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.
Power tool use and care
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.
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.
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 preven-
tive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power
tool accidentally.
Store idle power tools out of the reach of chil-
dren 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.
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.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to control.
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions, tak-
ing 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.
Battery tool use and care
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.
Use power tools only with specifically desig-
nated battery packs.
Use of any other battery packs
may create a risk of injury and fire.
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.
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If con-
tact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liq-
uid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical
help.
Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation
or burns.
Service
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.
Safety Warnings for Circular Saws
Cutting procedures
DANGER: Keep hands away from cutting area
and the blade. Keep your second hand on aux-
iliary handle, or motor housing.
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 work-
piece.
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 sta-
ble platform.
It is important to support the work prop-
erly to minimize body exposure, blade binding, or loss of
control.
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping sur-
faces only, when performing an operation
where the cutting tool may contact hidden wir-
ing.
Contact with a “live” wire will also make exposed
metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the
operator an electric shock.
When ripping, always use a rip fence or
straight edge guide.
This improves the accuracy of
cut and reduces the chance of blade binding.
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.
