Safety instructions.

!
Risk of injury
Only set the power tool onto the work-
piece when it is switched on.
Only use saw blades that are sharp and
not damaged. Choose the saw blade and
stroke to suit the material to be cut.
The saw blade can become very hot dur-
ing the sawing process.
Provide for a secure stance; clamp the
material to be worked firmly.
Do not treat any materials that produce
any particles that are detrimental to health
(e. g. asbestos).
Never allow the hand or fingers to slip in
front of the saw blade while working.
While sawing, the shoe plate (7) must lie
flat over its entire surface.
Danger of kick-back! After finishing work,
switch off the power tool and wait for the
saw blade to come to a standstill before
removing it from the cut.
Do not rivet or screw any name-plates or
signs onto the power tool. The protective
insulation can thereby be rendered inef-
fective. Adhesive labels are recom-
mended.
Only use an undamaged plug and cable.
