5. General safety information

Attention! The following basic safety measures must be ob­served when using electric tools for protection against electric
shock, and the risk of injury and fire. Read all these notices
before using the electric tool and keep the safety instructions
for later reference.

Safe work

1 Keep the work area orderly

– Disorder in the work area can lead to accidents.

2 Take environmental influences into account

– Do not expose electric tools to rain.
– Do not use electric tools in a damp or wet environment.
– Make sure that the work area is well-illuminated.
– Do not use electric tools where there is a risk of fire or

explosion.

3 Protect yourself from electric shock

– Avoid physical contact with earthed parts (e.g. pipes,

radiators, electric ranges, cooling units).

4 Keep children away

– Do not allow other persons to touch the equipment or

cable, keep them away from your work area.

5 Securely store unused electric tools

– Unused electric tools should be stored in a dry, elevated

or closed location out of the reach of children.

6 Do not overload your electric tool

– They work better and more safely in the specified output

range.

7 Use the correct electric tool

– Do not use low-output electric tools for heavy work.
– Do not use the electric tool for purposes for which it is

not intended. For example, do not use handheld circular
saws for the cutting of branches or logs.

– Do not use the electric tool to cut firewood.

8 Wear suitable clothing

– Do not wear wide clothing or jewellery, which can be-

come entangled in moving parts.

– When working outdoors, anti-slip footwear is recommended.
– Tie long hair back in a hair net.

9 Use protective equipment

– Wear protective goggles.
– Wear a mask when carrying out dust-creating work.

10 Connect the dust extraction device if you will be process-

ing wood, materials similar to wood, or plastics.

– If connections for dust extraction and a collecting de-

vice are present, make sure that they are connected
and used properly.

– When processing wood, materials similar to wood, and

plastics. Operation in enclosed spaces is only permit­ted with the use of a suitable extraction system.

11 Do not use the cable for purposes for which it is not

intended

— Do not use the cable to pull the plug out of the outlet.

Protect the cable from heat, oil and sharp edges.

12 Secure the workpiece

– Use the clamping devices or a vice to hold the work-

piece in place. In this manner, it is held more securely
than with your hand.

GB/IE/NI

4

– An additional support is necessary for long workpieces

(table, trestle, etc.) in order to prevent the machine
from tipping over.

– Always press the workpiece firmly against the working

plate and stop in order to prevent bouncing and twist­ing of the workpiece.

13 Avoid abnormal posture

– Make sure that you have secure footing and always

maintain your balance.

– Avoid awkward hand positions in which a sudden slip

could cause one or both hands to come into contact
with the saw blade.

14 Take care of your tools

– Keep cutting tools sharp and clean in order to be able

to work better and more safely.

– Follow the instructions for lubrication and for tool re-

placement.

– Check the connection cable of the electric tool regu-

larly and have it replaced by a recognised specialist
when damaged.

– Check extension cables regularly and replace them

when damaged.

– Keep the handle dry, clean and free of oil and grease.

15 Pull the plug out of the outlet

– Never remove loose splinters, chips or jammed wood

pieces from the running saw blade.

– During non-use of the electric tool or prior to mainte-

nance and when replacing tools such as saw blades,
bits, milling heads.

– When the saw blade is blocked due to abnormal feed

force during cutting, turn the machine off and discon­nect it from power supply. Remove the work piece and
ensure that the saw blade runs free. Turn the machine
on and start new cutting operation with reduced feed
force.

16 Do not leave a tool key inserted

– Before switching on, make sure that keys and adjusting

tools are removed.

17 Avoid inadvertent starting

– Make sure that the switch is switched off when plugging

the plug into an outlet.

18 Use extension cables for outdoors

– Only use approved and appropriately identified exten-

sion cables for use outdoors.

– Only use cable reels in the unrolled state.

19 Remain attentive

– Pay attention to what you are doing. Remain sensible

when working. Do not use the electric tool when you
are distracted.

20 Check the electric tool for potential damage

– Protective devices and other parts must be carefully

inspected to ensure that they are fault-free and function
as intended prior to continued use of the electric tool.

– Check whether the moving parts function faultlessly

and do not jam or whether parts are damaged.
All parts must be correctly mounted and all conditions must
be fulfilled to ensure fault-free operation of the electric tool.

– The moving protective hood may not be fixed in the

open position.

– Damaged protective devices and parts must be prop-

erly repaired or replaced by a recognised workshop,
insofar as nothing different is specified in the operating
