• Always wear gloves when handling saw blades and rough material. Saw blades
shall be carried in a holder whenever practicable.
• Fully unwind cable drum extension to avoid potential overheating.
• When an extension cable is required you must ensure it has the correct ampere
rating for your power tool and is in a safe electrical condition.
• Ensure your mains supply voltage is the same as indicated on the rating plate.
• Your circular saw is a hand held tool, do not clamp your circular saw.
• Before cutting, check the cutting line is free of nails, screws, etc.
• Do not cut small workpieces with a circular saw. If possible, use a jigsaw.
• Only make cuts with the blade direction downwards, never upwards or at the
side.
• Do not use a blade unless the rated blade speed exceeds the saw no load
speed.
• Never remove the guard system. Never use the saw if the guard system does
not function correctly. Never lock the moving guard open. The guard must
move freely.
• Always check walls, floors and ceilings to avoid hidden power cable and pipes.
• After long working periods external metal parts and accessories could be hot.
• Do not cut material containing asbestos.
• Do not use metal or stone saw blades. Only use wood saw blades.
• Do not use circular saw to cut tree limbs or logs.
• Do not use any abrasive wheels.
• Use only blade diameter(s) in accordance with the markings.
How to avoid kickback and protect yourself from possible injury:
• Keep the saw blade teeth sharp and the blade free of rust and pitch.
• Maintain the rip fence parallel to the saw blade.
• Do not rip a workpiece that is twisted or warped or does not have a straight
edge to guide along the rip fence.
• Push the workpiece through and past the saw blade prior to release.
• Never saw a large workpiece that cannot be controlled.
• Never using the fence as a guide when crosscutting.
• When ripping, apply the feed force to the section of the workpiece between the
sawblade and the rip fence.
• Keep saw blade guard, splitter and kickback pawls in place and operating
properly.
• Do not use miter gauge and rip fence together in cutting operation. A
misaligned fence, miter gauge or those two devices used together could cause
the workpiece to become like a wedge and bind the spinning blade.
