e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of
the power tool in unexpected situations.
f. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away
from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g. If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure
these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
h. Not for use by children or people with reduced mental capacity.
4. Power tool use and care
a. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power
tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
b. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot
be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c. Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before
making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
d. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
e. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking
into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
f. Inspect tool before each use. Do not use if any parts are missing or damaged.
5. Service
a. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

•
Do not modify the Toe-Kick Saw in any way. Unauthorized modification may impair the
function and/or safety and could affect the life of the equipment. There are specific applications
for which the Toe-Kick Saw was designed.
•
Always check of damaged or worn out parts before using the Toe-Kick Saw. Broken parts
will affect the Toe-Kick Saw operation. Replace or repair damaged or worn parts immediately.
•
Store idle Toe-Kick Saw. When Toe-Kick Saw is not in use, store it in a secure place out of the

DANGER: Keep hands away from cutting area and the blade. If both hands are holding the
saw, they cannot be cut by the blade.
•
Do not reach underneath the workpiece. The guard cannot protect you from the blade below
the workpiece.
•
Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of the workpiece. Less than a full tooth of the
blade teeth should be visible below the workpiece.

Never hold piece being cut in your hands or across your leg. Secure the workpiece to a
stable platform.
It is important to support the work properly to minimize body exposure, blade
binding, or loss of control.
