GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING: READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS. FAILURE TO FOLLOW ALL
INSTRUCTIONS LISTED BELOW MAY RESULT IN ELECTRIC SHOCK, FIRE AND/
OR SERIOUS INJURY. THE TERM “POWER TOOL” IN THE WARNINGS REFERS
TO YOUR SAW.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
WORK AREA SAFETY
a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite
accidents.
b. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
a. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any
way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power
tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric
shock.
b. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a
power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
d. Do not abuse the cable. Never use the cable for carrying, pulling or
unplugging the power tool. Keep cable away from heat, oil, sharp
edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cables increase the risk
of electric shock.
e. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cable suitable
for outdoor use. Use of a cable suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk
of electric shock.
f. If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a
residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces
the risk of electric shock.

PERSONAL SAFETY
a. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when
operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or
under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of
inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal
injury.
b. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection.
Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard
hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
c. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position
before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or
carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or
energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on.
A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool
may result in personal injury.
e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This
enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
f. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or
long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g. If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and
collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use
of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
a. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your
application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at
the rate for which it was designed.
b. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any
power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and
must be repaired.
c. Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack
from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
d. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the
power tool's operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power
tools.

e. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow
persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate
the tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools
with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with
these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the
work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different
from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
SERVICING
a. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only
identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
ADDITIONAL WARNINGS FOR CUT-OFF SAWS
1. IMPORTANT: You should not operate this machine unless you are thoroughly
familiar with metal cutting saws. If there is any doubt whatsoever, you
should consult a qualified person.
2. DO NOT operate the machine until it is completely assembled and this
entire manual has been read and understood.
3. Ensure the proper electrical regulations are followed.
4. Ensure the abrasive disc is securely mounted in accordance with these
instructions before connecting to a power supply.
5. DO NOT over tighten the abrasive disc. This can cause stress, and could
lead to the wheel shattering when under load.
6. Always check the abrasive disc for cracks before use.
7. Before switching the machine on, ALWAYS ensure the work is properly
secured. ALWAYS use the vice, NEVER hand hold a workpiece.
8. Make all adjustments with the power OFF.
9. When starting a cut, always ease the tool into the work. A harsh or sudden
impact could shatter the abrasive disc.
10. Ensure the abrasive disc reaches maximum speed before beginning a cut.
11. DO NOT use the machine with the guards removed.
12. Ensure you use the correct type of abrasive disc for the type of material
being cut. Metal cutting & masonry abrasive discs are available from your
Clarke dealer. NEVER cut magnesium, wood, or non-ferrous metals.
