▶
The switch-on interlock must always be engaged in the lock‒off position whenever you change
accessories or the battery, for transport and when you are going to stow the power tool away.
▶
While the power tool is running, do not touch the clamping flange or the clamping screw.
▶
Before you lay down the power tool, wait until the saw blade has come to a complete stop.
▶
Before changing the accessory tool, wait until the power tool has cooled down.
▶
Never actuate the drive spindle lock while the saw blade is rotating.
▶
Never direct the power tool toward persons.
▶
Always use a saw blade suitable for the material and the condition of the workpiece.
▶
Never install abrasive wheels of any kind whatsoever on this power tool.
▶
Bring the power tool into contact with the workpiece only when the power tool is switched on.
▶
Adapt forward pressure to the saw blade and the material being cut. In this way you prevent the
saw blade from stalling and possibly causing kickback.
▶
Avoid overheating the tips of the saw blade teeth.
▶
The rated speed of the accessory tool must be at least equal to the maximum speed marked on
the power tool. Accessories running faster than their rated speed can disintegrate and fly apart.
▶
Do not work in an environment heavily contaminated with dust.
▶
Dust produced by grinding, sanding, cutting and drilling can contain dangerous chemicals. Some
examples are: lead or lead-based paints; brick, concrete and other masonry products, natural
stone and other products containing silicates; certain types of wood, such as oak, beech and
chemically treated wood; asbestos or materials that contain asbestos. Determine the exposure of
the operator and bystanders by means of the hazard classification of the materials to be worked.
Implement the necessary measures to restrict exposure to a safe level, for example by the use of a
dust collection system or by the wearing of suitable respiratory protection. The general measures
for reducing exposure include:
▶
working in an area that is well ventilated,
▶
avoidance of prolonged contact with dust,
▶
directing dust away from the face and body,
▶
wearing protective clothing and washing exposed areas of the skin with water and soap.
▶
You and all others in the work area must always wear dust masks appropriate to the requirements
of the application.
▶
You and all others in the work area must wear suitable eye protection, hard hat, ear protection,
protective gloves and safety footwear while the power tool is in use.
▶
Before starting work, check the hazard class of the dust that will be produced when working. Use
an industrial vacuum cleaner with an officially approved protection classification in compliance
with locally applicable dust protection regulations.
▶
Comply with national health and safety requirements.
▶
Use clamps or some other practical means to secure the workpiece and keep it in a stable
position. Attempting to stabilize the workpiece by hand or with your body is inadequate and can
result in loss of control. Do not have the workpiece held in position by a helper.
▶
Never cut into unknown materials and keep the line of cut above and below the workpiece free of
obstacles. The power tool can kick back if the saw blade comes into contact with an obstructing
object.
▶
Risk of injury by falling tools and/or accessories. Before starting work, check that installed
accessories are secure.
▶
When sawing in combination with a dust extractor, avoid touching the dust hood or the suction
hose. When a material that produces dust in large quantities is worked, there can be an elevated
risk of electrostatic shock.
▶
Make sure that the path of the saw is free of obstructions such as nails, screws and other metal
objects.
