(2.4) 3) general Power Tool safety
warnings [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 masks, 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
the 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 key left attached to a rotating part of
a 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 that these are connected and
properly used. Use of dust collection
can reduce dust-related hazards.
(2.5) 4) general Power Tool safety
warnings [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 a rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch
does not turn it on or off. Any power tool
that cannot be controlled with the switch
is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the power tool from the
power source and/or battery pack from the
power tool before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing power
tools. Such preventative 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 moving parts and any other
condition that may affect the power tools
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.
(2.6) 5) general Power Tool
safety warnings [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.

waRNINg:
When using this machine,
dust particles may be produced. In some
instances, depending on the materials you
are working with, this dust can be particularly
harmful. If you suspect that paint on the
surface of material you wish to cut contains
lead, seek professional advice. Lead based
paints should only be removed by
a professional and you should not
attempt to remove it yourself.
Once the dust has been deposited on
surfaces, hand to mouth contact can result
in the ingestion of lead. Exposure to even
low levels of lead can cause irreversible brain
and nervous system damage. The young and
unborn children are particularly vulnerable.
You are advised to consider the risks
associated with the materials you are working
with and to reduce the risk of exposure.
As some materials can produce dust that may
be hazardous to your health, we recommend
the use of an approved face mask with
replaceable filters when using this machine.
you should always:
• Work in a well-ventilated area.
• Work with approved safety equipment, such
as dust masks that are specially designed to
filter microscopic particles.
(2.8) waRNINg:
the operation of any power
tool can result in foreign objects being thrown
towards your eyes, which could result in
severe eye damage. Before beginning power
tool operation, always wear safety goggles
or safety glasses with side shield or a full face
shield where necessary.

(3.1) a) DaNgER:
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 or its own cord. 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 arbor
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,
