riods of time or if the unit is not held or
maintained properly.
Warning! During operation, this
electric tool generates an electro-
magnetic field which, under certain
circumstances, may impair the func-
tionality of active or passive medical
implants. To reduce the risk of seri-
ous or lethal injuries, we recommend
that persons with medical implants
consult their doctor and the manu-
facturer of their medical implant
before operating the machine.
Observe the safety informa-
tion and notes on charging
and proper use as shown in
the instruction manual for
your battery and charger
from the X 12 V Team series.
A detailed description of the
charging process and further
information can be found in
the separate operating instruc-
tions.

instructions for circular hand
saws
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL SAWS,
SAWING METHOD
a) DANGER! Do not put your
hands in the cutting area or on
the saw blade. If you hold the saw with
both hands, they cannot be injured by
the saw blade.
b) Do not reach underneath the
workpiece. The protective hood cannot
protect you from the saw blade under
the workpiece.

c) Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness
of the workpiece. Less than one full
tooth height should be visible below
the workpiece.
d) Never hold the workpiece you want
to saw in your hands or over your
leg. Secure the workpiece in a sturdy
support. It is important to fasten the
workpiece securely to minimise the
risk of physical contact, the saw blade
jamming and loss of control.
e) Hold the electric tool by the insulated
gripping surfaces when performing
work in which the cutting tool may
come into contact with hidden wiring.
Contact with a live wire also causes
a charge in metal parts of the electric
tool and results in an electric shock.
f) When performing longitudinal cuts,
always use a stop or a straight edge
guide. This improves the cutting
precision while minimising the
possibility of the saw blade jamming.
g) Always use the right size saw blades
with the appropriate locating holes
(e.g. diamond or round). Saw blades
that do not fit in the saw fitting parts
run unevenly and lead to a loss of
control.
h) Never use damaged or incorrect
saw blade washers or screws. The
saw blade washers and screws were
designed specifically for your saw
to ensure optimal performance and
dependability.
