2.8 General Safety Rules
NOTE!
Read these instructions completely before operating
your device. Keep these instructions for future use.
WARNING!
When using electrical tools, basic safety precautions
must always be taken to prevent the risk of fire,
electric shock and dangerous bodily injury.
1. Protection from the electrical shock. Do not touch
the grounded surfaces.
2. Storage of the unused tool. Keep tools that are not
in use in a dry, enclosed place and out of the reach of
children.
3. Do not overload the electrical cable. Never pull on
the cable to pull the plug out of the socket. Keep the
cable away from heat, oil and sharp edges
4. Secure the workpiece. If possible, hold the work-
piece with clamps or a vice. This is safer than holding
it by hand.
5. Maintain the tools carefully. Follow the instructions
for lubricating and replacing accessories.
6. Remove adjustment wrench and screw wrench.
Make sure that the adjustment and screw wrench are
removed from the tool before switching on.
7. Prevent the unintentional starting. Make sure that
the switch is in the "off" position when plugged in.
8. Use an extension cord for outdoor use. If the tool
is used outdoors, use only extension cords that are
marked for outdoor use.
WARNING!
Use of any accessories other than those recommen-
ded in this manual may result in personal injury.

the workpiece with a quick clamping device.
11. Wear suitable personal protective equipment when
necessary, this could include:
- hearing protection to reduce the risk of induced
hearing loss;
- eye protection;
- respiratory protection to reduce the risk of inhala-
tion of harmful dust;
- gloves for handling saw blades (saw blades shall
be carried in a holder wherever practicable) and
rough material.
WARNING!
- Ensure that the arm is securely fixed when beveling;
- Keep the floor area around the machine level, well
maintained and free of loose materials e.g. chips
and cut-offs;
- Use correctly sharpened saw blades;
- Observe the maximum speed marked on the saw
blade;
- When equipped with a laser: the laser fitted onto this
mitre saw is only designed for this saw. The fitting of
any external, additional or different type of laser is
not permitted. Repairs should only be carried out by
authorised repair agents.
