tie the lower guard into the open position. If the saw
is accidentally dropped, lower the 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 damaged parts, gummy
deposits, or a build-up of debris.
c ) The lower guard should be retracted manually only
for special cuts such as "plunge cuts" and "compound
cuts." Raise the lower guard by retracting handle
and as soon as the blade enters the material, the
lower guard must be released. For all other sawing, the
lower guard should operate automatically.
d ) Always observe that the lower guard is covering the
blade before placing saw down on bench or floor.
An unprotected, coasting blade will cause the saw to walk
backwards, cutting whatever is in its path. Be aware of the
time it takes for the blade to stop after switch is released.
Additional Safety Instructions for Circular
Saws
• Do not operate the machine without guards in position, or if
guards do not function or are not maintained properly.
• Select the correct blade for the material to be cut.
• Wear a dust mask.
• Do not use blades of larger or smaller diameter than
recommended. For the proper blade rating refer to the
technical data. Use only the blades specified in this manual,
complying with EN 847-1.
• Never use abrasive cut-off wheels.
• When sawing plastic, melting of the material is to be avoided.
• Please use only saw blades that are marked with a speed equal
or higher than the speed marked on the tool.

WARNING: Cutting plastics, sap coated wood, and other
materials may cause melted material to accumulate on
the blade tips and the body of the saw blade, increasing
the risk of blade overheating and binding while cutting.

WARNING: We recommend the use of a residual current
device with a residual current rating of 30mA or less.
Residual Risks
In spite of the application of the relevant safety regulations
and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual risks
cannot be avoided. These are:
• Impairment of hearing.
• Risk of personal injury due to flying particles.
• Risk of burns due to accessories becoming hot
during operation.
• Risk of personal injury due to prolonged use.
