▶ Do not reach underneath the workpiece.
▶ Never hold the workpiece with your hand or across your leg. Secure the
workpiece in a sturdy holder.
▶ Always hold the power tool firmly with both hands on the handles provided
for the purpose and position your arms to absorb kickback forces.
▶ Keep the grips clean and dry.
▶ Position yourself off to one side of the blade, never bring the blade into
line with your body. The saw can jump backward toward you if kickback
occurs.
▶ If the saw blade binds or when you interrupt work for any reason, switch
off the saw and hold it motionless in the material until the saw blade
comes to a complete stop. Never attempt to remove the saw from the
workpiece or pull the saw back while the blade is in motion, as otherwise
the saw could kick back.
▶ When restarting a saw in the workpiece, center the saw blade in the kerf
and check that saw teeth are not in engagement with the workpiece.
▶ Use extra caution when sawing into walls or other blind areas. As it enters
the material the blade might encounter a hidden obstruction, resulting in
kickback.
Electrical safety
▶ Before beginning work, check the working area for concealed electric
cables or gas and water pipes. External metal parts of the power tool
can become live, presenting a risk of electric shock, if you accidentally
damage an electric cable.
▶ Hold the power tool by the insulated gripping surfaces when performing
work in which the accessory tool might come into contact with concealed
wiring. If the accessory tool comes into contact with a live wire, metal
parts of the power tool can also become live, resulting in an electric
shock.
Power tool use and care
▶ Do not use dull or damaged blades. These cause increased friction and
present a high risk of the saw blade binding or kicking back.
▶
Comply with the manufacturer's instructions for handling and storing saw
blades.
▶ The product must be pressed against the workpiece until the contact
shoe makes firm contact. This ensures optimum and safe progress as
you work.
▶ Wear suitable protective clothing as protection against hot particles of
material.
2.4 Additional safety instructions
▶ Use the product only when it is in perfect working order.
▶ Never tamper with or modify the power tool in any way.
