16 English
Use the matching riving knife for the saw
blade used. The riving knife must be thicker
than the body of the saw blade but thinner
EN
than the tooth width of the saw blade.
Adjust the riving knife as described in the
operating instructions. Incorrect thickness,
positioning and alignment can make the riving
knife ineffective in preventing kickback.
Always use the riving knife, except when
making plunge cuts. Refit the riving knife
after the plunge cut. The riving knife causes
interference during plunge cutting and may
cause kickback.
For the riving knife to be effective, it must
be in the kerf. The riving knife is ineffective
in preventing kickback during short cuts.
Never operate the saw with a bent riving
knife. Even minor interference can slow the
closing of the protective cover.
Do not put the saw down vertically on top
of the mains cable. This might damage the
mains cable.
Residual risks: Although the operating manuals
for our power tools contain detailed instructions on
safe working with power tools, every power tool
involves certain residual risks that cannot be com-
pletely prevented through safety mechanisms.
Power tools must therefore always be operated
with the necessary caution!
