18 EN Safety instructions
ATTENTION! Do not use grinding discs
- The arrow on the circular-saw blade indicating the running direction must indicate the same
direction as the arrow on the circular-saw guard. The teeth of the circular-saw blade must
match the running direction of the saw (downwards and forward).
- Keep the circular-saw blade and the clamping surface of the flange clean. The flange of the
circular-saw blade must always fit inwards into the rotating dropping guard (towards the
circular-saw blade).
- Make sure that all clamping devices and locking devices have been tightened and that no
parts shows excessive idle travel.
ATTENTION! Never cut objects while holding them in your hand.
ATTENTION! Make sure that the already cut-off parts cannot get into contact with the
circular-saw blade as they may be caught by the circular-saw blade and sprung up.
ATTENTION! Never cut more than one piece of material at the same time.
ATTENTION! Be especially careful when cutting large, very small or irregular pieces.
ATTENTION! No nails or other foreign objects may be present in the part of the machined
piece to be cut.
ATTENTION! No persons are allowed to stay near or behind the circular saw where saw
dust and cuttings are thrown away.
ATTENTION! Do not use the circular saw for cutting fire wood.
ATTENTION! Do not attempt to stop the circular-saw blade from rotating by exerting
pressure to its lateral face.
ATTENTION! Do not use circular-saw blades which do not conform, in terms of dimensions
and shape, to the requirements of this tool. Before cutting, fix the work-piece firmly e.g. using
clamps (they are not part of the supply).
ATTENTION! Keep your hands away from the cutting area and from the circular-saw blade.
Use your other hand to hold the auxiliary handle or the engine cover. If you hold the circular
saw with your both hands, they cannot be cut by the circular-saw blade.
ATTENTION! Adjust the cutting depth to at least the thickness of the processed material.
ATTENTION! If you carry out work during which the tool could get into contact with hidden
electric wiring or its own cord, hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces intended for
holding.
ATTENTION! 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 circular-saw blade but not in line
with the circular-saw blade.
