blades that do not fit correctly with the as
sembly parts will run unevenly and may
cause fragments to break off from the ma
terial and be ejected. These fragments may
hit the eyes of the user or any persons
standing in the vicinity.
Only use saw blades with a chip angle ≤ 0°.
–
A chip angle > 0° will pull the saw into the
workpiece. There is a risk of injury caused
by saw kickback and the rotating work
piece.
Before each use, check that the pendulum
–
guard is working correctly. Only use this
power tool when it is in perfect working or
der.
Never reach into the chip ejector with your
–
hands. Rotating parts may injure your
hands.

–
Touching live parts when the housing is
open and the mains plug is still plugged in,
–
Workpiece parts being thrown off,
–

Sawing aluminium
When sawing aluminium, the following meas
ures must be taken for safety reasons:
–
Wear protective goggles.
–
Connect the power tool to a suitable dust
extractor with an antistatic suction hose.
–
Regularly clean dust deposits from the mo

cated with petroleum, but thin-walled pro
files (up to 1/8" (3 mm)) can be sawed with
out lubrication.
–
Do not use water cooling. This can cause a
short-circuit.
