make sure it moves freely and does not touch the blade or any
other part, in all angles and depths of cut.
Lower guard function
Check the operation of the lower guard spring. If the guard
and the spring are not operating properly, they must be
serviced before use. Lower guard may operate sluggishly due
to damaged parts, gummy deposits, or a build-up of debris.
Lower guard may be retracted manually only for special
cuts such as “plunge cuts” and “compound cuts.” Raise
lower guard by retracting handle and as soon as blade
enters the material, the lower guard must be released. For all
other sawing, the lower guard should operate automatically.
Always observe that the lower guard is covering the blade
before placing saw down on bench or floor. An unprotected,
coasting blade will cause the saw to walk backwards, cutting
whatever is in its path. Be aware of the time it takes for the blade
to stop after switch is released.
Do not use saw blades not corresponding to the key data given
in these instructions for use.
Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
Please do not use abrasion disks in this machine!
Appliances used at many different locations including open air
must be connected via a current surge preventing switch.
Always wear goggles when using the machine. It is
recommended to wear gloves, sturdy non slipping shoes and
apron.
Always disconnect the plug from the socket before carrying out
any work on the machine.
Only plug-in when machine is switched off.
Keep mains lead clear from working range of the machine.
Always lead the cable away behind you.
Before use check machine, cable, and plug for any damages or
material fatigue. Repairs should only be carried out by
authorised Service Agents.
Do not fix the on/off switch in the “on” position when using the
saw hand-held.
The dust produced when using this tool may be harmful to
health. Do not inhale the dust. Wear a suitable dust protection
mask.
Adapt the feed speed to avoid overheating the blade tips and to
avoid melting plastic materials during cutting.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Cutting procederes
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 cannot
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 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.
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.
Kickback causes and related warnings:
- 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 the saw and
position your arms to resist kickback forces. Position your
body to either side of the blade, but not in line with the
blade. Kickback could cause the saw to jump backwards, but
kickback forces can be controlled by the operator, if proper
precautions are taken.
When blade is binding, or when interrupting a cut for any
reason, release the trigger and hold the saw motionless in
the material until the blade comes to a complete stop. Never
attempt to remove the saw from the work or pull the saw
backward while the blade is in motion or kickback may
occur. Investigate and take corrective actions to eliminate the
cause of blade binding.
When restarting a saw in the workpiece, centre the saw
blade in the kerf and check that saw teeth are not engaged
into the material. If saw blade is binding, it may walk up or
kickback from the workpiece as the saw is restarted.
Support large panels to minimise the risk of blade pinching
and kickback. Large panels tend to sag under their own weight.
Supports must be placed under the panel on both sides, near the
line of cut and near the edge of the panel.
Do not use dull or damaged blades. Unsharpened or
improperly set blades produce narrow kerf causing excessive
friction, blade binding and kickback.
Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking levers must be
tight and secure before making cut. If blade adjustment shifts
while cutting, it may cause binding and kickback.
Use extra caution when sawing into existing walls or other
blind areas. The protruding blade may cut objects that can
cause kickback.
Check lower guard for proper closing before each use. Do
not operate the saw if lower guard does not move freely and
close instantly. Never clamp or tie the lower guard into the
open position. If saw is accidentally dropped, lower guard may
be bent. Raise the lower guard with the retracting handle and
WARNING
The vibration emission level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance with a standardised test given in
EN 60745 and may be used to compare one tool with another. It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure.
The declared vibration emission level represents the main applications of the tool. However if the tool is used for different applications,
with different accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration emission may differ. This may significantly increase the exposure level over
the total working period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also take into account the times when the tool is switched off or when it is
running but not actually doing the job. This may significantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the accessories,
keep the hands warm, organisation of work patterns.
