INSTRUCTIONS FOR
SAFE HANDLING
1. Make sure that the voltage used corresponds to the
voltage marked on the tool's identification plate.
2. Never use the tool if its cover or any bolts are missing.
If the cover or bolts have been removed, replace them
prior to use. Maintain all parts in good working order.
3. Always secure tools when working in elevated
positions.
4. Never touch the blade, grinding wheel or other moving
parts during use.
5. Never start a tool when its rotating component is in
contact with the workpiece.
6. Never lay a tool down before its moving parts have
come to a complete stop.
7. ACCESSORIES: The use of equipment or accessories
other than those recommended in this manual might
present a hazard.
8. REPLACEMENT PARTS: When servicing, use only
identical replacement parts.
SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
FOR CIRCULAR SAWS
1. This saw is designed for working with wood only.
Never use it to cut materials other than wood.
2. Make sure that the saw blade is properly attached
as described in the Operating Instructions before
connecting the tool to the power source.
3. Never point the blade towards any person since this
is extremely dangerous.
4. Make sure the power cord is well away from the material
to be cut to prevent the risk of electrical shocks.
5. Hold the saw firmly before switching it on, as inertial
force could cause the saw to break free from your grasp.
6. Always hold the saw firmly with both hands while cutting.
Single-handed operation is extremely dangerous.
7. Do not start cutting until the blade has reached
full speed.
8. It is extremely dangerous to use a circular saw
upside down, i.e. with its blade pointing upwards
while the motor housing is secured by a vice or other jig.
9. KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE AND IN GOOD
WORKING ORDER. Never wedge or tie the lower
guard open. Check the operation of the lower guard
before each use. Do not use your saw if the lower
guard does not close properly over the saw blade.
CAUTION!
If the saw is dropped, the lower guard may be
bent, restricting full return.
10. KEEP THE BLADE CLEAN AND SHARP AT ALL
TIMES. A sharp blade minimises jamming and kickback.
11. DANGER!
KEEP HANDS AWAY FROM THE CUTTING AREA.
Keep hands away from the blade. Do not reach
underneath the workpiece while the blade is rotating.
Do not attempt to remove any offcuts while the blade
is moving.
CAUTION!
The blade coasts a little while after the trigger
is released.
12. SUPPORT LARGE PANELS. Large panels must be
supported as shown in Fig. 12 to minimise the risk of
blade pinching and kickback. When the saw has to be
rested on the workpiece, make sure that it rests on
the larger portion, with the smaller portion being cut off.
13. USE A RIP FENCE. Always use a rip fence when
ripping.
14. GUARD AGAINST KICKBACK. Kickback occurs
when the saw jams suddenly and is driven back
towards the operator. Release the switch immediately
if the blade binds or the saw jams. Keep blades sharp.
Do not force the tool. Stay alert and remain in control
of the tool. Do not pull out the saw out of the
workpiece while the blade is spinning.
15. Make sure that all blade guards operate correctly.
16. LOWER GUARD. Raise the lower guard with the
lower guard lever. Ensure that the lower guard
operates freely without jamming. Do not lock the
lower guard in the open position.
17. ADJUSTMENTS. Before cutting, make sure that the
depth and bevel adjustment knobs are tight.
18. WARNING!
ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE POWER CORD FROM
THE SOCKET BEFORE CHANGING THE BLADE
OR PERFORMING OTHER MAINTENANCE WORK.
19. ONLY USE CORRECT BLADES.
Do not use blades with incorrect size holes.
Never use defective or incorrect blade washers
or bolts.
Do not use blades which are deformed or damaged.
Do not use high speed steel blades.
Do not use blades which do not comply with the
specifications given in this manual.
20. Do not use saw blades the disc of which is thicker, or
the set of which is smaller, than the thickness of the
riving knife.
