SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR MULTI PURPOSE SAWS
OPERATION
Wear a hard hat (safety helmet), safety glasses and/or face shield.
It is also
highly recommended that you wear a dust mask, ear protection and padded gloves.
Check the blade carefully for cracks or damage prior to operation.
Replace
cracked or damaged blades immediately.
Hold the tool firmly during operation.
Ensure no one is below you
when using the tool in elevated conditions.
Do not point the tool at anyone
in the immediate vicinity.
Warning!
When making a "blind" cut (you can't see behind what is being cut),
be sure that hidden electrical wiring or water pipes are not in the path of the
cut. If wires are present, they must be disconnected at their power source by a
qualified person or avoided to prevent the possibility of lethal shock or fire.
Only hold the tool by the insulated gripping surfaces
to prevent electric shock
if you accidentally cut through a "live" wire. Water pipes in "blind" areas must be
drained and capped before cutting.
If the blade hits against objects during operation,
damage to the tool or
dangerous blade breakage may occur
Watch out for cut-off portions
of the work piece being cut. They may fall and
cause injury to you or someone near you.
When cutting metals,
be cautious of hot, flying debris.
Do not touch the blade or the work piece
immediately after operation; they may
be extremely hot and could potentially burn your skin.
Always switch off the tool
and wait until the blade has come to a complete stop
before withdrawing the blade from the work piece. This will prevent the blade from
snapping which could cause you to lose your grip and/or control of the saw.
Warning!
Always ensure that the Multi Purpose Saw is switched off and the
plug is disconnected from the power point prior to making any adjustments,
changing blades, cleaning or when the tool is not in use.
Fitting blades
The Multi Purpose Saw is
designed to accept different
blades which are suitable to cut
timber, metal or plastics.
