- Examine the workpiece for foreign objects. Never
attempt to cut into nails or other metal objects.
- Protect the machine and the rechargeable
batteries from humidity!
- Do not throw the rechargeable batteries into a fire!
- Do
not
use any
rechargeable batteries!
- Do not open the rechargeable batteries!
- Do not touch the contacts of the rechargeable
batteries and do not short-circuit them!
- A slightly acidic, combustible liquid may leak from
defective li-ion rechargeable batteries! If any
battery liquid is leaking and comes in contact with
the skin, immediately rinse with a copious amount
of water. If any battery liquid gets into your eyes,
rinse with clean water and immediately consult a
doctor for medical treatment!
- Remove the rechargeable batteries from the
machine before carrying out any setting, retooling,
maintenance or cleaning tasks.
- Ensure that the machine is switched off when you
push in the rechargeable battery.
- Please remove the rechargeable battery from the
machine if the machine is put down, transported or
stored unattended.
Do not use:
- Cracked and misshapen saw blades.
- Saw blades made of high speed steel (HSS saw
blades).
- Blunt saw blades as they impose an excessive
load on the motor.
- Saw blades with a base body with a thickness
greater than, or a cutting width (setting) less than,
the thickness of the riving knife / splitter.
- Saw blades which are not suitable for the saw
blade's idling speed.
- Grinding discs
defective or deformed
Instructions on the use of personal protective
equipment:
- Always wear ear protectors during work.
- Always where a dust mark during work.

Sawing method
Danger
- Keep hands 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.
- Do not reach underneath the workpiece. The
guard cannot protect you from the blade below the
workpiece.
- 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.
- Never hold the workpiece in your hands or
across your leg while cutting. Secure the
workpiece to a stable platform. It is important to
support the work properly to minimise body
exposure, blade binding, or loss of control.
- Hold the 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 could give the operator an electric shock.
- When ripping, always use a rip fence or
straight edge guide. This improves the accuracy
of cut and reduces the chance of blade binding.
- 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 off-centre, causing loss of control.
- Never use damaged or incorrect blade washers
or bolt. The blade washers and bolt were specially
designed for your saw, for optimum performance
and safety of operation.
