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
Safety instructions for circular saws
- 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.
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
kick back.
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
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
oor without making sure that the protective
cover is over the saw blade. An unprotected,
running saw blade can move the saw against
