Normal intended use

The device is suitable for cutting wood, wood like materials
and plastics.
Round materials (logs, pipes, etc.) are not permitted to be
cut without a special device for this purpose.
When endwise sawing plain work pieces a suitable stop
angle must be used for a safe guidance.
Only workpieces which have been securely mounted and
aligned can be processed.
The intended usage also includes compliance with the
operating, servicing and repair conditions prescribed by
the manufacturer and following the safety instructions in-
cluded in the instructions.
The relevant accident prevention regulations for the op-
eration as well as the other generally acknowledged occu-
pational medicine and safety rules must be complied with.
Any other use is deemed not to be use as prescribed. The
manufacturer is not liable for any type of damage resulting
from this: the user bears the sole risk.
Independently made alterations to the circular saw preclude
any liability of the manufacturer for resulting damages of
any kind.
The saw band may only be equipped, used and serviced
by persons who are familiar with these and have been in-
structed in the hazards. Repair works may only be carried
out by us or by a customer service agent nominated by us.
The machine may not be used in a potentially explosive
environment or be exposed to the rain.
Metal parts (nails, etc.) must be removed from the timber to
be sawn.

Residual risks

Even if used properly, residual risks can exist even if the rele-
vant safety regulations are complied with due to the design
determined by the intended purpose.
Residual risks can be minimised if the "Safety information" and
the "Intended usage" as well as the whole of the operating
instructions are observed.
Observing these instructions, and taking proper care, will re-
duce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment.
Risk of injuries of fingers and hands by the tools (saw band)
or work piece, i.e. when exchanging the saw band.
Injury from parts of the workpiece spinning off.
Throwback of the workpiece or workpiece parts.
Break or skidding out of the saw band.
Risk from electricity, by using non-standard electrical con-
nections.
Touching live parts of opened electrical components.
Impairment of hearing when working on the machine for
longer periods of time without ear protection.
Emission of harmful timber dust when operating without
exhaust suction.
In addition, in spite of all the precautionary measures taken,
non-obvious residual risks can still exist.
