Intended use
The tool is intended for performing lengthways and
crossways straight cuts and mitre cuts with angles in
wood while in firm contact with the workpiece.
Power supply
The tool should be connected only to a power supply of
the same voltage as indicated on the nameplate, and can
only be operated on single-phase AC supply. They are
double-insulated and can, therefore, also be used from
sockets without earth wire.
For public low-voltage distribution systems of
between 220 V and 250 V.
Switching operations of electric apparatus cause voltage
fluctuations. The operation of this device under
unfavorable mains conditions can have adverse effects to
the operation of other equipment. With a mains
impedance equal or less than 0.37 Ohms it can be
presumed that there will be no negative effects. The
mains socket used for this device must be protected with
a fuse or protective circuit breaker having slow tripping
characteristics.

CIRCULAR SAW SAFETY
ENF002-2
WARNINGS

Cutting procedures

1. 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.
ENF100-1
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.
A typical illustration of proper hand support,
workpiece support, and supply cord routing (if
GEA010-1
applicable). (Fig. 1)
5. Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces
only, 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 could give the
operator an electric shock.
