Safety Notes
en
General Safety Rules
Read all warning notes and instruc-
tions enclosed with the saw stand
and the power tool to be mounted.
Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions may result in electric
shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Safety Warnings for Saw Stands
Pull the plug from the mains receptacle
and/or remove the battery from the power
tool before making adjustments on the tool
or changing tool accessories. Unintentional
switching on of the power tool is the cause of
many accidents.
Assemble the saw stand in the proper man-
ner before mounting the power tool. Proper
assembly is important to prevent the risk of
a collapse of the saw stand.
Attach the power tool securely to the saw
stand before using it. Slipping off of the
power tool on the saw stand can lead to loss
of control.
Place the saw stand on a firm, level and hor-
izontal surface. If the saw stand can slip off
or wobbles, the power tool or the workpiece
cannot be uniformly and securely guided.
Do not overload the saw stand and do not
use it as a ladder or scaffolding. Overload-
ing or standing on the saw stand can lead to
the upward shifting of the centre of gravity of
the stand and its tipping over.
When working or transporting, take care
that all bolts and connecting elements are
firmly tightened. The attachment sets for
the power tool must always be firmly
locked. Loose connections can lead to insta-
bility and inexact sawing.
Bosch Power Tools
Mount and dismount the power tool only
when it is in the transport position (for in-
structions on the transport position, also
see the operating instructions of the re-
spective power tool). Otherwise, the power
tool can have such an unfavourable centre of
gravity that it cannot be held securely.
When the power tool is mounted to the at-
tachment set, operate it exclusively on the
saw stand. Without the saw stand, the at-
tachment set with the power tool does not
stand securely and can tip over.
Ensure that long and heavy workpieces do
not affect the equilibrium of the saw stand.
Long and/or heavy workpieces must be sup-
ported at the free end.
Keep your fingers clear of the hinge points
while pushing the saw stand together or
pulling it apart. Danger of fingers being
crushed or contused.
Symbols
The following symbols can be important for the
operation of your saw stand. Please memorise
the symbols and their meanings. The correct in-
terpretation of the symbols helps you operate
the saw stand better and more secure.
