J Ear protectors reduce the risk of be-
coming hard of hearing in later life.
J
Breathing or dust masks reduce the
risk of breathing in hazardous dusts.
J
Wear protective gloves when
handling saw blades and rough
materials.
J Saw blades must be carried in a container
wherever possible.
J Connect a dust collection system to the circular
saw when sawing wood.
J Do not use HSS saw blades (high-alloy high-
speed steel).
J The push stick must always be kept in the vicini-
ty of the machine.
Operating the machine safely:
J Use the push stick to guide the workpiece safely
past the saw blade.
J Use the riving knife and keep it correctly set.
J Use the blade guard and keep it correctly set.
J Do not carry out any rebating or grooving un-
less a suitable guard, such as a tunnel guard,
is attached to the saw table.
J The circular saw must not be used for slotting
(a groove ending in the workpiece).
J Only use saw blades that have a highest per-
missible speed not less than the maximum shaft
speed (rated speed of the table saw and the
workpiece being sawn).
J Transport the machine by the provided handling
points only; do not use the guards to handle or
move the machine.
J The top part of the saw blade must be covered
by the saw blade guard during transport.
J Securing the workpiece. Curved or
round workpieces must be secured against slip-
ping during sawing. If necessary use special
clamps.
J Do not saw any material containing
asbestos. Asbestos is a known carcinogen.
J Take precautions when working with
dusts which may be hazardous to
health, combustible or explosive. For
example: Some dusts are classed as
carcinogenic. Wear a dust mask and use a
dust or chipping extraction device, if one can
be connected.
J Keep your working area clean.
Mixtures of materials can be particularly danger-
ous. Light metal alloy dust may burn or explode.
J Never leave the electric power tool
before it comes to a complete stand-
still. An on-running blade might injure somebody.
J Do not use the electrical power tool if
it has a damaged mains lead. Do not
touch the damaged lead. Pull the
mains plug out of the socket if the
mains lead becomes damaged dur-
ing use. Damaged mains leads increase the
risk of electric shock.
J If you use the electrical power tool
outdoors, always connect it through
a residual current device (RCD).
J Connect the electrical power tool to a
properly earthed power circuit. Sock-
ets and extension leads must have properly
functioning earth contacts.
J Do not stand on the electrical power
tool. Serious injuries could result if the table
tips over or you inadvertently come into con-
tact with the saw blade.
J Ensure that the blade guard is prop-
erly positioned. It must always lie against
the workpiece when you are sawing.
J Keep your hands clear of the saw
blade and away from the area
around the saw. Contact with the saw
blade may result in injury.
J Never reach behind the sawblade to
hold the workpiece, remove sawdust
or for any other reason. Your hand is
too close to the rotating sawblade when you
do this.
J Just guide the workpiece up to the
rotating sawblade. Otherwise there is the
danger of kickback if the saw blade gets
caught in the workpiece.
J Use the electrical power tool only if
the working area is clear of all set-
ting tools, sawdust etc. apart from
the workpiece. Any small pieces of wood
