4.5 Particle emissions
Specifications
The working areas of this machine comply to BGI 739-1 and are classed as dust reduced.
The maximum concentration level of 2 mg/m³ of inhala­ble dust in the air will not be exceeded.
4.6 Noise emission
The specified values are emission values and therefore do not represent safe workplace values. Even though a relationship exists between particle emission and noise emission levels, an inference cannot be made about whether additional safety measures need to be imple­mented. Factors which can significantly affect the emis­sion level that presently exists at the workplace include duration of the effect, characteristics of the workspace,

Operation
Before starting work:
• Before commencing any work with the machine, inspect it to ensure that it is complete and in technically good condition.
• Ensure that there is sufficient space to work around the machine.
• Keep the work area orderly and clean. Components and tools that are not put in their correct place or put away may be the cause of accidents!
• Ensure that all safety devices have been installed properly.
• Adjustments to the machine or tool replacement may only be conducted once the machine has stopped.
• Only clamp authorised tools to the machine.
• Tighten the saw blade and scoring blade clamping screws
• Set the splitter correctly
• Only work with sharp tools. This reduces the kick­back risk especially with slotted blades
• Install the dust extraction system according to the instructions and test its function.
• Only machine workpieces that can be safely placed on the machine and guided.
• Carefully inspect workpieces for foreign matter (nails, screws) which might impair processing.
• Ensure that the tool turns freely.
• Ensure that each unit is rotating in the proper direction
• Before switching on the machine, always check to make sure that there are no other persons in the immediate vicinity of the machine.
During operation:
• Never place your hands on the workpiece by leaning over the circular saw and/or the scoring unit
• When changing to another workpiece or if a malfunction occurs, first switch off the machine and then secure it against being switched on again accidentally.
• Do not switch off, circumvent or decommission protective and safety devices during operation.
• Risk of injury from ejected tool pieces (e.g. cutting pieces). Therefore, never stand directly in the cutting line of the saw blade whilst it is operating (in machining or idling mode)
When working on or with the machine, the following must be strictly observed:
• Persons with long hair who are not wearing a hairnet are not permitted to work on or with the machine!
• It is prohibited to wear gloves while working on or with the machine.
When working on or with the machine, the following must always be worn by personnel:
• Sturdy, tight-fitting clothing (tear-resistant, no wide sleeves, no jewellery (rings, bracelets, necklaces, etc.)).
• Protective footwear - To protect the feet from heavy falling objects and prevent sliding on slippery floors
• Hearing protection - To protect against loss of hea­ring
Note: Accessories: Support long workpieces with additional surface equipment (e.g. Table extensions, roll supports). Keep tools for handling short and narrow workpieces close at hand (e.g.: Push Stick)
Attention! Risk of material damage!
!
Only operate the machine in ambient temperatures from +10°C to +40°C. If the instructions are not followed, damage may occur to bearings.

9.5.11 Groove cuts
Warning! Risk of injury!
• Groove cuts may only be carried out with an overhead saw guard! Do not, under any circumstances, use a saw blade guard (guard mounted onto splitter)!
• Do not pull back the fence guiding tracks (guide) of the rip fence!
• Do not remove the splitter!
• If the saw blade protrudes over the upper edge of the parallel cutting fence guide, guiding the workpiece safely is not guaranteed. A higher auxiliary fence must be used to ensure that the workpiece is guided safely.
• When working on small workpieces, use a wooden push stick, a push stick or a load feeding accessory.
1. Take note of general procedures for authorised work-
ing techniques.
2. Adjust the parallel cutting fence to the desired posi-
tion.
3. Lock the sliding table into a centre position.
4. Set the cutting height to a maximum of half that of
the workpiece thickness!
5. Select the cut sequence so that the cut batten falls
onto the sliding table side.
Should the cut batten fall to the right side of the circu-
lar saw, a wooden push stick has to be used due to the high kickback risk!
