b.) Do not use a power tool where the switch is de-
fective. A power tool that cannot be turned on and
off is dangerous and must be repaired.
c.) Disconnect the plug from the wall outlet before
you make adjustments to the tool, change parts
or put the tool away. This precaution prevents in-
advertent start-ups of the tool.
d.) Store power tools that are not in use out of reach
of children. Do not let anyone use the tool who
does not have experience with it, or who has
not read these instructions. Power tools can be
dangerous when they are used by inexperienced
people.
e.) Take good care of your power tools. Make sure that
movable parts function properly and do not jam,
see that parts which influence the use of the ma-
chine are not broken or damaged. Repair damaged
parts before operating the tool. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f.) Keep cutting edges sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
jam less often and are easier to control.
g.) Use power tools, accessories, and equipment ac-
cording to these instructions. Taking into account
the working conditions and the work being per-
formed.
The use of power tools other than those intended
for the tool itself can lead to dangerous situations.
5) Service
a.) Only let qualified service personnel repair your
tool and always use original replacement parts.
This guarantees that the power tool remains safe
to use.
Safety instructions for all saws
a.) DANGER: Do not put your hands in the sawing
area or on the saw blade. Keep your second hand
on the extra handle of the motor housing. If both
hands are holding the saw, neither can be injured
by the saw blade.
b.) Do not put your hands under the work piece. The
protective cap cannot protect your hands from
the blade when they are under the work piece.
c.) Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of the
work piece. Less than one complete sawing tooth
should be visible under the work piece.
d.) Never hold the work piece that is to be sawn in
your hand or over your leg. Make sure that the
work piece has a stable balance. It is important
that the work piece is held securely, in order to
minimize the danger of contact of a body part
with the saw, loss of control over the saw, or jam-
ming of the blade.
e.) Hold the equipment on the insulated handles,
when you undertake work in which the tool being
used could come into contact with hidden elec-
trical wires, or its own cable. Contact with a live
power source can electrify the metal parts of the
tool and lead to an electrical shock.

f.) When making a long cut, always use a stop
chock or a straightedge. This improves the accu-
racy of the cut and reduces the chance that the
saw blade jams.
g.) Always use the correct size of saw blades and
make sure they have the right locating bore (e.g.
Star shaped or round). Saw blades that do not fit
the assembly of the saw do not run correctly and
cause loss of control.
h.) Never use damaged or incorrect saw blade shims
or screws. The saw blade shims and screws are
designed especially for your saw, for optimal per-
formance and operating safety.
Additional safety instructions for all saws
Causes and prevention of kickbacks:
• A kickback is a sudden reaction due to a caught,
jammed or incorrectly adjusted saw blade, which
leads to the saw rearing up in an uncontrolled man-
ner and moving out of the work piece towards the
operator.
• If a saw blade catches or jams in the sawing edge
that closes behind it, it is blocked and motor's drive
pushes the saw back in the direction of the operator.
• If the saw blade twists in the saw groove or is incor-
rectly positioned, the teeth at the rear side of the
saw blade edge catch in the surface of the work
piece. The saw then moves out of the saw groove
and springs back in the direction of the operator.
• A kickback results from an incorrect or faulty use of
the saw. It can be prevented, as will be described in
the following, by appropriate cautionary measures.
a.) Hold onto the saw with both hands and position
your arms so that they can absorb any energy
from a kickback. Always keep to the side of the
saw blade, and never bring it into line with your
body. In the case of a kickback, the circular saw
can jump backwards, but with adequate caution
the operator can deal with the energy of the kick-
back.
b.) If the saw blade jams or you want to interrupt your
work, then turn the saw off and keep the work
piece still until the saw blade comes to a full stop.
Never try to remove the saw from the work piece
or pull it out when the saw blade is moving since
then a kickback can occur. Find out the cause of
the jam and remove it.
c.) If you want to start up a saw that is in the work
piece, centre the saw blade in the sawed groove
and check that the saw blade teeth are not caught
in the work piece. If the saw blade is jammed, it
can jump out of the work piece or cause a kick
back when it is started up.
d.) Support larger work pieces in order to reduce the risk
of a kick back due to a saw blade jam. The weight of
larger work pieces can cause them to bend. Large
pieces must be supported on both sides, both near
the sawing slot as well as on the edges.
