**** General safety instructions for power tools

WARNING Read all warnings and instructions. Failure to apply all warnings and instructions can lead to electrical shock, fire and/or serious injury.
• Keep all warnings and instructions handy for future consultation.
• The term “power tool” used in the warnings refers to power tools that are connected to a source of electrical energy (with an electrical cable)

  1. Workplace safety
    a) Keep your working area clean and well-lit. Cluttered or dimly lit workspaces can lead to accidents. b) Do not operate power tools in areas where explosions could take place, or in which flammable liquids, gases, or dust are present. Power tools can create sparks, which can cause dust or fumes to ignite. c) Keep children and bystanders away from the power tool when it is being used. Distractions could cause you to lose control over the equipment.

  2. Electrical safety
    a) The terminal plug of the tool must fit into the outlet. The plug may not be modified in any way. Do not use an adaptor plug together with grounded power tools. The original plugs and the appropriate outlets reduce the risk of an electrical shock. b) Avoid contact with grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, stoves, and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electrical shock if your body is grounded. c) Keep power tools away from rain or wet conditions. Penetration of water into the power tool increases the risk of electrical shock. d) Do not use the cable for any purpose other than that for which it was made. Do not use it to carry the tool, hang it up, or pull the plug out of the outlet. Keep the cable away from heat, oil, sharp corners, or parts of the equipment that move. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electrical shock. e) When operating the power tool outdoors, only use extension cords that are suitable for outdoor use. The use of an appropriate extension cord reduces the risk of an electrical shock. f) If the power tool must be used in a damp environment, use a residual current protective device. The use of such a device reduces the risk of electrical shock.

  3. Personal safety
    a) Be attentive, watch what you are doing, and use the power tool sensibly. Do not use power tools when you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medici-
    nes. One moment of inattention while using a power tool can result in serious injury. b) Wear personal protective equipment and always wear protective glasses. Wearing personal protective equipment, such as a dust mask, slip-free safety shoes, protective headwear or ear protection, depending on the type and use of a power tool reduces the risk of injury. c) Avoid unintentional start- ups. Make sure that the power tool is shut off before it is connected to the power supply, or is carried. If you have your finger on the switch of the tool while carrying it, or have the tool turned on, or connected to a power supply, this behavior can lead to accidents. d) Remove the adjustment aides or the spanners before turning on the power tool. A tool or wrench that is located in a rotating part of the machine, can lead to injuries. e) Avoid abnormal posture. Make sure that the operator is standing firmly and can maintain balance. This allows the operator to maintain control over the power tool in unexpected situations. f) Wear appropriate clothing. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep hair, clothing and gloves away from the moving parts. Loose clothing, jewelry or long hair can get caught in the moving parts. g) If dust vacuums or catching systems can be installed on the tool, make sure that these are correctly connected and assembled. The use of a dust exhaust unit can reduce hazards caused by dust.

  4. Use and treatment of the power tool
    a) Do not overtax the tool. Use the appropriate tool for the work that is to be done. With the correct power tool, you can work better and more safely. b) Do not use a power tool where the switch is defective. A power tool that cannot be turned on and off is dangerous and must be repaired. c) Disconnect the plug from the wall outlet before you make adjustments to the tool, change parts or put the tool away. This precaution prevents inadvertent startups of the tool. d) Store power tools that are not in use out of reach of children. Do not let anyone use the tool who does not have experience with it, or who has not read these instructions. Power tools can be dangerous when they are used by inexperienced people. e) Take good care of your power tools. Make sure that movable parts function properly and do not jam, see that parts that influence the use of the machine are not broken or damaged. Repair damaged parts before operating the tool. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools. f) Keep cutting edges sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges jam less often and are easier to control. g) Use power tools, accessories, and equipment according to these instructions. Taking into account the working conditions and the work being performed. The use of power tools other than those intended for the tool itself can lead to dangerous situations.

  5. Service
    a) Only let qualified service personnel repair your tool and always use original replacement parts. This guarantees that the power tool remains safe to use.

