Do not open the rechargeable battery pack and
•
charging unit!
Protect the charging unit from metal parts (e.g.
•
metal chips) or liquids!
• Do not use mains power units or external battery
packs to operate the battery­powered electrical
tool. Do not use external charging units to charge
the rechargeable battery pack. The use of acces-
sories that are not intended by the manufacturer
can lead to electric shocks and/or serious acci-
dents.
Protect rechargeable battery pack against heat >
•
50 °C, e.g. also from lasting solar radiation and
fire!
Never extinguish Li­ion battery packs with water!
•
Use sand or a fire blanket.
• Protect the device from moisture.
Protect the cable from heat, oil and sharp edges.
•
Regularly check the plug and cable to avoid any
•
danger. In the event of damage, have these replaced
by an authorised customer service workshop.
Machine-specific safety instructions for hand-
held circular saws
Sawing method
m DANGER! Do not place your hands in the
•
sawing area or on the saw blade. Hold the ad-
ditional handle or the motor housing with your
second hand. If both hands hold the circular saw,
the saw blade cannot injure them.
Do not reach beneath the workpiece. The pro-
•
tective hood cannot protect you from the saw blade
beneath the workpiece.
Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of the
•
workpiece. Less than one full tooth height should
be visible beneath the workpiece.
Never hold the workpiece that is to be sawn in
•
the hand or over the leg. Secure the workpiece
on a stable support. It is important to fasten the
workpiece well, in order to minimise any risk of
physical contact, jamming of the saw blade or loss
of control.
When performing work during which the elec-
•
trical tool can meet with concealed power
lines, take hold of the electrical tool by the in-
sulated handle surfaces. Contact with a live ca-
ble will also energise the metal parts of the electri-
cal tool and will lead to an electric shock.
When performing a longitudinal cut always use
•
a stop or a straight edge guide. This improves
the cutting accuracy and reduces the possibility of
the saw blade jamming.
