Residual Risks; Additional Safety Instructions For Lasers; Safety Of Others - Stanley FatMax FME720 User Manual

ENGLISH
Never attempt to stop the machine in motion rapidly by
u
jamming a tool or other means against the blade; serious
accidents can be caused unintentionally in this way.
Before using or fitting any accessory consult the instruc-
u
tion manual. The improper use of an accessory can cause
damage.
Do not use any abrasive discs.
u
Raise the blade from the table insert in the workpiece prior
u
to releasing the on/of switch.
Do not wedge anything against the fan to hold the motor
u
shaft.
The blade guard on your saw will automatically raise when
u
the arm is brought down; it will lower over the blade when
the arm is raised. The guard can be raised by hand when
installing or removing saw blades or for inspection of the
saw. Never raise the blade guard manually unless the
machine is switched off.
Check periodically that the motor air slots are clean and
u
free of chips.
Do not work with material containing asbestos. Asbestos
u
is considered to be carcinogenic.
Never make the warning signs on the power tool unrecog-
u
nisable.
Never stand on the power tool. Serious injuries could
u
occur when the power tool tips over or when coming in
contact with the saw blade.
Do not take hold of the saw blade after working before it
u
has cooled. The saw blade becomes very hot while work-
ing.
Advance the saw blade against the workpiece only when
u
it is switched on. Otherwise, the danger of kick-back exists
when the saw blade catches in the workpiece.
The intended use is described in this instruction manual.
u
The use of any accessory or attachment or performance
of any operation with this tool other than those recom-
mended in this instruction manual may present a risk of
personal injury and/or damage to property.
Never place hands near cutting area. Keep hands outside
u
the "No Hands Zone" which includes entire table and is
labelled by "No Hands" symbols.
To avoid injury from materials being thrown, unplug the
u
saw to avoid accidental starting, and then remove small
materials.
Before use and after any maintenance the blade guard
u
must be checked to ensure proper function. This test must
be performed with the saw switched off and unplugged.
The arm must be raised and lowered to ensure the
guard covers the blade and the blade does not contact
the guard. If the guard fails to operate correctly, have
your power tool serviced by a qualified repair agent.
Call Stanley Fat Max customer services for you nearest
service agent.
