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) 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 power
tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e) 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.
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.
5) BATTeRy TOOL USe AND CARe
a) Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that

DANgeR: keep hands away from cutting area and the blade. keep your
second hand on auxiliary handle or motor housing. If both hands are holding the
saw, they cannot be cut by the blade.

c) Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of the workpiece. Less than a full
tooth of the blade teeth should be visible below the workpiece.
d) Never hold piece being cut in your hands or across your leg. Secure the
workpiece to a stable platform. It is important to support the work properly to
minimize body exposure, blade binding, or loss of control.

operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring. Contact with a
“live” wire will also make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and shock the
operator.
