enclosed safety information (red booklet) and the
instructions. Keep all enclosed documentation for
future reference, and pass on your power tool only

4 Special Safety Instructions
For your own protection and for
the protection of your power tool
pay attention to all parts of the text
that are marked with this symbol!
DANGER:
a) Keep hand away from cutting area and the
blade. Keep your second hand on auxiliary
handle, or motor housing. If both hands are
holding the saw, they cannot be cut by the blade.
b) Do not reach underneath the workpiece. The
guard cannot protect you from the blade below the
workpiece.
c) Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of
the workpiece. Less than a full tooth of the blade
teeth should be visible below the workpiece.
d) Never hold piece being cut in your hands or
across your leg. Secure the workpiece to a
stable platform. It is important to support the work
properly to minimize body exposure, blade binding,
or loss of control.
e) Hold power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces when performing an operation where
the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its
own cord. Contact with a "live" wire will also make
exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and
shock the operator.
f) When ripping always use a rip fence or straight
edge guide. This improves the accuracy of cut and
reduces the chance of blade binding.
g) Always use blades with correct size and shape
(diamond versus round) of arbour holes. Blades
that do not match the mounting hardware of the saw
will run eccentrically, causing loss of control.
