which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch
does not turn it on or off. Any power tool
that cannot be controlled with the switch
is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source
and/or remove the battery pack, if
detachable, from the power tool before making
any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the
risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons unfamiliar
with the power tool or these Instructions
to operate the power tool. Power tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools and accessories. Check
for misalignment or binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts and any other
condition that may affect the power tool's
operation. If damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind
and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool
bits etc. in accordance with these instructions,
taking into account the working conditions and
the work to be performed. Use of the power tool
for operations different fromthose intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry,
clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery
handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for
safe handling and control of the
tool in unexpected situations.
5) General Power Tool Safety Warnings
[Service]
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
HEALTH ADVICE
WARNING: When using this machine,
dust particles may be produced. In some
instances, depending on the materials you
are working with, this dust can be particularly
harmful. If you suspect that paint on the surface
of material you wish to cut contains lead, seek
professional advice. Lead based paints should only
be removed by a professional and you should not
attempt to remove it yourself.
Once the dust has been deposited on surfaces,
hand to mouth contact can result in the ingestion
of lead. Exposure to even low levels of lead can
cause irreversible brain and nervous system
damage. The young and unborn children are
particularly vulnerable.
You are advised to consider the risks associated
with the materials you are working with and to
reduce the risk of exposure.
As some materials can produce dust that may be
hazardous to your health, we recommend the use
of an approved face mask with replaceable filters
when using this machine.
You should always:
• Work in a well-ventilated area.
• Work with approved safety equipment, such
as dust masks that are specially designed to
filter microscopic particles.
WARNING: The operation of any power tool can
result in foreign objects being thrown towards
your eyes, which could result in severe eye
damage. Before beginning power tool operation,
always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with
side shield or a full face shield where necessary.
Safety instructions for mitre saws
a) Mitre saws are intended to cut wood or
wood-like products, they cannot be used with
abrasive cut-off wheels for cutting ferrous
material such as bars, rods, studs, etc. Abrasive
dust causes moving parts such as the lower guard
to jam. Sparks from abrasive cutting will burn the
lower guard, the kerf insert and other plastic parts.
b) Use clamps to support the workpiece
whenever possible. If supporting the
workpiece by hand, you must always keep
your hand at least 100 mm from either side
of the saw blade. Do not use this saw to
cut pieces that are too small to be securely
clamped or held by hand. If your hand is
placed too close to the saw blade, there is an
increased risk of injury from blade contact. c) The
workpiece must be stationary and clamped or
held against both the fence and the table. Do
not feed the workpiece into the blade or cut
"freehand" in any way. Unrestrained or moving
workpieces could be thrown at high speeds,
causing injury.
d) Push the saw through the workpiece. Do
not pull the saw through the workpiece. To
make a cut, raise the saw head and pull it out
over the workpiece without cutting, start the
motor, press the saw head down and push the
saw through the workpiece. Cutting on the pull
stroke is likely to cause the saw blade to climb
on top of the workpiece and violently throw the
blade assembly towards the operator.
e) Never cross your hand over the intended
line of cutting either in front or behind the
saw blade. Supporting the workpiece "cross
handed" i.e. holding the workpiece to the right of
the saw blade with your left hand or vice versa is
very dangerous.
f) Do not reach behind the fence with either
hand closer than 100 mm from either side of
the saw blade, to remove wood scraps, or for
any other reason while the blade is spinning.
The proximity of the spinning saw blade to
your hand may not be obvious and you may be
seriously injured.
g) Inspect your workpiece before cutting. If
the workpiece is bowed or warped, clamp it
with the outside bowed face toward the fence.
