The tool must be used only for its prescribed purpose.
Any use other than those mentioned in this Manual will
be considered a case of misuse. The user and not the
manufacturer shall be liable for any damage or injury
resulting from such cases of misuse.
The manufacturer shall not be liable for any modifications
made to the tool nor for any damage resulting from such
modifications.
Even when the tool is used as prescribed it is not possible
to eliminate all residual risk factors. The following hazards
may arise in connection with the tool's construction and
design:
• Damage to eyes if effective protections is not worn
• Damage to the lungs if an effective dust mask is not
worn
• Damage to hearing if effective ear protection is not
worn
KICKBACK PREVENTION AND OPERATOR SAFETY:
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched, bound or
misaligned saw blade, causing an uncontrolled saw to
lift up and out of the workpiece toward the operator.
Kickback is the result of saw misuse and/or incorrect
operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided
by taking precautions as follows:
a. Maintain a firm grip with both hands on the saw and
position your arms to resist kickback forces. Position
your body to either side of the blade but not in line
with the blade. Kickback could cause the saw to
jump backwards, however, if precautions are taken,
kickback forces can be controlled by the operator.
b. When the blade is binding, or when interrupting a cut
for any reason, release the trigger and hold the saw
motionless in the workpiece until the blade comes to a
complete stop. Never attempt to remove the saw from
the work or pull the saw backward while the blade is in
motion.
LASER LIGHT SAFETY
WARNING
The laser system used in this tool does not
normally present an optical hazard, however it is
important to follow the safety rules below:
• Do not switch on the laser light until the tool is ready to
cut

Adittional Safety for Circular Saws / Laser Light Safety
Investigate and take corrective action to eliminate the
cause of blade binding.
c. When restarting a saw within an incomplete cut, centre
the saw blade in the kerf and check that the saw teeth
are not engaged into the material (a binding saw blade
may 'propel upwards' or kickback from the workpiece
as the tool is restarted).
d. A large workpiece should be supported close to the
line of the cut, and at the edge of the panel, to prevent
sagging. This will minimise the risk of blade pinching
and kickback.
e. Do not use dull or damaged blades. Unsharpened or
improperly set blades produce narrow kerf causing
excessive friction, blade binding and kickback.
f. Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking levers must
be tight and secure before making a cut. If blade
adjustment shifts while cutting, it may cause binding
and kickback.
g. Use extra caution when making a 'plunge cut' into
existing walls or other blind areas. The protruding blade
may cut objects causing kickback.
h. Check the lower guard before each use and do not use
if it does not close freely, ensuring that the blade does
not touch any part of the guard or tool in all angles and
depths of cut. Never clamp or tie the lower guard in the
open position.
i. Check the operation of the lower guard spring. If the
guard and the spring are not operating correctly, they
must be serviced before use. The lower guard may
operate sluggishly due to damaged parts, gummy
deposits, or a build-up of debris.
j. The lower guard should be retracted manually only
for special cuts such as 'plunge cuts' and 'compound
cuts.' Raise the lower guard by the retracting handle
and as soon as the blade enters the material, the lower
guard must be released. For all other sawing, the lower
guard should operate automatically.
k. Ensure that the lower guard is covering the blade
before placing the saw down. An unprotected, coasting
blade will cause the saw to 'propel backwards', cutting
whatever is in its path. Be aware of the time it takes for
the blade to stop after the switch is released. Do not
use abrasive wheels, doing so will void the warranty.
• Do not direct the laser light towards yourself or other
persons
• Do not point the laser at reflective sheet material as the
surface could direct the beam back at the operator or
other persons in the vicinity
• Changes to or replacement of the laser light assembly
should only be carried out by the manufacturer or an
authorised agent
