5. General safety information
ATTENTION! The following basic safety measures
must be observed when using electric tools for pro-
tection against electric shock, and the risk of injury
and fire. Read all these notices before using the elec-
tric tool and keep the safety instructions for later ref-
erence.
Safe work
1. Keep the work area orderly
– Disorder in the work area can lead to accidents.
2. Take environmental influences into account
– Do not expose electric tools to rain.
– Do not use electric tools in a damp or wet en-
vironment.
– Make sure that the work area is well-illuminated.
– Do not use electric tools where there is a risk
of fire or explosion.
3. Protect yourself from electric shock
– Avoid physical contact with earthed parts (e.g.
pipes, radiators, electric ranges, cooling units).
4. Keep children away
– Do not allow other persons to touch the equip-
ment or cable, keep them away from your work
area.
5. Securely store unused electric tools
– Unused electric tools should be stored in a dry,
elevated or closed location out of the reach of
children.
6. Do not overload your electric tool
– They work better and more safely in the spec-
ified output range.
7. Use the correct electric tool
– Do not use low-output electric tools for heavy
work.
– Do not use the electric tool for purposes for
which it is not intended. For example, do not
use handheld circular saws for the cutting of
branches or logs.
– Do not use the electric tool to cut firewood.
8. Wear suitable clothing
– Do not wear wide clothing or jewellery, which
can become entangled in moving parts.
– When working outdoors, anti-slip footwear is
recommended.
– Tie long hair back in a hair net.
9. Use protective equipment
– Wear protective goggles.
– Wear a mask when carrying out dust-creating
work.

10. Connect the dust extraction device if you will be
processing wood, materials similar to wood, or
plastics.
– If connections for dust extraction and a collect-
ing device are present, make sure that they are
connected and used properly.
– When processing wood, materials similar to
wood, and plastics. Operation in enclosed spac-
es is only permitted with the use of a suitable
extraction system.
11. Do not use the cable for purposes for which it is
not intended
— Do not use the cable to pull the plug out of the
outlet. Protect the cable from heat, oil and sharp
edges.
12. Secure the workpiece
– Use the clamping devices or a vice to hold the
workpiece in place. In this manner, it is held
more securely than with your hand.
– An additional support is necessary for long
workpieces (table, trestle, etc.) in order to pre-
vent the machine from tipping over.
– Always press the workpiece firmly against
the working plate and stop in order to prevent
bouncing and twisting of the workpiece.
13. Avoid abnormal posture
– Make sure that you have secure footing and
always maintain your balance.
– Avoid awkward hand positions in which a sud-
den slip could cause one or both hands to come
into contact with the saw blade.
14. Take care of your tools
– Keep cutting tools sharp and clean in order to
be able to work better and more safely.
– Follow the instructions for lubrication and for
tool replacement.
– Check the connection cable of the electric tool
regularly and have it replaced by a recognised
specialist when damaged.
– Check extension cables regularly and replace
them when damaged.
– Keep the handle dry, clean and free of oil and
grease.
15. Pull the plug out of the outlet
– Never remove loose splinters, chips or jammed
wood pieces from the running saw blade.
– During non-use of the electric tool or prior to
maintenance and when replacing tools such as
saw blades, bits, milling heads.
