19. Stay alert.
Watch what you are doing. Use common sense.
Do not operate tool when you are tired.
20. Check damaged parts.
Before further use of the tool, a guard or other part
that is damaged should be carefully checked to
determine that it will operate properly and perform
its intended function. Check for alignment of
moving parts, free running of moving parts,
breakage of parts, mounting and any other
conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or
other part that is damaged should be properly
repaired or replaced by an authorized service
center
unless
instruction manual. Have defective switches
replaced by an authorized service facility. Do not
use the tool if the switch does not turn it on and
off.
21. Warning.
The use of any accessory or attachment, other
than those recommended in this instruction
manual or the catalog, may present a risk of
personal injury.
22. Have your tool repaired by a qualified person.
This electric tool is in accordance with the relevant
safety requirements. Repairs should only be
carried out by qualified persons using original
spare parts, otherwise this may result in
considerable danger to the user.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES
FOR TOOL
Danger:
1.
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 blade.
2.
Do not reach underneath the workpiece. The
guard cannot protect you from the blade below the
workpiece.
3.
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.
4.
Never hold piece being cut in your hands or
across your leg. Secure the workpiece to a
stable platform. It is important to support the
work properly to minimize body exposure, blade
binding, or loss of control.

5.
Hold
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 shock the operator.
6.
When ripping always use a rip fence or
straight edge guide. This improves the accuracy
of cut and reduces the chance for blade binding.
7.
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 eccentrically, causing loss of
control.
8.
Never

washers or bolts. The blade washers and bolt
were specially designed for your saw, for optimum
performance and safety of operation.
9.
Causes and operator prevention of kickback;
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched, bound
•
or misaligned saw blade, causing an uncontrolled
saw to lift up and out of the workpiece toward the
operator.
When the blade is pinched or bound tightly by the
•
kerf closing down, the blade stalls and the motor
reaction drives the unit rapidly back toward the
operator.
if the blade becomes twisted or misaligned in the
•
cut, the teeth at the back edge of the blade can dig
into the top surface of the wood causing the blade
to climb out of the kerf and jump back toward the
operator.
Kickback is the result of saw misuse and/or incorrect
operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided
by taking proper precautions as given below.

Maintain a firm grip with both hands on
