Additional safety rules for cutsaws
Switching on and off
• After switching off, never attempt to stop the saw
blade with your fingers.
• Never put the saw down on a table or work
bench unless switched off. The saw blade will
keep running briefly after the tool has been
switched off.
When sawing
• When using saw blades specially designed for
cutting wood remove all nails and metal objects
from the workpiece before starting work.
• Wherever possible, use clamps and vices to
fasten the workpiece securely.
• Do not attempt to saw extremely small workpieces.
• Do not bend too far forward. Make sure that you
always stand firmly, particularly on scaffolding
and ladders.
• Always hold the saw with both hands.
• For cutting curves and pockets, use an adapted
saw blade.
Checking and changing the saw blade
• Only use saw blades conforming to the
specifications contained in these operating
instructions.
• Only sharp saw blades in perfect working
condition should be used; cracked or bent saw
blades should be discarded and replaced at once.
