properly. Do not use the saw when the lower guard does not
move freely and does not close immediately. Never fix or
leave the lower guard in the open position.
If the saw is dropped
accidentally, the lower guard may become bent. Lift the lower guard
with the pulling grip and make sure that it moves freely and does not
touch the saw or any other part for each angle and cutting depth
setting.
WARNING! Circular saw – additional safety warnings
Personal safety:
i) Check the operation of the lower guard spring. If the guard or
the spring does not work correctly, they should be repaired
prior to use.
The lower guard may move slowly due to damaged parts,
sticky deposits, or accumulation of refuse.
j) Manual retraction of the lower guard is allowed only during
special cuts, such as “pocket cuts” and “complex cuts.” Lift the
lower guard using the pulling grip; as soon as the saw blade
enters the material, the lower guard should become
released.
For all other types of cuts, the lower guard must work on its
own.
k) Always look to see if the lower guard covers the saw before
you place the saw on a table or on the floor.
Unprotected saw
blade will cause the saw to move backwards cutting any item on its way.
Keep in mind how much time it takes until the saw blade stops after the
tool is switched off.
REMARK! Use dust collector equipment!
If the manufacturer has provided dust suction and collection
equipment, check if it is connected and properly mounted.
WARNING!
Use protective equipment. Always use dust masks.
Contact with or inhalation of dust produced when using the
circular saw may cause hazard to the health of the user and potentially to
other persons located in the work area. To protect yourself from dust and
vapors, always wear a dust mask and assure the safety of other persons
present in the work area.
REMARK! Do not use circular saws with dimensions
other than those given in this document.
Use only blades with proper diameter and thickness
and suitable for the rotational speed of the specific saw.
Do not use blades made from high-alloy high-speed steel.
Saw blades made from this material break easily.
Do not use blades for metal or stone.
Install only sharp blades in a perfect condition; immediately
replace cracked or bent disks with new ones.
Check if the blade is firmly fixed and turns in the proper
direction.
WARNING!
Use protective equipment. Always wear protective
goggles.
WARNING!
Use protective equipment. Always use hearing
protection.

2. When using an extension cable make sure that the extension cable
parameters and cable cross-sections meet the tool requirements.
Extension cables used should be as short as possible. The extension
cable should be fully uncoiled.
3. Before switching on the saw make sure that there are no nails,
screws, bolts and/or other foreign objects in the material machined.
4. Never block the guard of cutting disk ( 1 6 ).
5. When starting and operating the saw hold it always by both handles
( 2 ) and ( 4 ) .
6. The tool can be turned on only when its blade ( 12 ) does not contact
the object machined.
7. Do not start cutting until the saw disk has reached its maximum
rotational speed.
8. Cutting is allowed only when the saw foot ( 8 ) rests securely on the
material.
9. Never apply exceeding force to the saw while cutting. It may result in
an accident leading to injury or death and/or damage to the
overloaded motor. Damage to the motor (burned winding) resulting
from machine overload is excluded from warranty cover!

10. The saw cannot be used for curved-lined cutting, edge machining
and milling as it may result in an accident leading to injury or death
