 Only saw one workpiece at a time. Workpieces placed on
top or aside of each other can cause the saw blade to jam or
the workpieces to move against each other while sawing.
 Always use the parallel guide or the angle guide. This
improves the cutting accuracy and reduces the possibility
of saw blade binding.
Products sold in GB only: Your product is fitted with an
BS 1363/A approved electric plug with internal fuse (ASTA
approved to BS 1362).
If the plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be
cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place by an author-
ised customer service agent. The replacement plug should
have the same fuse rating as the original plug.
The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible
shock hazard and should never be inserted into a mains sock-
et elsewhere.
Products sold in AUS and NZ only: Use a residual current de-
vice (RCD) with a rated residual current of 30 mA or less.
