Original instructions
We declare under our sole responsibility: These
circular saws, identified by type and serial number
*1), comply with all relevant requirements of the
directives *2) and standards *3). Technical file at *4)
- see page 3.
This machine is suitable for sawing wood, plastics,
metals and other similar materials.
The machine is not designed for plunge cuts.
The user bears sole responsibility for damage
caused by improper use.
Generally accepted accident prevention
regulations and the enclosed safety information
must be observed.
For your own protection and for the
protection of your power tool, pay atten-
tion to all parts of the text that are marked
with this symbol!
WARNING – Reading the operating instruc-
tions will reduce the risk of injury.
WARNING Read all safety warnings and
instructions. Failure to follow all safety warn-
ings and instructions may result in electric shock,
fire and/or serious injury.
Keep all safety instructions and information for
future reference.
Pass on your electrical tool only together with these
documents.
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
safety 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 minimise 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.
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 arbour 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 saw blade
plain washers or bolt. The blade washers and bolt
were specially designed for your saw, for optimum
performance and safety of operation.
Causes and operator prevention of kickback:
- kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched, bound
or misaligned saw blade, causing an uncontrolled
saw to lift up and out of the workpiece toward the
operator;
- when the blade is pinched or bound tightly by the
kerf closing down, the blade stalls and the motor
reaction drives the unit rapidly back toward the
operator;
- if the blade becomes twisted or misaligned in the
cut, the teeth at the back edge of the blade can dig
into the top surface of the wood causing the blade
to climb out of the kerf and jump back toward the
operator.
Kickback is the result of saw misuse and/or
incorrect operating procedures or conditions and
can be avoided by taking proper precautions as
given below.
a)
Maintain a firm grip with both hands on the
saw and position your arms to resist kickback
forces. Position your body to either side of the
blade, but not in line with the blade. Kickback
could cause the saw to jump backwards, but
kickback forces can be controlled by the operator, if
proper precautions are taken.
b)
When blade is binding, or when interrupting
a cut for any reason, release the trigger and
hold the saw motionless in the material until
the blade comes to a complete stop. Never
attempt to remove the saw from the work or
pull the saw backward while the blade is in
motion or kickback may occur. Investigate and
take corrective actions to eliminate the cause of
blade binding.
c)
When restarting a saw in the workpiece,
centre the saw blade in the kerf and check that
saw teeth are not engaged into the material. If
the saw blade is binding, it may walk up or kickback
from the workpiece as the saw is restarted.
d)
Support large panels to minimise the risk of
blade pinching and kickback. Large panels tend
to sag under their own weight. Supports must be
placed under the panel on both sides, near the line
of cut and near the edge of the panel.
e)
Do not use dull or damaged blades.
