WARNING!

 

When using mains-powered tools, basic safety precautions, including the 

following, should always be followed to reduce risk of fire, electric shock, personal injury 

and material damage. 

Read the whole manual carefully and make sure you know how to switch the tool off in an emergency, before operating the tool. 
Save these instructions and other documents supplied with this tool for future reference.
The charger has been designed for 230V and 240V only. Always check that the power supply corresponds to the voltage on the rating 

plate.
Note: The supply of 230V and 240V on Ozito tools are interchangeable for Australia and New Zealand.

This tools charger is double insulated therefore no earth wire is required.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by an electrician or a power tool repairer in order to avoid a hazard.

Note:

 Double insulation does not take the place of normal safety precautions when operating this tool. The insulation system is for 

added protection against injury resulting from a possible electrical insulation failure within the tool.

Using an Extension Lead

Always use an approved extension lead suitable for the power input of this tool. Before use, inspect the extension lead for signs of 

damage, wear and ageing. Replace the extension lead if damaged or defective.
When using an extension lead on a reel, always unwind the lead completely. Use of an extension lead not suitable for the power 

input of the tool or which is damaged or defective may result in a risk of fire and electric shock.
The power supply for this products charger should be protected by a residual current device (rated at 30mA or less). A residual current 

device reduces the risk of electric shock.

 GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

 ELECTRICAL SAFETY

WARNING!

 

Read all safety warnings and all instructions. 

Failure to follow the warnings and 

instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.  

Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term “power tool” in the warnings 

refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

1. Work area safety 

a.  

 Keep work area clean and well lit

. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents. 

b.  

 Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable 

liquids, gases or dust.

 Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes. 

c.  

 Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.

 Distractions can cause you to lose 

control.

2. Electrical safety 

a.  

 Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any 

adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.

 Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk 

of electric shock. 

b.    

Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and 

refrigerators. 

There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded. 

c.    

Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.

 Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of 

electric shock. 

d.  

 Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. 

Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.

 Damaged or entangled cords increase the 

risk of electric shock. 

e.    

When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use.

 Use of 

a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock. 

f.  

 If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device 

(RCD) protected supply.

 Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock. 

3. Personal safety 

a.  

 Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. 

Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or 

medication.

 A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. 

b.  

Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection.

 Protective equipment such as dust 

mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries. 

c.  

 Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to 

power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. 

Carrying power tools with your 

finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents. 

d.    

Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on.

 A wrench or a key left 

attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury. 

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 jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves 

away from moving parts.

 Loose clothes, jewellery 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.

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.    

Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with 

the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.

 Power tools are dangerous in the hands 

of untrained users. 

e.    

Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts 

and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the 

power tool repaired before use.

 Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools. 

f.  

 Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.

 Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to 

bind and are easier to control. 

g.    

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. 

5. Battery tool use and care

a.

   Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. 

A charger that is suitable for one type of 

battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.

b.

    Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. 

Use of any other battery packs may 

create a risk of injury and fire.

c.

    When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, 

coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one 

terminal to another. 

Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.

d.

    Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact 

accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. 

Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

6. 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.

 CIRCULAR SAW SAFETY WARNINGS

  

WARNING!

 

a) Keep hands away from cutting area and the blade. Keep your second hand on auxiliary handle, 

or motor housing. 

If both hands are holding the saw, they cannot be cut by the blade.

b) Do not reach underneath the workpiece. 

The guard cannot protect you from the blade below the workpiece.

c) 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.

d) 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.

e) Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the 

cutting tool may contact hidden wiring. 

Contact with a “live” wire will also make exposed metal parts of the power 

tool “live” and shock the operator.

f) When ripping always use a rip fence or straight edge guide. 

This improves the accuracy of cut and reduces 

the chance of blade binding.

g) Always use blades with correct size and shape (diamond versus round) of arbour holes. 

Blades 

that do not match the mounting hardware of the saw will run eccentrically, causing loss of control.

h) Never use damaged or incorrect blade washers or bolt. 

The blade washers and bolt were specially 

designed for your saw, for optimum performance and safety of operation.

Further safety instructions for all saws

Causes and operator prevention of kickback:
• 

Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched, bound or misaligned saw blade, causing an uncontrolled saw to lift up and out of the 

workpiece toward the operator;
• When the blade is pinched or bound tightly by the kerf closing down, the blade stalls and the motor reaction drives the unit rapidly 

back toward the operator;
• If the blade becomes twisted or misaligned in the cut, the teeth at the back edge of the blade can dig into the top surface of the 

wood causing the blade to climb out of the kerf and jump back toward the operator.
Kickback is the result of saw misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper 

precautions as given below.

a) Maintain a firm grip with both hands on the saw and position your arms to resist kickback 

forces. Position your body to either side of the blade, but not in line with the blade. 

Kickback could 

cause the saw to jump backwards, but kickback forces can be controlled by the operator, if proper precautions are taken.

b) When blade is binding, or when interrupting a cut for any reason, release the trigger and hold 

the saw motionless in the material until the blade comes to a complete stop. Never attempt to 

remove the saw from the work or pull the saw backward while the blade is in motion or kickback 

may occur. 

Investigate and take corrective actions to eliminate the cause of blade binding.

c) 

When restarting a saw in the workpiece, centre the saw blade in the kerf and check that saw 

teeth are not engaged into the material.

 If saw blade is binding, it may walk up or kickback from the workpiece as 

the saw is restarted.

d) 

Support large panels to minimise the risk of blade pinching and kickback.

 Large panels tend to sag 

under their own weight. Supports must be placed under the panel on both sides, near the line of cut and near the edge of the panel.
e) 

Do not use dull or damaged blades.

 Blunt or improperly set blades produce narrow kerf causing excessive friction, 

blade binding and kickback.

f) Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking levers must be tight and secure before making cut.

 If 

blade adjustment shifts while cutting, it may cause binding and kickback.

g) Use extra caution when making a “plunge cut” into existing walls or other blind areas.

 The 

protruding blade may cut objects that can cause kickback.

h) Check lower guard for proper closing before each use. Do not operate the saw if lower guard 

does not move freely and close instantly. Never clamp or tie the lower guard into the open 

position.

 If saw is accidentally dropped, lower guard may be bent. Raise the lower guard with the retracting handle and make 

sure it moves freely and does not touch the blade or any other part, in all angles and depths of cut.

i) Check the operation of the lower guard spring. If the guard and the spring are not operating 

properly, they must be serviced before use.

 The lower guard may become sluggish due to, gummy deposits, or a 

build-up of debris.

j) Lower guard may be retracted manually only for special cuts such as “plunge cuts” and 

“compound cuts.” Raise lower guard by retracting handle and as soon as blade enters the 

material, the lower guard must be released.

 For all other sawing, the lower guard should operate automatically.

k) Always observe that the lower guard is covering the blade before placing saw down on bench 

or floor.

 An unprotected, coasting blade will cause the saw to walk backwards, cutting whatever is in its path. Be aware of the 

time it takes for the blade to stop after switch is released.

This appliance is not intended for use by

 persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental 

capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the 

appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

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.
Do not use the tool with abrasive or masonry/wet diamond wheels.
Only use blade diameter(s) in accordance with the markings on the tool.
