5. Safety information
m ATTENTION! The following basic safety measures
must be observed when using electric tools for protec-
tion against electric shock, and the risk of injury and
fire. Read all these notices before using the electric
tool and keep the safety instructions for later reference.
Safe work
1. Keep the work area orderly
- Disorder in the work area can lead to accidents.
2. Take environmental influences into account
- Do not expose electric tools to rain.
- Do not use electric tools in a damp or wet envi-
ronment.
- Make sure that the work area is well-illuminated.
- Do not use electric tools where there is a risk of
fire or explosion.
3. Protect yourself from electric shock
- Avoid physical contact with earthed parts (e.g.
pipes, radiators, electric ranges, cooling units).
4. Keep other people away
- Do not let other people — especially children —
touch the electric tool or its cable. Keep them
clear of the work area.
5. Securely store unused electric tools
- Unused electric tools should be stored in a dry,
elevated or closed location out of the reach of
children.
6. Do not overload your electric tool
- They work better and more safely in the specified
output range.
7. Use the correct electric tool
- Do not use low-output electric tools for heavy
work.
- Do not use the electric tool for purposes for
which it is not intended. For example, do not use
handheld circular saws for the cutting of branch-
es or logs.
- Do not use the electric tool to cut firewood.
8. Wear suitable clothing
- Do not wear wide clothing or jewellery, which can
become entangled in moving parts.
- When working outdoors, anti-slip footwear is
recommended.
- Tie long hair back in a hair net.
9. Use protective equipment
- Wear protective goggles.
- Wear a mask when carrying out dust-creating
work.
10. Connect the dust extraction device if you will be
processing wood, materials similar to wood, or
plastics.
- If connections for dust extraction and a collect-
ing device are present, make sure that they are
connected and used properly.
- When processing wood, materials similar to
wood, and plastics. Operation in enclosed spac-
es is only permitted with the use of a suitable
extraction system.
11. Do not use the cable for purposes for which it is
not intended
- Do not use the cable to pull the plug out of the
outlet. Protect the cable from heat, oil and sharp
edges.
12. Secure the workpiece
- Use the clamping devices or a vice to hold the
workpiece in place. In this manner, it is held
more securely than with your hand.
- An additional support is necessary for long work-
pieces (table, trestle, etc.) in order to prevent the
machine from tipping over.
- Always press the workpiece firmly against the
working plate and stop in order to prevent bounc-
ing and twisting of the workpiece.
13. Avoid abnormal posture
- Make sure that you have secure footing and al-
ways maintain your balance.
- Avoid awkward hand positions in which a sudden
slip could cause one or both hands to come into
contact with the saw blade.
14. Take care of your tools
- Keep cutting tools sharp and clean in order to be
able to work better and more safely.
- Follow the instructions for lubrication and for tool
replacement.
