•
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. 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
different from those intended could result in a hazardous
situation.
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 irritation or
burns.
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.
When servicing a power tool, use only identical
replacement parts. Follow instructions in the
Maintenance
section of this manual. Use of
unauthorized parts or failure to follow Maintenance
instructions
may create a risk of shock or injury.
A
DANGER:
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 the blade.
•
Do not reach underneath the workpiece. The
guard can not protect you from the blade below the
workpiece.
•
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.
•
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.
•
Hold power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces only,
when performing an operation where the cutting
tool may contact
hidden wiring. Contact with a "live"
wire will also make exposed metal parts of the power
tool "live" and shock the operator.
•
When ripping always use a rip fence or straight
edge guide. This improves the accuracy of cut and
reduces the chance of blade binding.
• 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.
•
Never use damaged
or incorrect
blade washers
or bolt. The blade washers and bolt were specially
designed for your saw, for optimum performance and
safety of operation.
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:
