CIRCULAR SAW SAFETY WARNINGS

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.

CUTTING PROCEDURES:

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 the 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 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.
