Symbols And Their Meanings - Bosch PCM 8 Notice Originale

20 | English
If the workpiece or blade becomes jammed, turn the
u
mitre saw off. Wait for all moving parts to stop and
disconnect the plug from the power source and/or re-
move the battery pack. Then work to free the jammed
material. Continued sawing with a jammed workpiece
could cause loss of control or damage to the mitre saw.
After finishing the cut, release the switch, hold the
u
saw head down and wait for the blade to stop before
removing the cut-off piece. Reaching with your hand
near the coasting blade is dangerous.
Hold the handle firmly when making an incomplete cut
u
or when releasing the switch before the saw head is
completely in the down position. The braking action of
the saw may cause the saw head to be suddenly pulled
downward, causing a risk of injury.
Keep your work area clean. Material mixtures are partic-
u
ularly hazardous. Light metal dust may catch fire or ex-
plode.
Do not use dull, cracked, bent or damaged saw blades.
u
Unsharpened or improperly set saw blades produce
narrow kerf causing excessive friction, blade binding
and kickback.
Do not use saw blades made from high speed steel
u
(HSS). Such saw blades can easily break.
Always use saw blades with correct size and shape
u
(diamond versus round) of arbour holes. Saw blades
that do not match the mounting hardware of the saw will
run off-centre, causing loss of control.
Do not replace the integrated laser with a laser of an-
u
other type. A laser that is not compatible with this power
tool could pose a risk to persons.
Never remove cuttings, wood chips, etc. from the cut-
u
ting area while the power tool is running. Always guide
the tool arm back to the neutral position first and then
switch the power tool off.
Do not touch the saw blade after working before it has
u
cooled. The saw blade becomes very hot while working.
Never make warning signs on the machine unrecognis-
u
able.

cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place by an au-
thorised customer service agent. The replacement plug
should have the same fuse rating as the original plug.
The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible
shock hazard and should never be inserted into a mains
socket elsewhere.

dents or damage to the eyes.
If laser radiation hits your eye, you must close your
u
eyes and immediately turn your head away from the

u
