Special Safety Instructions for Operation of the Circular Saw
ATTENTION! Risk of Injury! Turn off the saw and unplug the plug from the outlet before
attempting to install or remove the circular-saw blade. This way you prevent the circular saw
from being accidentally started.
The root of the circular-saw blade should always be in tight contact with the cut material.
Keep your hands away from the circular-saw blade.
Never touch the bottom of the material during cutting.
Make sure the circular-saw blade is sharp, undamaged and correctly adjusted. Otherwise, the
cutting edge could break and cause damage to the circular saw or operator’s injury.
Do not touch the circular-saw blade immediately after cutting. It could be hot.
Remove the adjustment key from the saw before starting the work.
Some machined materials may contain preservative substances which could be toxic. Avoid
inhaling saw-dust while machining such materials.
When cutting thin materials, make sure that the cut-off parts do not get into the retractable
guard of the saw.
ATTENTION! Wear dust mask and protective goggles while performing dusty work. Wear
protective goggles conforming to DIN 58214 standard. If the circular saw is used without eye
protection, foreign particles could get lodged in your eyes (such as cuttings or matchwood).
This could permanently damage your eyesight. Using protective goggles that do not conform
to DIN standard could result in serious injury for the reasons of possible shattering of the
protective glass.
ATTENTION! Choose appropriate circular-saw blade for the work you intend to do. Use this
circular saw only for cutting wood, wooden materials and soft metals such as aluminium.
Other materials could tear, rip or spring up, get hitched on the circular-saw blade or cause
other danger.
