Worx WX427 Notice Originale page 12

f) Blade depth and bevel adjusting
locking levers must be tight and
secure before making cut. If blade
adjustment shifts while cutting, it may
cause binding and kickback.
g) Use extra caution when sawing into
existing walls or other blind areas. The
protruding blade may cut objects that can
cause kickback.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR
SAWS (CIRCULAR SAW WITH
PIVOTING LOWER GUARD)
Lower Guard Function
a) Check lower guard for proper closing
before each use. Do not operate the
saw if lower guard does not move
freely and close instantly. Never
clamp or tie the lower guard into the
open position. If saw is accidentally
dropped, lower guard may be bent. Raise
the lower guard with the retracting handle
and make sure it moves freely and does
12
not touch the blade or any other part, in all
angles and depths of cut.
b) Check the operation of the lower
guard spring. If the guard and the
spring are not operating properly,
they must be serviced before use.
Lower guard may operate sluggishly due
to damaged parts, gummy deposits, or a
build-up of debris.
c) Lower guard may be retracted
manually only for special cuts such
as "plunge cuts" and "compound
cuts." Raise lower guard by retracting
handle and as soon as blade enters
the material, the lower guard must be
released. For all other sawing, the lower
guard should operate automatically.
d) Always observe that the lower guard
is covering the blade before placing
saw down on bench or floor. An
unprotected, coasting blade will cause the
saw to walk backwards, cutting whatever is
in its path. Be aware of the time it takes for
the blade to stop after switch is released.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY
RULES FOR YOUR
CIRCULAR SAW
1. Always wear a dust mask, hearing
protection and eye protection.
2. Only use saw blades recommended in the
specification.
3. Use only blade diameter(s) in accordance
with the markings.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY
RULES FOR YOUR
CUTTING-OFF MACHINES
a) The guard provided with the tool must
be securely attached to the power
tool and positioned for maximum
safety, so the least amount of wheel
is exposed towards the operator.
Position yourself and bystanders away
from the plane of the rotating wheel.
The guard helps to protect operator from
broken wheel fragments and accidental
contact with wheel.
b) Use only bonded reinforced or
diamond cut-off wheels for your
power tool. Just because an accessory
can be attached to your power tool, it does
not assure safe operation.
C) The rated speed of the accessory
must be at least equal to the
maximum speed marked on the power
tool. Accessories running faster than their
rated speed can break and fly apart.
d) Wheels must be used only for
recommended applications. For
example: do not grind with the side
of cut-off wheel. Abrasive cut-off wheels
are intended for peripheral grinding, side
forces applied to these wheels may cause
them to shatter.
e) Always use undamaged wheel flanges
that are of correct diameter for your
selected wheel. Proper wheel flanges
support the wheel thus reducing the
possibility of wheel breakage.
f) Do not use worn down reinforced
wheels from larger power tools.
