Additional power tool safety warnings
Warning! Additional safety warnings for
hand-held saws
Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces when
u
performing an operation where the cutting accessory
may contact hidden wiring. Cutting accessory contacting
a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the power
tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when
u
performing an operation where the fastener may
contact hidden wiring. Fasteners contacting a "live" wire
may make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live"
and could give the operator an electric shock.
Use clamps or another practical way to secure and
u
support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the
work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and
may lead to loss of control.
Keep hands away from cutting area. ever reach under-
u
neath the work piece any reason. Do not insert fingers or
thumb into the vicinity of the reciprocating blade and blade
clamp. Do not stabilize the saw by gripping the shoe.
Keep blades sharp. Dull or damaged blades may cause
u
the saw to swerve or stall under pressure. Always use the
appropriate type of saw blade for the workpiece material
and type of cut.
When cutting pipe or conduit, make sure that they are
u
free from water, electrical wiring, etc.
Do not touch the workpiece or the blade immediately
u
after operating the tool. They can become very hot.
Be aware of hidden hazards, before cutting into walls,
u
floors or ceilings, check for the location of wiring and
pipes.
The blade will continue to move after releasing the
u
switch. Always switch the tool off and wait for the saw
blade to come to a complete standstill before putting the
tool down.
Warning! The vibration emission value during actual use of
the power tool can differ from the declared value depending
(Original instructions)
on the ways in which the tool is used. The vibration level may
increase above the level stated.
The intended use is described in this instruction manual.
u
The use of any accessory or attachment or performance
of any operation with this tool other than those
recommended in this instruction manual may present a
risk of personal injury and/or damage to property.
Safety of others
Never allow children, persons with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge or
people unfamiliar with these instructions to use the machine,
local regulations may restrict the age of the operator.

Residual risks

Additional residual risks may arise when using the tool which
may not be included in the enclosed safety warnings. These
risks can arise from misuse, prolonged use etc.
Even with the application of the relevant safety regulations
and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual
risks can not be avoided. These include:
Injuries caused by touching any rotating/moving parts.
u
Injuries caused when changing any parts, blades or ac-
u
cessories.
Injuries caused by prolonged use of a tool. When using
u
any tool for prolonged periods ensure you take regular
breaks.
Impairment of hearing.
u
Health hazards caused by breathing dust developed when
u
using your tool (example:- working with wood, especially
oak, beech and MDF.)
Vibration
The declared vibration emission values stated in the technical
data and the declaration of conformity have been meas-
ured in accordance with a standard test method provided
by EN62841and may be used for comparing one tool with
another. The declared vibration emission value may also be
used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
Warning!
The vibration emission value during actual use of
the power tool can differ from the declared value depending
on the ways in which the tool is used. The vibration level may
increase above the level stated.
When assessing vibration exposure to determine safety
measures required by 2002/44/EC to protect persons regularly
using power tools in employment, an estimation of vibration
exposure should consider, the actual conditions of use and the
way the tool is used, including taking account of all parts of the
operating cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off
and when it is running idle in addition to the trigger time.
