1. Kupu Whakataki
This instruction manual provides essential information for the safe and efficient operation, setup, and maintenance of your Einhell TC-SM 216 Sliding Miter Saw. Please read this manual thoroughly before using the tool to ensure proper handling and to prevent injury or damage.
The Einhell TC-SM 216 sliding miter saw is designed for precise sawing and cutting tasks in home workshops and garages. Featuring a 1600 W motor, it uses a 216 mm diameter blade (30 mm bore). The saw includes a smooth sliding function for wide workpieces, a rotating table with quick-set detents for common angles, and a left-tilting saw head for miter cuts. It offers a cutting width of up to 305 mm at 90° and 210 mm at 45°. A visible integrated laser guides cuts. Workpiece supports and a clamping device secure longer materials. The high-quality tungsten carbide saw blade ensures clean cuts, and a spindle lock simplifies blade changes. A dust funnel and 36 mm extraction port, or the included dust bag, manage sawdust.
2. Nga Tohutohu Haumaru Whanui
WHAKATŪPATO:
Pānuihia nga whakatupato haumaru katoa, nga tohutohu, nga whakaahua, me nga korero e whakaratohia ana me tenei taputapu hiko. Ki te kore e whai i nga tohutohu katoa kua whakarārangihia i raro ake nei ka puta pea he ru hiko, he ahi, he whara kino/ranei.
2.1 Haumaru Wāhi Mahi
- Kia ma te waahi mahi me te whakamarama pai. Ko nga waahi pouri, nga waahi pouri ranei ka pa mai nga aitua.
- Kaua e whakahaere i nga taputapu hiko i roto i nga hau puhipuhi, penei i te waahi o te wai mura, hau, puehu ranei. Ka hangaia e nga taputapu hiko nga korakora e mura ai te puehu me te kohu.
- Tiakina nga tamariki me nga tangata e tu ana i te wa e whakahaere ana i te taputapu hiko. Ka taea e nga whakararu ka ngaro koe i te mana whakahaere.
2.2 Haumaru Hiko
- Me rite nga mono taputapu hiko ki te putanga. Kaua rawa e whakarereketia te mono i tetahi huarahi. Kaua e whakamahi i nga mono urutau me nga taputapu hiko kua oti te whakamaarama. Ko nga mono kare i whakarereketia me nga putanga orite ka whakaiti i te tupono o te ru hiko.
- A ape i te pa atu ki te tinana ki nga papa whenua, ki te whenua ranei, penei i nga paipa, nga radiators, nga awhe, me nga pouaka whakamatao. Ka nui ake te mate o te wiri hiko mena ka noho to tinana ki te whenua ranei.
- Kaua e tukuna nga taputapu hiko ki te ua, te makuku ranei. Ko te wai ka uru ki roto i te taputapu hiko ka nui ake te tupono o te ru hiko.
2.3 Haumaru Whaiaro
- Mau tonu te whakamarumaru kanohi. Whakamahia he mohiti haumaru, he mohiti, he parepare kanohi ranei.
- Wear hearing protection when operating the saw.
- Kia tika te kakahu. Kaua e kakahuria nga kakahu taratara me nga whakapaipai. Tiakina o makawe me o kakahu mai i nga waahanga neke.
- Kaua e toro atu. Kia tika te turanga me te taurite i nga wa katoa.
- Always use a dust mask if operations create dust.
2.4 Miter Saw Specific Safety
- Whakamaua te taonga mahi ki te clamping device. Do not hold the workpiece by hand.
- Ensure the blade is sharp and correctly installed.
- Never attempt to remove cut-off material while the blade is rotating.
- Tukua te mata kia eke ki te tere katoa i mua i te tīmatanga o te tapahi.
- Do not operate the saw without all guards in place.
