the device, change accessories or when
the device is put away.
This precaution is
intended to prevent you from unintentionally

functioning of the device. Have dam-
aged parts repaired before you use
the device.
Many accidents have their origins

function tool
When working, hold the electrical
power tool firmly with both hands and
keep a proper footing and balance.

ment.
Water entering an electrical device in-
creases the risk of electric shock.
Keep your hands away from the area
of the saw blade.
Do not grip the underside
of the workpiece. Contact with the saw blade
may result in injury.
Use a suitable detector to locate con-
cealed services supply cables / pipes

Damaging a gas pipe can lead to an explo-
sion. Penetration of a water pipe can lead to
property damage or to electric shock.
