Anleitung Zusammenfassung
• Never use your hands to remove sawdust, chips or waste close by the saw blade. • Use only blades as recommended. • Rags, cloths, cord, string and the like should never be left around the work area. • Avoid cutting nails. Inspect the workpiece and remove all nails and other foreign objects before beginning sawing. • Support the work properly. • Never reach over the blade to remove waste or off cuts. • Do not attempt to free a jammed blade before first switching off the machine. • Do not slow or stop a blade with a piece of wood. Let the blade come to rest naturally. • If you are interrupted when operating the saw, complete the process and switch off before looking up. • Periodically check that all nuts, bolts and other fixings are properly tightened. • Do not store materials or equipment above a machine in such a way that they could fall into it. • Ensure that your work is always on the table. Never attempt to cut anything that is not on the table.

Place the table onto the table trunnion. 3. Fix the table to the trunnion using the 4 hex head bolts and serrated lock washers. 4. Place the table insert into the hole in the centre of the table. 5. Replace the rip fence scale on the table. 6. Adjust the distance between the rip fence guides by raising the rip fence guide handle to unlock it and turning the handle.
