4.
Remove any adjusting key or
wrench before turning the power
tool on.
A wrench or a key left attached to
a rotating part of the power tool may result in
personal injury.
5.
Do not overreach. Keep proper
footing and balance at all times.
This enables better control of the power tool
in unexpected situations.
6.
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.
7.
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
1.
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.
2.
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.
3.
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 preventive safety measures reduce the
risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
4.
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.
5.
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.
6.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges are less likely to bind and are
easier to control.
7.
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.
Service
1.
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.

Counter-rotating double blade
saw warnings
Safety instructions for all saws – Cutting
procedures
1.
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.
2.
Do not reach underneath the
workpiece.
The guard cannot protect you
from the blade below the workpiece.
3.
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.
4.
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.
5.
Hold the power tool by insulated
gripping surfaces only, 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 could give
the operator an electric shock.
6.
When ripping, always use a rip fence
or straight edge guide.
This improves
the accuracy of cut and reduces the chance
of blade binding.
7.
Always use saw 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.