**** Safety instructions for all saws

a) DANGER: Do not put your hands in the sawing area or on the saw blade. Keep your second hand on the extra handle of the motor housing. If both hands are holding the saw, neither can be injured by the saw blade. b) Do not put your hands under the work piece. The protective cap cannot protect your hands from the blade when they are under the work piece. c) Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of the work piece. Less than one complete sawing tooth should be visible under the work piece. d) Never hold the work piece that is to be sawn in your hand or over your leg. Make sure that the work piece has a stable balance. It is important that the workpiece is held securely, in order to minimize the danger of contact of a body part with the saw, loss of control over the saw, or jamming of the blade. e) Hold the equipment on the insulated handles, when you undertake work in which the tool being used could come into contact with hidden electrical wires, or its own cable. Contact with a live power source can electrify the metal parts of the tool and lead to an electrical shock. f) When making a long cut, always use a stop chock or a straightedge. This improves the accuracy of the cut and reduces the chance that the saw blade jams. g) Always use the correct size of saw blades and make sure they have the right locating bore (e.g. Star shaped or round). Saw blades that do not fit the assembly of the saw do not run correctly and cause loss of control. h) Never use damaged or incorrect saw blade shims or screws. The saw blade shims and screws are designed especially for your saw, for optimal performance and operating safety.

**** Additional safety instructions for all saws

Causes and prevention of kickbacks:

  • A kickback is a sudden reaction due to a caught, jammed or incorrectly adjusted saw blade, which leads to the saw rearing up in an uncontrolled manner and moving out of the workpiece toward the operator.
  • If a saw blade catches or jams in the sawing edge that closes behind it, it is blocked and the motor’s drive pushes the saw back in the direction of the operator.
  • If the saw blade twists in the saw groove or is incorrectly positioned, the teeth at the rear side of the saw blade edge caught in the surface of the workpiece. The saw then moves out of the saw groove and springs back in the direction of the operator.
  • A kickback results from an incorrect or faulty use of the saw. It can be prevented, as will be described in the following, by appropriate cautionary measures.

a) Hold onto the saw with both hands and position your arms so that they can absorb any energy from a kickback. Always keep to the side of the saw blade, and never bring it into line with your body. In the case of a kickback, the circular saw can jump backwards, but with adequate caution the operator can deal with the energy of the kickback. b) If the saw blade jams or you want to interrupt your work, then turn the saw off and keep the work piece still until the saw blade comes to a full stop. Never try to remove the saw from the work piece or pull it out when the saw blade is moving since then a kickback can occur. Find out the cause of the jam and remove it. c) If you want to start up a saw that is in the work piece, centre the saw blade in the sawed groove and check that the saw blade teeth are not caught in the work piece. If the saw blade is jammed, it can jump out of the work piece or cause a kick back when it is started up. d) Support larger work pieces in order to reduce the risk of a kickback due to a saw blade jam. The weight of larger work pieces can cause them to bend. Large pieces must be supported on both sides, both near the sawing slot as well as on the edges. e) Do not use dull or damaged saw blades. Saw blades with dull or misaligned teeth increase the friction, in the sawing slot, cause saw blade jams and kickbacks. f) Before you start sawing, tighten the adjustments for the cut depth and angles. If you change settings while sawing, the saw blade can jam and a kickback is the result. g) Be particularly careful when making “inserted cuts” in walls that already exist or other areas where you cannot see what is behind the surface. When the saw blade is inserted into the wall it can be blocked by hidden objects and cause a kickback.

