4 Special Safety Instructions
For your own protection and for the

attention to all parts of the text that are
marked with this symbol!
a) DANGER: Keep hands away from
cutting area and the blade. Keep your
second hand on auxiliary handle, or motor
housing. If both hands are holding the saw, they
cannot be cut by the blade.
b) Do not reach underneath the workpiece. The
safety guard cannot protect you from the blade
below the workpiece.

the workpiece. Less than a full tooth of the blade
teeth should be visible below the workpiece.
d) Never hold piece being cut in your hands or
