b.) Do not use a power tool where the switch is de-

fective. A power tool that cannot be turned on and

off is dangerous and must be repaired.

c.) Disconnect the plug from the wall outlet before

you make adjustments to the tool, change parts

or put the tool away. This precaution prevents in-

advertent start-ups of the tool.

d.) Store power tools that are not in use out of reach

of children. Do not let anyone use the tool who

does not have experience with it, or who has

not read these instructions. Power tools can be

dangerous when they are used by inexperienced

people.

e.) Take good care of your power tools. Make sure that

movable parts function properly and do not jam,

see that parts which inuence the use of the ma-

chine are not broken or damaged. Repair damaged

parts before operating the tool. Many accidents are

caused by poorly maintained power tools.

f.) Keep cutting edges sharp and clean. Properly

maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges

jam less often and are easier to control.

g.) Use power tools, accessories, and equipment ac-

cording to these instructions. Taking into account

the working conditions and the work being per-

formed.

The use of power tools other than those intended

for the tool itself can lead to dangerous situations.

5) Service

a.) Only let qualied service personnel repair your

tool and always use original replacement parts.

This guarantees that the power tool remains safe

to use.

Safety instructions for all saws

a.) DANGER: Do not put your hands in the sawing

area or on the saw blade. Keep your second hand

on the extra handle of the motor housing. If both

hands are holding the saw, neither can be injured

by the saw blade.

b.) Do not put your hands under the work piece. The

protective cap cannot protect your hands from

the blade when they are under the work piece.

c.) Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of the

work piece. Less than one complete sawing tooth

should be visible under the work piece.

d.) Never hold the work piece that is to be sawn in

your hand or over your leg. Make sure that the

work piece has a stable balance. It is important

that the work piece is held securely, in order to

minimize the danger of contact of a body part

with the saw, loss of control over the saw, or jam-

ming of the blade.

e.) Hold the equipment on the insulated handles,

when you undertake work in which the tool being

used could come into contact with hidden elec-

trical wires, or its own cable. Contact with a live

power source can electrify the metal parts of the

tool and lead to an electrical shock.

f.) When making a long cut, always use a stop

chock or a straightedge. This improves the accu-

racy of the cut and reduces the chance that the

saw blade jams.

g.) Always use the correct size of saw blades and

make sure they have the right locating bore (e.g.

Star shaped or round). Saw blades that do not t

the assembly of the saw do not run correctly and

cause loss of control.

h.) Never use damaged or incorrect saw blade shims

or screws. The saw blade shims and screws are

designed especially for your saw, for optimal per-

formance and operating safety.

Additional safety instructions for all saws

Causes and prevention of kickbacks:

• A kickback is a sudden reaction due to a caught,

jammed or incorrectly adjusted saw blade, which

leads to the saw rearing up in an uncontrolled man-

ner and moving out of the work piece towards the

operator.

• If a saw blade catches or jams in the sawing edge

that closes behind it, it is blocked and motor’s drive

pushes the saw back in the direction of the operator.

• If the saw blade twists in the saw groove or is incor-

rectly positioned, the teeth at the rear side of the

saw blade edge catch in the surface of the work

piece. The saw then moves out of the saw groove

and springs back in the direction of the operator.

• A kickback results from an incorrect or faulty use of

the saw. It can be prevented, as will be described in

the following, by appropriate cautionary measures.

a.) Hold onto the saw with both hands and position

your arms so that they can absorb any energy

from a kickback. Always keep to the side of the

saw blade, and never bring it into line with your

body. In the case of a kickback, the circular saw

can jump backwards, but with adequate caution

the operator can deal with the energy of the kick-

back.

b.) If the saw blade jams or you want to interrupt your

work, then turn the saw off and keep the work

piece still until the saw blade comes to a full stop.

Never try to remove the saw from the work piece

or pull it out when the saw blade is moving since

then a kickback can occur. Find out the cause of

the jam and remove it.

c.) If you want to start up a saw that is in the work

piece, centre the saw blade in the sawed groove

and check that the saw blade teeth are not caught

in the work piece. If the saw blade is jammed, it

can jump out of the work piece or cause a kick

back when it is started up.

d.) Support larger work pieces in order to reduce the risk

of a kick back due to a saw blade jam. The weight of

larger work pieces can cause them to bend. Large

pieces must be supported on both sides, both near

the sawing slot as well as on the edges.
