Page 3: Safety Warnings

Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts. - Page 5 3. DO NOT feed the workpiece into the blade or cut "freehand" in any way. Unrestrained or moving workpieces could be thrown at high speeds, causing injury. 4. Push the saw through the workpiece. DO NOT pull the saw through the workpiece.

Page 8: Residual Risks
RESIDUAL RISKS 1. Despite all precautions having been met, some non-obvious residual risks may still remain. 2. Residual risks can be minimised if the safety warnings are observed along with the whole of the operating instructions. 3. DO NOT load the machine unnecessarily. Excessive pressure when sawing will quickly damage the saw blade which results in reduced output of the machine in the processing and in cut precision. -
