Ensure the Dust Bag is fixed correctly. Without the
Dust Bag, when Tipped Saw Blades are damaged,
pieces of the blades fly off and can cause serious
personal injury.
Keep bystanders away from operations. Even with
the Dust Bag fitted, damaged blades or hot debris
can fly out of the bag, resulting in serious personal
injury.
Sparking may occur when cutting with Tipped Saw
Blades. Do not use the tool where there is the risk
of fire or explosion.
Cutting with Tipped Saw Blades is noisy. Consider
the work area environment.
Wear protective equipment; safety glasses, safety
shoes, dust mask and helmet. Even with the Dust
Bag fitted, damaged blades or hot debris can fly
out of the cover, resulting in personal injury.
Dress properly. Do not wear a tie, loose clothing or
knit gloves. Keep hair covered with a hair cover or
a cap to be away from rotating blades.
Ensure that Tipped Saw Blades are not deformed,
chipped, cracked or worn-out. Do not use a Tipped
Saw if any damage or wear is found. Cutting under
such conditions may cause further damage to the
blades and serious personal injury.
Do not use the Tipped Saw for any application
other than that stated in the tool specification.
Using the Tipped Saw for other applications can
cause excessive wear, detachment of blades, low
cutting performance and abnormal generation of
heat, resulting in damage to the blades and seri-
ous personal injury.
When replacing the Tipped Saw, ensure that the
battery is removed from the tool to prevent acci-
dental operation and personal injury.
operation and no abnormal sounds or abnormal
