Safety Instructions For The Preassembled Saw Blade - Festool KSC 60 EB Manual De Instrucciones

English
Let the blade reach full speed before con­
–
tacting the workpiece. This will reduce the
risk of the workpiece being thrown.
– If the workpiece or blade becomes jam­
med, turn the mitre saw off. Wait for all
moving parts to stop and disconnect the
plug from the power source and/or re­
move 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 in­
–
complete 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 sudden­
ly pulled downward, causing a risk of in­
jury.
2.3 Safety instructions for the pre-
assembled saw blade
Usage
– The maximum speed specified on the saw
blade must not be exceeded and the speed
range must be adhered to.
– The pre-installed saw blade is only de­
signed for use in circular saws.
– Proceed with extreme care when unpack­
ing, packing and handling the tool (e.g. in­
stalling it in the machine). There is a risk of
injury from extremely sharp cutting edges!
– When handling the tool, wearing safety
gloves provides a more secure hold of the
tool and further reduces the risk of injury.
– Circular saw blades with cracked bodies
must be replaced. Repair is not permitted.
– Circular saw blades with a combination de­
sign (soldered saw teeth) with saw tooth
thickness smaller than 1 mm must no lon­
ger be used.
WARNING! Do not use tools with visible
–
cracks or blunt or damaged cutting edges.
Installation and mounting
– Tools must be clamped in such a way that
they cannot come loose during operation.
– When assembling the tools, it must be en­
sured that the clamping takes place on the
tool hub or the clamping surface of the
26
tool, and that the cutting edges do not
come into contact with other components.
– Do not lengthen the key or tighten by hitting
with a hammer.
– The clamping surfaces must be cleaned to
remove contamination, grease, oil and wa­
ter.
– Clamping screws must be tightened ac­
cording to the manufacturer's instructions.
– Only securely installed rings, e.g. rings that
have been pressed in or those that are held
in position by an adhesive bond, may be
used to adjust the hole diameter of circular
saw blades to the spindle diameter of the
machine. The use of loose rings is not per­
mitted.
Service and maintenance
– Repairs and sanding work may only be car­
ried out by Festool customer service work­
shops or experts.
– The tool design must not be changed.
– Deresinify and clean the tool regularly
(cleaning agent with pH between 4.5 and 8).
– Blunt edges can be resharpened on the
clamping surface to a minimum cutting
edge thickness of 1 mm.
– Only transport the tool in suitable packag­
ing – risk of injury!
2.4 Further safety instructions
Only use saw blades that correspond to
–
the specifications for intended use. Saw
blades that do not fit correctly with the as­
sembly parts will run unevenly and may
cause fragments to break off from the ma­
terial and be ejected. These fragments may
hit the eyes of the user or any persons
standing in the vicinity.
Only use saw blades with a chip angle ≤ 0°.
–
A chip angle > 0° will pull the saw into the
workpiece. There is a risk of injury caused
by saw kickback and the rotating work­
piece.
– Before each use, check that the pendulum
guard is working correctly. Only use this
power tool when it is in perfect working or­
der.
Never reach into the chip ejector with your
–
hands. Rotating parts may injure your
hands.
Dust that is harmful to your health may be
–
produced as you work (e.g. paint products
containing lead and some types of wood).
