Additional safety warnings
When mounting the saw blade, wear protective
u
gloves. This poses a risk of injury.
Do not use HSS saw blades. Such saw blades can easily
u
break.
Never use the tool without the table insert. Replace
u
table insert if defective. Without flawless table inserts,
injuries are possible from the saw blade.
Keep your work area clean. Material mixtures are partic-
u
ularly hazardous. Light metal dust may catch fire or ex-
plode.
Choose the saw blade suited to the material you want
u
to work on.
Only use saw blades that match the specifications
u
given in this operating manual and that are tested and
marked in accordance with EN 847-1
Only use saw blades that are recommended by the
u
power tool manufacturer and are suitable for using on
the material you want to saw.
Only advance the workpiece towards the saw blade
u
when it is running. Otherwise there is a risk of kickback
occurring if the saw blade catches in the workpiece.
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 au-
thorised 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
socket elsewhere.

Take note of the dimensions of the saw blade. The hole dia-
meter must fit the tool spindle without play. If it is neces-
sary to use reducers, ensure that the dimensions of the re-
ducer are suitable for the base blade thickness and the saw
blade hole diameter, as well as the tool spindle diameter.
Wherever possible, use the reducers provided with the saw
blade.
The saw blade diameter must match the information spe-
cified on the symbol.
