4. Intended use

The bench-type circular saw is designed for the slitting

and cross-cutting of all types of timber, commensurate

with the machine’s size.

The machine is not to be used for cutting any type of

roundwood.

The machine is to be used only for its prescribed pur-

pose. Any use other than that mentioned is considered

to be a case of misuse. The user/operator and not the

resulting such cases of misuse.

The machine is to be operated only with suitable saw

blades. It is prohibited to use any type of cutting-off

wheel. To use the machine properly you must also

observe the safety regulations, the assembly instruc-

tions and the operating instructions to be found in this
