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. Unsharp-
ened or improperly set blades produce narrow kerf
causing excessive friction, blade binding and kick-
back.
f) Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking levers
must be tight and secure before making cut. If
blade adjustment shifts while cutting, it may cause
binding and kickback.
g) Use extra caution when sawing into existing
walls or other blind areas. The protruding blade
may cut objects that can cause kickback.
Safety instructions for circular saws with outer pen-
dulum guard, circular saws with inner pendulum
guard , circular saws with tow guard
a) Check lower guard for proper closing before
each use. Do not operate the saw if lower guard
does not move freely and close instantly. Nev-
er clamp or tie the lower guard into the open
position. If saw is accidentally dropped, lower
guard may be bent. Raise the lower guard with the
retracting handle and make sure it moves freely
and does not touch the blade or any other part, in
all angles and depths of cut.
b) Check the operation of the lower guard spring.
If the guard and the spring are not operating
properly, they must be serviced before use.
Lower guard may operate sluggishly due to dam-
aged parts, gummy deposits, or a build-up of de-
bris.
c) Lower guard may be retracted manually only
for special cuts such as “plunge cuts” and
“compound cuts”. Raise lower guard by re-
tracting handle and as soon as blade enters
the material, the lower guard must be released.
For all other sawing, the lower guard should oper-
ate automatically.
d) Always observe that the lower guard is cov-
ering the blade before placing saw down on
bench or floor. An unprotected, coasting blade
will cause the saw to walk backwards, cutting what-
ever is in its path. Be aware of the time it takes for
the blade to stop after switch is released.
Additional safety instructions for all saws with riv-
ing knife
a) Use the appropriate saw blade for the riving
knife. For the riving knife to function, the body of
the blade must be thinner than the riving knife and
the cutting width of the blade must be wider than
the thickness of the riving knife.
b) Adjust the riving knife as described in this in-
struction manual. Incorrect spacing, positioning
and alignment can make the riving knife ineffective
in preventing kickback.
c)
Always use the riving knife except when
plunge cutting. Riving knife must be replaced af-
ter plunge cutting. Riving knife causes interference
d) For the riving knife to work, it must be engaged
in the workpiece. The riving knife is ineffective in
preventing kickback during short cuts.
e) Do not operate the saw if riving knife is bent.
Even a light interference can slow the closing rate
of a guard.
Wear hearing protection during continuous
operation. Exposure to noise can cause hearing
loss.
During operation provide eye protection to
prevent eyes from exposure to flying par
-
ticles. Wear goggles.
Take protective measures against in-
halation of dust. Some materials can
contain toxic ingredients.
Wear a dust
mask and work with dust/chip extraction when
connectable.
▪
Do not process materials containing asbestos. Asbes-
tos is considered carcinogenic.
▪
Use of protective gloves is recommended.
WARNING:
Before connecting a tool to a
power source be sure that the voltage supply is the
same as that specified on the nameplate of the tool.
▪
A power source with a voltage greater than that speci-
fied for the tool can result in serious injury to the user,
as well as damage to the tool.
▪
If in doubt, do not plug in the tool.
▪
Using a power source with a voltage less than the
nameplate rating is harmful to the motor.
▪ Fully unwind cable drum extensions to avoid potential
overheating.
▪
When an extension cable is required, you must en-
sure that it has the right ampere rating for your power
tool and it is in safe electrical condition.
WARNING:
Always switch off and unplug the
power tool prior to any adjustment, servicing or main-
tenance or in case of mains drop-out.
▪
Never use the machine with a damaged cable. Do
not touch the damaged cable and pull the mains plug
when the cable is damaged while operating. Dam-
aged cables increase the risk of electric shock.
▪
Always keep the cord away from the working area of
the power tool.
▪
Prior to operation remove all nails, screws and other
objects from the work piece. You may damage the
saw blade and the machine by cutting into a nail or
other metal. It can also present a safety hazard.
▪
Use clamps or a vice to secure your work whenever
possible.
▪
Never start the power tool under load. Make sure that
the saw blade is not in contact with the work piece
when you switch the machine on.
▪
Always switch off and wait until the saw blade has
come to a complete standstill before removing the
