5 GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow all warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains operated (corded) power tool or battery operated (cordless) power tool.
5.1 Work area
Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause
you to lose control.
5.2 Electrical safety
Always check that the power supply corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate.
Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any
adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power
tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use
of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device
(RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
5.3 Personal safety
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool.
Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as dust mask,
non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used whenever conditions require will reduce personal injuries.
Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before plugging in.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key
left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control
of the power tool in unexpected situations.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
Copyright © 2008 VARO P a g e | 6 www.varo.com
If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure
these are connected and properly used. Use of these devices can reduce dust related hazards.
5.4 Power tool use and care
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct
power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that
cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with
the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or sticking of moving parts, breakage of parts
and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to stick and are easier to control.
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance with these instructions and
in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from intended could lead to a hazardous situation.
5.5 Service
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
6 ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR TABLE SAWS
6.1 For both Mitre saw mode and table saw (bench saw) mode:
Wear eye and hearing protection. Other suitable personal protective equipment should be
worn.
NEVER wear gloves during operation except for replacing saw blades or handling rough
material before operation.
Keep the floor area around the tool level, well maintained and free of loose materials e.g.
chips and cut-offs.
Do not operate saw without guards and riving knife in place. Check blade guards for proper
closing before each use. Do not operate saw if blade guards do not move freely and close instantly. Never clamp or tie the blade guards into the open position. Any irregular operation of the blade guards should be corrected immediately.
Clean and be careful not to damage the spindle, flanges (especially the installing surface)
and hex bolt before or when installing the blade. Damage to these parts could result in blade breakage. Poor installation may cause vibration/ wobbling or slippage of the blade. Use only flanges specified for this tool.
Check the blade carefully for cracks or damage before operation. Do not use saw blade
which are damaged or deformed.
Use only saw blades recommended by the manufacturer and which conform to EN847-1,
and observe that the riving knife must not be thicker than the width of the cut by the saw blade and not thinner than the body of the blade.
Always use accessories recommended in this manual. Use of improper accessories such as
abrasive cut-off wheels may cause an injury.
POWX0761 EN

Select the correct saw blade for the material to be cut.
POWX0761 EN
Do not use saw blades manufactured from high speed steel. To reduce the emitted noise, always be sure that the blade is sharp and clean. Use correctly sharpened saw blades. Observe the maximum speed marked on the saw
blade.
Do not cut metals such as nails and screws. Inspect for and remove all nails, screws and
other foreign matter from the workpiece before operation.
 Knock out any loose knots from workpiece BEFORE beginning to cut.  Don’t use the tool in the presence of flammable liquids or gases.  For your safety, remove the chips, small pieces, etc. from the work area and table top
before plugging the tool and starting operation.
The operator is adequately trained in the use, adjustment and operation of the tool. Keep hands and make your bystander and yourself position out of path of and not in line
with saw blade. Avoid contact with any coasting blade. It can still cause severe injury and never reach around saw blade.
Be alert at all times, especially during repetitive, monotonous operations. Don't be lulled into
(6) false sense of security. Blades are extremely unforgiving.
Make sure the shaft lock is released before the switch is turned on. Before using the tool on an actual workpiece, let it run for (6) while. Watch for vibration or
wobbling that could indicate poor installation or (6) poorly balanced blade.
Wait until the blade attains full speed before cutting. The tool should not be used for slotting, rabbetting or grooving. Retain from removing any cut-offs or other parts of the workpiece from the cutting area
whilst the tool is running and the saw head is not in the rest position.
Stop operation immediately if you notice anything abnormal. Turn off tool and wait for saw blade to stop before moving workpiece or changing settings. Unplug tool before changing blade, servicing or not in use. Some dust created from operation contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects
or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
lead from lead-based-painted material and, arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in (6) well ventilated area and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
Connect the tool to (6) dust collecting device when sawing. Make sure that the table is securely fixed with the lever after turning it over.
6.2 When using in Mitre saw mode:
Do not use the saw to cut other than wood, aluminum or similar materials. Do not perform operation freehand when cutting workpiece in an area close to saw blade.
The workpiece must be secured firmly against the turn table and guide fence during all operations.
Make sure that the turn table is properly secured so it will not move during operation. Make sure that the arm is securely fixed when beveling. Tighten the lever clockwise to fix
the arm.
Make sure the blade does not contact the turn table in the lowest position and is not
contacting the workpiece before the switch is turned on.
Hold the handle firmly. Be aware that the saw moves up or down slightly during start-up and
stopping.
