attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
e.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of
the power tool in unexpected situations.
f.
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.
g.
If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facili- ties, ensure
these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related
hazards.

Power Tool Use and Care
a.
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 de- signed.
b.
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.
c.
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.
d.
Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfa- miliar with
the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
e.
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, break- age of parts
and any other condition that may affect the power tools operation. If damaged, have the power
tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g.
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
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.

Specific Safety Rules
a.
DANGER: Keep hands away from cutting area and blade. Keep your second hand on auxiliary
handle or motor housing. If both hands are holding the saw, they cannot be cut by the Original
instructions blade.
b.
Do not reach underneath the workpiece. The guard cannot protect you from the blade below
the workpiece.
c.
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 work- piece to a stable
d.
platform. It is important to support the work properly to minimize body exposure, blade binding,
or loss of control.
e.
Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces 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 shock the operator.
