• Make sure that the footplate is se-
cure during sawing. A tilted saw blade
may break or cause a kickback.
• After you have finished work, turn
the power tool off and do not pull
the sawblade out of the cut until it
has come to a standstill. In this way
you will avoid any kickback and can safely
put down the power tool.
• Use only undamaged sawblades in
perfect condition. Bent or blunt blades
can break, adversely affect the cut or cause
kickback.
• Do not brake the sawblade after
switching the device off by apply-
ing side pressure. The saw blade may
be damaged, break or cause a kickback.
• Use suitable detectors to determ-
ine if there are hidden supply lines
or contact the local utility company
for assistance. Contact with electric
cables can cause fire and electric shock.
Damaging gas lines can lead to explosion.
Breaking water pipes causes property dam-
age.
• Always wait until the power tool
has come to a complete stop be-
fore placing it down. The application
tool can jam and cause you to lose control
of the power tool.