Safety instructions for inserted circular saw use

a) Each time before you use the saw, make sure that the protective covering closes. Do not use the saw if the protective covering cannot move freely and does not close immediately. Never clip or tie the protective covering in an opened position. If the saw should accidentally fall to the ground, the protective covering can get bent. Make sure that the protective covering can move freely and does not touch the saw blade or other parts in all cutting positions. b) Check the condition and function of the spring for the protective covering. Have the saw been repaired before use if the protective covering and spring do not work perfectly? Damaged parts, sticky residuals or piles of saw dust can interfere with the working of the lower protective cover. c) When making an “inserted cut” that does not describe a right angle, make sure that the saw is guarded against slipping to the side. Slippage can lead to a saw blade jam and a kickback. d) Do not put the saw on the workbench or the floor without making sure that the protective cover is over the saw blade. An unprotected, running saw blade can move the saw against the cutting direction and see what is in the way. Check the delay time of the saw.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL SAWS

  • Do not use a sanding belt.
  • Make sure that the dust-catching mechanism is correctly installed, as described in this manual.
  • Wear breathing protection.
  • Only those saw blades recommended in the manual should be used.
  • Always wear ear protection.
  • Replace the saw blades as described in this manual.
  • The maximum cut depth is 45 mm.

If the electrical cable of this tool is damaged it must be replaced by the manufacturer or the customer service department or a similarly qualified specialist in order to avoid dangers.

FURTHER SPECIAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR CIRCULAR SAWS
a) Only use the recommended saw blades which correspond to EN 847-1.
b) Do not use sanding belts.
c) Only use the manufacturer’s original saw blades with the number Ø 145 mm, 5500/min, 145 x 20 x 2.4. Do not use any saw blades which do not correspond to the characteristics described in these operating instructions. Saw blades may not be brought to a stop by pressure on the machine from the side. Make sure that the saw blade is tightly assembled and turns in the correct direction.

**** Special Safety Instructions

ACCESSORIES
Guide System
2 Piece Guide Rail 700 mm
1 Piece Rail Joiner
ACCESSORY PACKAGE (IT IS NOT A STANDARD PART OF DELIVERY):
2 Pieces Screw Clamps
1 Piece Rebound Protection (Fence)

Guide Device (Fig. 10, 11)
The guide rails (A) enable clean, precise cuts and protect the surfaces from damage.
When sawing with the guide rail, the cut depth is 4.5 mm less than the scale value on the machine. For safety, the guide rail can be secured with screw clamps (B). The rebound protection (D) ensures safe guiding during plunging into the workpiece. By means of the rail joiner (F), 2 guide rails can be connected and allow long, precise cuts The guide clearance of the assembly on the guide rail can be regulated with the two adjustment screws (E). With the offered accessories, miter cuts, corner cuts, and other fitting tasks can be carried out.
When first using this saw on the optional guide rail, it will need to be adjusted to slide with minimal side movement on the guide rail, Adjustable cams (Fig 10 “E”) are fitted to do this.

  1. Place saw on the guide rail.
  2. Turn cams (Fig 10 “E”) anti-clockwise until tight. Then clockwise slightly to allow clearance. While holding dials in position lock in place by screwing down the Socket head Cap screws in the middle of each Cam (5mm Allen key supplied with machine)
  3. Pull the saw back and forth along the rail ensuring it slides smoothly Re-adjust as needed.
  4. Future adjustments may be needed depending on the use of the saw.

Caution!
Always secure the workpiece in such a way that it cannot shift.
Always move the machine forward; never pull it toward the body.

TO SAW:

  1. Set the saw on the guide rail.
  2. Switch on the machine.
  3. Press the saw slowly down to the set cut depth and move this evenly forward along the rail.

PLUNGE CUTS:
To Saw:

  1. Set the saw on the guide rail at the marked cutting point
  2. Secure the rebound protection or fence (accessory not included) at the back and front cut points on the guide rail.
  3. Switch on the machine.
  4. Press the saw down slowly to the set cut depth and move this forward evenly on the rail up to the front cutting point.

MITRE CUTS:
For miter cuts, you should turn the two adjustment screws (E) a half a turn to the right after placing the saw. This helps avoid any unintentional tilting of the saw in the slanted position. Only tighten the adjustment screws (E) to the point where the saw can still be pushed along the rails. This will help you avoid injury to the operator or damage to the machine.
