tightened before moving the stand or using the tool.
Adjust the work support height and extension arm length to
appropriate position, ensuring the workpiece is supported firmly.
Always clamp the workpiece securely during cutting operation.
Secure all work in the vise or clamp to the stand to prevent it from
moving whilst you work on it.
Always balance the load to prevent the stand from tipping over. When
sawing, always consider the balance after the cut is made before you
start work.
Objects, including parts of the workpiece may fall from the stand.
Wear protective footwear to reduce the risk of injury.
Do not lift any part of the mitre saw that is attached to the stand.
Do not climb, sit or stand on this stand.
Do not use any attachments or accessories not recommended by the
manufacturer of this stand. The use of attachments or accessories not
recommended can result in serious personal injury.
Do not expose any part of the stand and mitre saw to rain or use in
damp locations. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.
Always read and strictly follow the instructions and safety warnings
that came from the manufacturer of your mitre saw when you are
using it.
Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and use them to
instruct others who may use this accessory. If you loan someone this
accessory, loan them these instructions also to prevent misuse of the
product and possible injury.
ADDITIoNAL SAFETy wArNINGS
Keep work area clear and well lit.
– Cluttered areas and benches invite injuries.
Make sure all moving parts are free from interference.
Ensure stand is set up on firm, level ground in a stable manner.
Keep other persons away.
– Do not let persons, especially children, not involved in the
work touch the tool and keep them away from the work area.
Be aware of over-balancing. When a large workpiece is cut from one
end of a job, the remaining piece may be heavy enough to tip the
stand. Always ensure the workpiece is well supported.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This
enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
Check to make sure that all fixing screws and knobs are tight and all
legs are locked into place before operating the stand.
The tool must be used only tor its prescribed purpose. Any use other
than those mentioned in these instructions will be considered a case
of misuse. The manufacturer shall not be liable for any damage or
injury resulting from such cases of misuse.
Dress properly
– Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery; they can be caught
in moving parts.
– Non-skid footwear is recommended when working outdoors.
– Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.
Use personal protective equipment.
– Use safety glasses.
– Use face or dust mask if working operations create dust.
– Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause hearing
loss.
Do not use tools in damp or wet locations. Most workpieces in a moist
environment cannot be clamped firmly.
Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped
over, come in contact with sharp edges or moving parts or otherwise
subjected to damage or stress. This will reduce the risk of accidental
falls, which could cause injury, and damage to the cord, which could
result in electric shock.
When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable
for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the
risk of electric shock.
It is recommended that the tool always be supplied via a residual
current device (RCD) having a rated residual current of 30mA or less.
Ensure the work piece was clamped firmly and the lock release switch
is on proper state before use. Unclamped workpieces can cause
severe injury and damage.
Sawdust and splinters must not be removed while the machine is
running.
Check damaged parts. Before further use of tool, it should be carefully
checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its
intended function.
When not in use, tools should be stored in a dry locked-up place, out
of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with it.
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Disconnect the plug from the power source or the battery pack from
the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories
or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the
risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and
collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used.
Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you
to become complacent and ignore tool safety principles. A careless
action can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when
operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired
or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of
inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal
injury.
Have the product serviced by a qualified repair person.
When moving the stand or saw and bracket assembly, keep balanced
to avoid injury.
The use of any accessory or attachment other than one
recommended in this instruction manual may present a risk of
personal injury.
To avoid serious personal injury, make sure the mitre saw is seated
and locked on the bracket securely.
Always unplug the saw and lock the saw arm in the down position.
rESIDUAL rISkS
Even when the product is used as prescribed, it is still impossible
to completely eliminate certain residual risk factors. The following
hazards may arise and the operator should pay special attention to
avoid the following:
■ Ensure the product is set up on a firm, level ground in a stable
manner.
■ Be aware of over-balancing. When a large piece is cut from one
end of a job, the remaining piece may be heavy enough to tip the
stand. Always ensure the workpiece is well supported.
