spond to EN 847-1.

b) Do not use sanding belts.

c) Only use the manufacturer’s original saw blades with

the number Ø 160 mm, 5500/min, 160 x 20 x 2.0.

Do not use any saw blades which do not correspond to

the characteristics described in these operating instruc-

tions. Saw blades may not be brought to a stop by pres-

sure on the machine from the side.

Make sure that the saw blade is tightly assembled and

turns in the correct direction.

m Special Safety Instructions

Safety instructions for circular saws

- Hold the equipment on the insulated handles, when

you undertake work in which the tool being used could

come into contact with hidden electrical 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.

m Proper use

CE tested machines meet all valid EC machine guidelines as

well as all relevent guidelines for each machine.

• The machine must only be used in technically perfect

con dition in accordance with its designated use and

the in structions set out in the operating manual, and

only by safety-conscious persons who are fully aware of

the risks involved in oerating the machine. Any func-

tional dis orders, especially those affecting the safety of

the machine, sholud terefore be rectiﬁed immediately.

• Any other use exceeds authorization. The manufacturer

is not responsible for any damages resulting from un-

authorized use; risk is the sole responsibility of the

operator.

• The safety, work and maintenance instructions of the

manufacturer as well as the technical data given in

the calibrations and dimensions must be adhered to.

• Relevant accident prevention regulations and other,

gene rally recognized safety-technical rules must also

be adhered to.

• The machine may only be used, maintained, and op-

erated by persons familiar with it and instructed in its

operation and procedures. Arbitrary alterations to the

machine release the manufacturer from all responsi-

bility for any resulting damages.

• The machine may only be used with original accesso-

ries and tools made by the manufacturer.

• The machine may not be operated with sanding belts.

mSafety instructions for inserted circular saw use

a) Each time before you use the saw, make sure that the

protective covering closes. Do not use the saw if the pro-

tective covering cannot move freely and does not close

immediately. Never clip or tie the protective covering

in an opened position. If the saw should accidentally

fall to the ground, the protective covering can get bent.

Make sure that the protective covering can move freely

and does not touch the saw blade or other parts in all

cutting positions.

b) Check the condition and function of the spring for the

protective covering. Have the saw repaired before use if

the protective covering and spring do not work perfectly.

Damaged parts, sticky residuals or piles of saw dust can

interfere with the working of the lower protective cover.

c) When making an “inserted cut” that does not describe

a right angle, make sure that the saw is guarded against

slipping to the side. Slippage can lead to a saw blade

jam and a kickback.

d) Do not put the saw on the workbench or the ﬂoor wi-

thout making sure that the protective cover is over the

saw blade. An unprotected, running saw blade can move

the saw against the cutting direction and saw what is in

the way. Check the delay time of the saw.

mAdditional safety instructions for all

sawing with a wedge

a) Use the right wedge for the saw blade that is in use.

The wedge must be thicker than the thickness of the

steel blade but thinner than the width of the teeth.

b) Adjust the wedge as described in the operating inst-

ructions. Incorrect thickness, position or direction can

be the reason that the wedge does not effectively pre-

vent a kickback.

c) Always use a wedge, except when making an inserted

cut. Reassemble the wedge after an inserted cut. The

wedge is in the way when making an inserted cut and

can cause a kickback.

d) In order for the wedge to be effective, it must be in

the sawing gap. For short cuts, a wedge does not work

to prevent kickbacks.

e) Never run the saw with a bent wedge. Even the smal-

lest defect can slow down the closing of the protective

cover.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL SAWS

• Do not use a sanding belt.

• Make sure that the wedge is adjusted so that the di-

stance to the sprocket ring of the saw blade is not

more than 5 mm and that the sprocket ring does not

stick out more than 5 mm above the lower edge of

the wedge.

• Make sure that the dust catching mechanism is cor-

rectly installed, as is described in this manual.

• Wear breathing protection.

• Only those saw blades recommended in the manual

should be used.
