It is important to avoid overheating the blade and melting
the plastic when cutting.
■
It is essential to adhere to the maximum speed specified
on the saw blade, only use saw blade that are marked
with a speed equal or higher than the speed marked on
the tool.
■
Replace the table insert when worn or damaged.
■
Before work, make a dummy cut without the motor turned
on so the position of the blade, operation of the guards
with respect to other machine parts, and workpiece may
be checked.
■
When performing mitre, bevel or compound mitre cuts,
adjust the sliding fence or sub-fence to ensure the
correct clearance from the blade.
■
Avoid uncontrolled release of the saw unit from the fully
down position.
■
The handle lock must always be engaged when
transporting the product.
■
Keep the floor area free of loose materials, such as chips
and cut-offs.
■
Refrain from removing any cut-offs or other parts of the
workpiece from the cutting area whilst the product is
running and the saw head is not in the rest position.
■
Long workpieces must be adequately supported. The
working area of the saw includes the whole extent of the
workpiece. The operator should secure this area from
accidental contact from other persons or objects which
may move the workpiece during operation.
■
The dust produced when using the product may be
harmful to health. Use a dust suction system and wear
a suitable dust protection mask. Remove deposited dust
thoroughly with a vacuum cleaner.
■
The unit should be connected to a power circuit
protection device (fuse or circuit breaker).
■
When using the mitre saw outdoors, the manufacturer
recommends the use of an RCD device with a trip set
at 30mA.
■
When using this tool, voltage fluctuations may affect
other electrical products or lighting on the same
power circuit. Connect the tool to a power source with
an impedance equal to 0.180 Ω to minimise voltage
fluctuations. Contact your electric power supplier for
further clarification.
RESIDUAL RISKS
Even when the product is used as prescribed, it is still
impossible to completely eliminate certain residual risk
factors. The following hazards may arise and the operator
should pay special attention to avoid the following:
■
Risk of contact with uncovered parts of the rotating saw
blade
■
Kick-back of workpieces or parts of workpieces due to
improper adjustment or handling
■
Catapulting of faulty carbide tips from the saw blade
■
Damage to the respiratory system
NOTE: Wear respiratory protection masks containing
filters appropriate to the materials being worked. Ensure
adequate workplace ventilation. Do not eat, drink or
smoke in the work area.
■

OPERATION
The product features a moving saw blade that can be set at
various angles by the operator when cutting a work piece
which is securely fi xed to the base of the product. It must
be operated by only one person to prevent unintentional
contact with the moving saw blade.
The principles for safe operation of the product are as
follows:
■
Maintain saw, blades and work area in good condition.
■
Secure the mitre saw base to a sturdy work bench. The
product may move and tip if it is not adequately secured.
■
Set up and lock the cutting angles and depth before
making the cut.
■
Secure the work piece to the mitre saw base. Use the
clamp provided and, where necessary, use additional
clamps or holding mechanisms to prevent unintentional
movement of the work piece while cutting.
