13.Precautions and protective
garment
This electrical tool may only be handled by adult
personnel who have received suitable training and
instructions, complying with laws as established to
this respect and what has been set forth as a matter
of prevention for the working place.
In addition, the operator must have understood and
assimilated, and fully comply with the present
manual.
This machine requires the use of the following
individual protective equipments:
1.Protective helmet
2.Integral face-protecting equipment (eyes and
face) against impacts
3.Ear protectors
4.Dust mask
5.Protective gloves against mechanical aggression
6.Boots with toe caps and insoles
7.Working garment
8.Tool bag
9.Safety belt (occasional)
14.Special safety precautions
Safety Precautions
- Do not use saw blades that are damaged or
deformed.
- Do not use the saw without guards in position,
especially after a mode change, and keep guards
in good working properly maintained.
ENGLISH

- Replace the block of the table when worn.
-Only use blades recommended by the
manufacturer saw, with a warning that the keel
should not be thicker than the width of the groove
of the cut made by the saw blade and not thinner
than the body of the blade; Specific saw blades for
cutting wood must comply with EN 847-1.
- Do not use saw blades made of high speed steel.
-Dressing appropriate personal protective
equipment when necessary, which may include:
• Hearing protection to reduce the risk of
induced hearing loss.
• Eye protection.
• Respiratory protection to reduce the risk of
inhalation of harmful dust.
• Wear gloves when handling saw blades and
rough materials (leaves should be on a stand
whenever practicable).
- Connect the saw to a dust collection system when
sawing wood.
- Always store the push stick in place when not in
use
Description of risks specifically related to
the machine
Any of the following prior risk conditions must have
existed for the risks to become real:
1.The operator has not been suitably trained.
2.The mitre saw has not been installed suitably.
3.The mitre saw has not been maintained correctly.
4.The mitre saw has been disassembled and then
been assembled incorrectly.
5.The mitre saw has been disassembled and
assembled with parts lacking.
6.Operator does not use the protection as
indicated.
7.Operator grasps the workpiece with his/her hand.
8.Operator exposes his/her hands, body or
garment to the cutting path.
The two main classes of risks entailed by the use of
this machine are contacts with the cutting disk and
projections of particles or cut pieces.
1.Contact with the cutting disk
Case of use 1.1: During the development of the
cutting operation
Description of an accident of type 1.1.1: The
appearance of a nod in the wood leading to a
change in the resistance to penetration causes an
abrupt jerk in the workpiece and thus the possibility
that the operators hand is suddenly displaced
towards the disk and contacts the same if it remains
accessible.
Description of an accident of type 1.1.2: This
occurs during headpiece cutting operations at
workpieces having a very short length being held
manually. When the disk penetrates into the
workpiece, the latter may fall into the disk's
penetration slot of the cutting table and thus drag
the hand that holds the workpiece, making it enter
into contact with the disk if it remains accessible.
