kickback forces. Position your body to
either side of the blade, but not in line with
the blade. Kickback could cause the saw to
jump backwards, but kickback forces can be
controlled by the operator, if proper precautions
are taken.
b) When blade is binding, or when interrupting
a cut for any reason, release the trigger and
hold the saw motionless in the material until
the blade comes to a complete stop. Never
attempt to remove the saw from the work
or pull the saw backward while the blade is
in motion or kickback may occur. Investigate
and take corrective actions to eliminate the
cause of blade binding.
c) When restarting a saw in the workpiece,
centre the saw blade in the kerf so that the
saw teeth are not engaged into the material.
If saw blade binds, it may walk up or kickback
from the workpiece as the saw is restarted.
d) Support large panels to minimise the risk of
blade pinching and kickback. Large panels
tend to sag under their own weight. Supports
must be placed under the panel on both sides,
near the line of cut and near the edge of the
panel.
e) Do not use dull or damaged blades.
Unsharpened or improperly set blades produce
narrow kerf causing excessive friction, blade
binding and kickback.
f) Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking
levers must be tight and secure before
making cut. If blade adjustment shifts while
cutting, it may cause binding and kickback.
g) Use extra caution when sawing into existing
walls or other blind areas. The protruding
blade may cut objects that can cause kickback.
Safety Instructions for Saws with a
Pendulum Blade Guard
a) Check the lower guard for proper closing
before each use. Do not operate the saw if
the lower guard does not move freely and
close instantly. Never clamp or tie the lower
guard into the open position. If the saw is
accidentally dropped, the lower guard may be
bent. Raise the lower guard with the retracting
handle and make sure it moves freely and does
not touch the blade or any other part, in all
angles and depths of cut.
b) Check the operation of the lower guard
spring. If the guard and the spring are not
operating properly, they must be serviced
before use. Lower guard may operate
56
sluggishly due to damaged parts, gummy
deposits, or a build-up of debris.
c) The lower guard should be retracted
manually only for special cuts such as
"plunge cuts" and "compound cuts". Raise
the lower guard by retracting handle and as
soon as blade enters the material, the lower
guard must be released. For all other sawing,
the lower guard should operate automatically.
d) Always observe that the lower guard is
covering the blade before placing the saw
down on bench or floor. An unprotected,
coasting blade will cause the saw to walk
backwards, cutting whatever is in its path. Be
aware of the time it takes for the blade to stop
after switch is released.
Additional Safety Instructions for
Circular Saws
• Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can
cause hearing loss.
• Wear a dust mask. Exposure to dust particles
can cause breathing difficulty and possible
injury.
• Do not use blades of larger or smaller
diameter than recommended. For the proper
blade rating refer to the Technical Data.
Use only the blades specified in this manual,
complying with EN 847-1.
• Never use abrasive cut-off wheels.
• Do not use water feed attachments.
• Use clamps or another practical way to
secure and support the workpiece to a
stable platform. Holding the work by hand or
against your body leaves it unstable and may
lead to loss of control.

Residual Risks

In spite of the application of the relevant safety
regulations and the implementation of safety
devices, certain residual risks cannot be avoided.
These are:
– Impairment of hearing.
– Risk of personal injury due to flying particles.
– Risk of burns due to accessories becoming hot
during operation.
– Risk of personal injury due to prolonged use.
