power tool, if they are not supervised or instructed
about use of the power tool by a person responsible
for their safety�
• 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�
• 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�
• Disconnect the plug from the power source
and / or the battery pack from the power tool be-
fore making any adjustments, changing accesso-
ries, or storing power tools� Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally�
• Store idle power tools out of the reach of chil-
dren 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�
• 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 op-
eration. If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools�
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control�
• 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 hazard-
ous situation�
• Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean
and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and
grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and
control of the tool in unexpected situations�
• Note that when you operate a power tool, please
hold the auxiliary handle correctly, which is helpful
when controlling the power tool� Therefore, proper
holding can reduce the risk of accidents or injuries�
Service
• 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�
• Follow instruction for lubricating and changing ac-
cessories�
safety warnings
Safety instructions for all saws cutting procedures
DANGER: Keep hands away from cutting
area and the blade. Keep your second
hand on auxiliary handle, or motor hous-
ing. If both hands are holding the saw, they
cannot be cut by the blade�
• Do not reach underneath the workpiece. The
guard cannot protect you from the blade below the
workpiece�
Special
• 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�
• 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� (Circular saw shall be correctly held and pro-
cessed workpiece shall be fastened as indicated in
figure 15).
• Hold the power tool by insulated gripping sur-
faces 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�
• When ripping, always use a rip fence or straight
edge guide. This improves the accuracy of cut and
reduces the chance of blade binding�
• 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�
• Never use damaged or incorrect blade washers
or bolt. The blade washers and bolt were specially
designed for your saw, for optimum performance and
safety of operation�

Kickback causes and related warnings
• 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 mo-
tor 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 incor-
rect operating procedures or conditions and can be
avoided by taking proper precautions as given below�
• 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 kick-
back forces can be controlled by the operator, if
proper precautions are taken�
• 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 kick-
back may occur. Investigate and take corrective
actions to eliminate the cause of blade binding�
• When restarting a saw in the workpiece, cen-
tre the saw blade in the kerf and check that saw
teeth are not engaged into the material. If saw
blade is binding, it may walk up or kickback from the
workpiece as the saw is restarted�
