workpiece or pull the saw back while the blade is in motion, as otherwise
the saw could kick back.
▶ When restarting a saw in the workpiece, center the saw blade in the kerf
and check that saw teeth are not in engagement with the workpiece.
▶ Use extra caution when sawing into walls or other blind areas. As it enters
the material the blade might encounter a hidden obstruction, resulting in
kickback.
Electrical safety
▶ Before beginning work, check the working area for concealed electric
cables or gas and water pipes. External metal parts of the power tool
can become live, presenting a risk of electric shock, if you accidentally
damage an electric cable.
▶ Hold the power tool by the insulated gripping surfaces when performing
work in which the accessory tool might come into contact with concealed
wiring. If the accessory tool comes into contact with a live wire, metal
parts of the power tool can also become live, resulting in an electric
shock.
Power tool use and care
▶ Do not use dull or damaged blades. These cause increased friction and
present a high risk of the saw blade binding or kicking back.
▶ Comply with the manufacturer's instructions for handling and storing saw
blades.
▶ The product must be pressed against the workpiece until the contact
shoe makes firm contact. This ensures optimum and safe progress as
you work.
▶ Wear suitable protective clothing as protection against hot particles of
material.
2.4 Additional safety instructions
▶ Use the product only when it is in perfect working order.
▶ Never tamper with or modify the power tool in any way.
▶ Do not use dull or damaged blades. These cause increased friction and
present a high risk of the saw blade binding or kicking back.
▶ Before beginning work, check the working area for concealed electric
cables or gas and water pipes. External metal parts of the power tool
can become live, presenting a risk of electric shock, if you accidentally
damage an electric cable.
▶ Secure the workpiece in a sturdy holder. Never hold the workpiece with
your hand or across your leg.
▶ Switch the product on only after bringing it to the working position.
▶ When working with the power tool, always guide it away from your body.
▶ Apply only moderate pressure and cut at an appropriate speed, especially
when cutting large-diameter pipes. This will help to prevent the power
tool overheating.
