Battery Tool Use And Care; Service; Specific Safety Instructions For Circular Saws - Meec tools 012595 Instructions D'utilisation

● Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on
and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the
switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
● Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or
remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the power
tool before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.
● Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do
not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
● Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts and any other condition that may affect the power
tool´s operation. If damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
● Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained
cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to
bind and are easier to control.
● Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in
accordance with these instructions, taking into account
the working conditions and the work to be performed.
Use of the power tool for operations differ-ent from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
● Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free
from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping
surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the
tool in unexpected situations.

2.7 Battery tool use and care

● Recharge only with the charger specified by the
manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of
battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with
another battery pack.
● Use power tools only with specifically designated battery
packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of
injury and fire.
● When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other
metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws
or other small metal objects, that can make a connection
from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery
terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
● Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the
battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs,
flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek
medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause
irritations or burns.
28
● Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or
modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit
unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire, explosion or risk
of injury.
● Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive
temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above 130
°C may cause explosion.
● Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the
battery pack or tool outside the temperature range
specified in the instructions. Charging improperly or at
temperatures outside the specified range may damage
the battery and increase the risk of fire.

2.8 Service

● Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts. This will
ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
● Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery
packs should only be performed by the manufacturer or
authorized service providers.
2.9 Specific safety instructions for
circular saws
● Keep your hands away from the cutting area and the
cutting blade. Hold one hand on the main handle and the
other hand on the front handle.
● Keep all body parts away from below the workpiece.
There is no protection from the blade guard below the
work piece.
● Do not hold the workpiece with your hands or across
your legs. Attach the workpiece to a stable surface. If the
workpiece is not correctly held, the cutting blade can
catch in the workpiece and cause injury.
● Hold the power tool by the insulated gripping surfaces
only, when performing an operation where the cutting
blade may come into contact with hidden wiring. Contact
with a live wire will cause the metal parts of the power
tool to become live and can give the operator an electric
shock.
● Always use the parallel guide to get a straight cut. This
reduces the risk that the cutting blade catches in the cut.
● Always use cutting blades with the correct dimension
and center hole shape.
● Always use sharp cutting blades without defects or
damages.
● Do not use defective washers or screws together with the
cutting blade.
