curved cuts and sawing flush. Please heed the information on saw blades and the advice on working with your saw. Any other use or modification to
the device shall be considered as improper use
and could give rise to considerable dangers. The
manufacturer will not accept liability for loss or
damage arising from improper use. The device is
not intended for commercial use.

Noise and vibration data:
Measured value for sound determined in accordance with EN 60745. The A-weighted sound level
of the electric power tool is typically:
Sound pressure level: 86 dB(A)
Sound power level: 99 dB(A)
Uncertainty K: 3 dB
Wear ear protection!
Evaluated acceleration, typical:
Hand / arm vibration a
Uncertainty K = 1.5 m / s

The vibration level given in these
2
instructions has been measured in accordance with a
standardised measurement procedure specified in
EN 60745 and can be used to compare devices.
Different uses of the device give rise to different vibration levels and in many cases they may exceed the
values given in these instructions. It is easy to underestimate the vibration load if the electrical power tool is
used regularly in particular circumstances.
Note: If you wish to make an accurate assessment
of the vibration loads experienced during a particular period of working, you should also take into account the intervening periods of time when the device is switched off or is running but is not actually
in use. This can result in a much lower vibration
load over the whole of the period of working.
General safety advice for
electrical power tools
WARNING!
and instructions! Failure to observe the safety
advice and instructions may result in electric shock,
fire and / or serious injury.
Read all the safety advice
Keep all the safety advice and instructions
in a safe place for future reference!
The term “electrical tool” used in the safety advice
refers to electrical tools powered by mains electricity
(by means of a mains lead) and electrical tools powered by rechargeable batteries (without a mains lead).
1. Workplace safety
a) Keep your working area clean and
well lit. Untidy or poorly lit working areas
can lead to accidents.
b)
Do not work with the device
in potentially explosive environments in which there are
inflammable liquids, gases or dusts.
Electrical power tools create sparks, which can
ignite dusts or fumes.
c)
Keep children and other
people away while you are
operating the electrical tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control of
the device.
2. Electrical safety
a)
The mains plug on the device must match
the mains socket. The plug must not
be modified in any way. Do not use
an adapter plug with devices fitted
with a protective earth. Unmodified
plugs and matching sockets reduce the risk of
electric shock.
b) Avoid touching earthed surfaces such
as pipes, radiators, ovens and refrigerators with any part of your body.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if
your body is earthed
c) Keep the device away from rain or
moisture. Water entering an electrical device
increases the risk of electric shock.
d)
Do not use the mains lead for
any purpose for which it was
not intended, e.g. to carry the
device, to hang up the device or to pull
.
