create a narrow cutting groove and cause ex-
cessive friction, which limits the rotation of the
disc and leads to recoil.
• Before cutting, the levers for adjusting the
depth of the cut and the bevel angle of the
saw disc must be sufficiently and reliably tight-
ened If the disc position changes during cut-
ting, the disc may jam and recoil may occur.
• Extra care must be taken when cutting into ex-
isting walls or other places where you cannot
see. A disc that penetrates the other side of
the material can cut into the object, which can
cause recoil.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR MITER SAWS
• Miter saws are designed for cutting wood or
wood-like materials.They cannot be used with
cutting discs to cut ferrous materials such as
rods, screws, etc. Abrasive dust can cause the
lower guard to jam. Grinding sparks can burn
the bottom guard, insert plate or other plastic
parts.
• Use the clamp to secure the workpiece when-
ever possible. When holding the workpiece by
hand, hold it at least 100 mm from both sides
of the saw disc. Do not use the saw to cut
pieces that are too small to clamp or hold. If
you place your hand too close to the saw disc,
there is an increased risk of injury from contact
with the disc.
• You must fasten the workpiece with clamps
or hold it to the stop bar and the table. Never
hold the workpiece "only in your hand" when
cutting. Unattached or moving workpieces can
be dropped at high speed and cause injury.
• Push the saw when cutting with the workpiece.
Never pull the saw through the workpiece. To
make a cut, first lift the saw head and pull it
over the workpiece without cutting. Then you
start the motor, press the saw head and push
to cut the workpiece. If you make a pull cut,
the disc could reach the top of the workpiece
and be thrown sharply toward the machine
operator.
• Never place your hands across the intended
cutting line in front of or behind the saw disc.
Holding the workpiece with the "opposite
hand", i.e. Holding with your left hand on the
right side of the saw disc and vice versa is very
dangerous.
• When the disc is in motion, do not approach
the saw disc on either side by less than 100
mm with your hand behind the stop bar, either
to remove wood chips or for other reasons.
You may not be able to estimate the distance
between your hand and the disc correctly and
you could be seriously injured.
• Inspect the workpiece carefully before cutting.
If it is crooked or bent, attach it to the stop bar
on the outside of the arch. Always check that
there is no gap between the workpiece, the
stop bar and the table along the intended cut.
Curved or warped workpieces can rotate or
shift and can pinch the saw disc when cutting.
There should be no nails or foreign objects in
the workpiece.
• Do not use the saw until you have harvested all
tools, sawdust, etc. from the table and only the
workpiece remains on it. Small pieces of wood
or other material that comes into contact with
the rotating disc can be thrown away at high
speed.
• Always cut only one workpiece. Laminated
workpieces cannot be fastened properly and
can pinch the saw disc or move during cutting.
• Before use, make sure that the saw is mounted
or placed on a firm, level surface. A solid flat
surface reduces the risk of the saw becoming
unstable.
• Plan the work in advance. Each time you
change the inclination and cutting angle set-
tings, make sure that the stop bar sufficiently
supports the workpiece and does not interfere
with the discs or the protection system. With
a tool and no workpiece, make a blank test cut
and make sure that the stop bar does not ob-
struct or damage it.
• If you are cutting a workpiece that is wider or
longer than the top of the saw table, support it
properly with table attachments, wood cutting
goats, etc. Workpieces that are wider or longer
than the miter saw table and are not support-
ed may tip over. If the chip or workpiece is
overturned, it could lift the lower guard or be
dropped by the rotating disc.
• Do not use other people instead of table at-
tachments or as additional support. Insuffi-
cient workpiece support can cause the disc to
pinch or the workpiece to shift during cutting
and can pull you or your assistant toward the
rotating disc.
• The chip must not jam or otherwise be
