Safety instructions for circular saws
WARNING!
Read and follow all safety instructions and
other instructions in this manual.
Failure to observe the warnings and instruc-
tions may cause an electric shock, fire and/or
serious injuries. Keep this manual in a safe
place for subsequent use.
Sawing method

DANGER: Keep your hands away from
the sawing area and the saw blade. Hold
the auxiliary handle or the motor housing
with your second hand. If you hold the
saw with both hands, they cannot be
injured by the saw blade.

Do not grip under the workpiece. The
guard cannot protect you from the saw
blade under the workpiece.

Adjust the cutting depth to the thick-ness
of the workpiece. Less than one full tooth
height should be visible under the
workpiece.

Never hold the workpiece to be sawn
in your hand or over your leg. Secure the
workpiece in a stable clamp. It is
important that the workpiece is securely
attached to minimise the risk of contact
with the body, jamming of the saw blade
or loss of control.

Hold the electric power tool by the
insulated grip surfaces only if the
insertion tool is at risk of coming
into contact with concealed power
cables. If contact is made with a live
cable, the metal parts of the power tool
will also become live resulting in an
electric shock.

When cutting lengthwise, always
use a stop or a straight edge guide.
This improves the cutting accuracy and
reduces the possibility of the saw blade
jamming.

Always use saw blades of the correct
size and with matching mounting bore
(e.g. star-shaped or round). Saw blades,
which do not match the mounting parts of
the saw, will run untrue and result in loss
of control.

Never use damaged or incorrect saw
blade washers or screws. The saw blade
washers and screws have been specially
designed for your saw to ensure
optimum performance and operational
safety.
Kickback – causes and appropriate
safety instructions
A kickback is the sudden reaction caused
by a snagging, jamming or incorrectly
aligned saw blade which causes an
uncontrolled saw to lift and come out of the
workpiece in the direction of the user;
If the saw blade snags or jams in the closing
saw gap, it will lock and the motor power will
cause the saw to kickback in the direction
of the user;
If the saw blade twists or is incorrectly
aligned in the saw cut, the teeth on the back
edge of the saw blade may snag in the
surface of the workpiece, causing the saw
blade to move out of the saw gap and the
saw to jump back in the direction of the user.
A kickback occurs if the saw is used incor-
rectly or improperly. A recoil can be preven-
ted by appropriate precautions as described
below.

Hold the saw firmly with both hands and
move your arms into a position in which
you can absorb the kickback forces.
Always hold the saw blade sideways,
never bring the saw blade into line with
your body. If a kickback occurs, the saw
may jump backwards, however the user
can control the kickback forces by taking
suitable precautions.

If the saw blade jams or you interrupt
work, switch the saw off and hold
it steady in the workpiece until the saw
blade has come to a standstill.
Never attempt to remove the saw blade
from the workpiece or pull it backwards
while the saw blade is moving, other-
wise a kickback may occur. Establish
and eliminate the cause of the saw blade
jamming.
