Additional safety rules for circular saws
When sawing
• Always wear regular working gloves while
operating this tool.
• Do not operate the tool while standing in line with
the saw blade. Keep other persons away from
the work area.
• Make sure the saw blade is not contacting the
workpiece before the tool is switched on.
• Be aware of cutting chips and the material being
cut. They may be sharp and hot. Allow cut off
parts to cool before handling.
• Switch off the tool and wait for the saw blade to
stop before moving the workpiece or changing
the settings.
• After switching off, never attempt to stop the saw
blade by pressing against the side of the blade.
• Never put the saw down on a table or workbench
unless switched off.
• Do not attempt to saw extremely small
workpieces.

• Do not use cutting fluids. These fluids could
ignite, cause electrical shock, or chemically
attack the plastic sight window.
• Use this tool in a well-ventilated area. Do not
operate the tool near flammable liquids, gases or
dust. Sparks or hot chips from cutting or arcing
motor brushes may ignite combustible materials.
