 • Connectthesawtoadustcollectiondevicewhensawingwood.
Always consider factors which influence exposure of dust such as:
-– type of material to be machined (chip board produces more
dust than wood);
-– sharpness of the saw blade;
-– correct adjustment of the saw blade,
-– dust extractor with air velocity not less than 20 m/s.
  Ensurethatthelocalextractionaswellashoods,bafflesand
chutes are properly adjusted.

– Longer workpieces need to be supported by suitable additional
table, e.g. DE7023. Always clamp the workpiece safely.

 • Whenthesawbladeisblockedduetoabnormalfeedforceduring
cutting, turn the machine off and disconnect it from power supply.
Remove the workpiece and ensure that the saw blade runs free.
Turn the machine on and start new cutting operation with reduced
feed force.
 • Nevercutlightalloy,especiallymagnesium.
 • Whenever the situation allows, mount the machine to a bench
using bolts with a diameter of 8 mm and 80 mm in length.
Residual Risks
The following risks are inherent to the use of saws:
– injuries caused by touching the rotating parts
In spite of the application of the relevant safety regulations and the
implementation of safety devices, certain residual risks cannot be
avoided. These are:
– Impairment of hearing.
– Risk of accidents caused by the uncovered parts of the rotating
saw blade.
– Risk of injury when changing the unprotected saw blade.
– Risk of squeezing fingers when opening the guards.
– Health hazards caused by breathing dust developed when sawing
wood,especiallyoak,beechandMDF.
The following factors increases the risk of breathing problems:
– No dust extractor connected when sawing wood
– Insufficient dust extraction caused by uncleaned exhaust filters
