Keep hands away from the sawing area. Do not reach
u
under the workpiece. Contact with the saw blade can
lead to injuries.
Only bring the power tool into contact with the work-
u
piece when switched on. Otherwise there is danger of
kickback if the cutting tool jams in the workpiece.
Ensure that the footplate always rests securely while
u
sawing. A jammed saw blade can break or lead to kick-
back.
When the cut is completed, switch off the power tool
u
and then pull the saw blade out of the cut only after it
has come to a standstill. In this manner you can avoid
kickback and can place down the power tool securely.
Always wait until the power tool has come to a com-
u
plete stop before placing it down. The application tool
can jam and cause you to lose control of the power tool.
Use only undamaged saw blades that are in perfect
u
condition. Bent or dull saw blades can break, negatively
influence the cut, or lead to kickback.
Do not brake the saw blade to a stop by applying side
u
pressure after switching off. The saw blade can be dam-
aged, break or cause kickback.
Use suitable detectors to determine if utility lines are
u
hidden in the work area or call the local utility com-
pany for assistance. Contact with electric lines can lead
to fire and electric shock. Damaging a gas line can lead to
explosion. Penetrating a water line causes property dam-
age or may cause an electric shock.
