removing the cut-off piece. Reaching with your hand
near the coasting blade is dangerous.
Hold the handle firmly when making an incomplete cut
u
or when releasing the switch before the saw head is
completely in the down position. The braking action of
the saw may cause the saw head to be suddenly pulled
downward, causing a risk of injury.
Do not let go of the handle once the saw head has
u
reached the lowest position. Always guide the saw
head back to the top position by hand. There is a risk of
injury if the saw head moves in an uncontrolled manner.
Keep your work area clean. Material mixtures are partic-
u
ularly hazardous. Light metal dust may catch fire or ex-
plode.
Do not use dull, cracked, bent or damaged saw blades.
u
Unsharpened or improperly set saw blades produce
narrow kerf causing excessive friction, blade binding
and kickback.
Do not use saw blades made from high speed steel
u
(HSS). Such saw blades can easily break.
Always use saw blades with correct size and shape
u
(diamond versus round) of arbour holes. Saw blades
that do not match the mounting hardware of the saw will
run off-centre, causing loss of control.
Never remove cuttings, wood chips, etc. from the cut-
u
ting area while the power tool is running. Always guide
the tool arm back to the neutral position first and then
switch the power tool off.
Do not touch the saw blade after working before it has
u
cooled. The saw blade becomes very hot while working.
