The manufacturer shall not be liable for any changes made to the tool nor for any damage resulting from such changes.
Even when the tool is used as prescribed it is not possible to eliminate all residual risk factors. The following hazards may arise in connection with the tool’s construction and design:
•Contact with the blade.
•Kickback of work piece and parts of work piece.
•Blade fracture.
•Catapulting of blade pieces.
•Damage to hearing if effective earmuffs are not worn.
•Harmful emissions of sawdust when the machine is used in closed rooms. Always use supplementary dust extraction where possible.
•Do not use blades that are deformed or cracked.
•Fully unwind cable drum extensions to avoid potential overheating.
•When an extension cable is required, you must ensure that it has the right ampere rating for your power tool and is in safe electrical condition.
•After long working periods external metal parts and accessories could be hot.
•Do not force the saw; let the tool do the work at a reasonable speed. Overloading will occur if too much pressure is applied and the motor slows resulting in inefficient cutting and possible damage to the motor.
•Always remove the plug from the mains socket before making any adjustments or maintenance, including changing the blade.
WARNINGS. Before connecting a tool to a power source (mains switch power point receptacle, outlet, etc.) be sure that the voltage supply is the same as that specified on the nameplate of the tool. A power source with a voltage greater than that specified for the tool can result in serious injury to the user, as well as damage to the tool.
If in doubt, do not plug in the tool. Using a power source with a voltage less than the nameplate rating is harmful to the motor.
