Residual risks
The following risks are inherent to the use of saws:
Injuries caused by touching the rotating parts.
u
Even with the application of the relevant safety regulations
and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual
risks cannot be avoided. These are:
Impairment of hearing.
u
Risk of accidents caused by the uncovered parts of the
u
rotating saw blade.
Risk of injury when changing the blade.
u
Risk of squeezing fingers when opening the guards.
u
Health hazards caused by breathing dust developed when
u
sawing wood, especially oak, beech and MDF.
Saw blades
Do not use blades of larger or smaller diameter than
u
recommended. For the proper blade rating refer to the
technical data. Use only the blades specified in this
manual, complying with EN 847-1.
Warning! Never use abrasive wheels.
u
Safety of others
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (includ-
u
ing children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless
they have been given supervision or instruction concern-
ing use of the appliance by a person responsible for their
safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not
u
play with the appliance.
Vibration
The declared vibration emission values stated in the technical
data and the declaration of conformity have been measured
in accordance with a standard test method provided by EN
60745 and may be used for comparing one tool with another.
The declared vibration emission value may also be used in a
preliminary assessment of exposure.
Warning! The vibration emission value during actual use of
the power tool can differ from the declared value depending
on the ways in which the tool is used. The vibration level may
increase above the level stated.
When assessing vibration exposure to determine safety
measures required by 2002/44/EC to protect persons regularly
using power tools in employment, an estimation of vibration
exposure should consider, the actual conditions of use and the
way the tool is used, including taking account of all parts of the
operating cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off
and when it is running idle in addition to the trigger time.
