip
if not securely supported. If the cut-off piece or
workpiece 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. Un-
stable support for the workpiece can cause the
blade to bind or the workpiece to shift during the
cutting operation pulling you and the helper into
the spinning 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 being
cut, causing the blade to "bite" and pull the work
with your hand into the blade.
• Let the blade reach full speed before contacting
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
work to free the jammed material. Continued
sawing with a jammed workpiece could cause
loss of control or damage to the mitre saw.
• 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 position.
The braking action of the saw may cause the saw
head to be suddenly pulled downward, causing a
risk of injury.
• Keep your work area clean. Material mixtures
are particularly hazardous. Light metal dust may
catch fire or explode.
• Do not use dull, cracked, bent or damaged saw
blades. Unsharpened or improperly set saw
10
blades produce narrow kerf causing excessive
friction, blade binding and kickback.
• Do not use saw blades made from high speed
steel (HSS). Such saw blades can easily break.
• Always use saw blades with correct size and
shape (diamond versus round) of arbour holes.
Saw blades that do not match the mounting
hardware of the saw will run off-centre, causing
loss of control.
• Do not replace the integrated laser with a laser
of another type. A laser that is not compatible
with this power tool could pose a risk to persons.
• Never remove cuttings, wood chips, etc. from
the cutting area while the power tool is running.
Always guide the tool arm back to the neutral
position first and then switch the power tool off.
• Do not touch the saw blade after working before
it has cooled. The saw blade becomes very hot
while working.
• Never make warning signs on the machine unre-
cognisable.
• If laser radiation hits your eye, you must close
your eyes and immediately turn your head away
from the beam.
• Do not use any optical instruments such as
binoculars to view the radiation source. Doing
so can damage your eye.
• Do not direct the laser beam at persons who are
looking through binoculars or similar instru-
ments. Doing so can damage their eye.
• Do not make any modifications to the laser
equipment. The setting options described in
these operating instructions can be used safely.
• Do not stand in line with the saw blade in front
of the power tool. Always stand to the side of
the saw blade. This protects your body against
possible kickback.
• Keep hands, fingers and arms away from the
rotating saw blade.
• Do not reach one hand across the other when in
front of the tool arm.
• Avoid overheating of the saw teeth. When the
saw blade overheats, stop the machine. Allow
the saw blade to cool down before using the
machine again.
• Replace damaged or worn saw blades immedi-
ately.
• Only use saw blades that match the specifica-
tions given in this operating manual and that
have been tested and marked in accordance
with EN 847-1.
