Warning! Protecting yourself from laser radiation:

Laser radiation

Never look directly into the beam!

Laser class 2

Maximum output power ≤ 1 mW

Wavelength: 650 nm

JDo not look directly into the laser beam or into the opening from which it is emitted.

JNever direct the laser beam on to reflective surfaces or at people or animals. Even a brief look into a laser beam can damage your eyes.

JNever open the laser unit housing.

JIf the device is likely to remain unused for an extended period, remove the batteries from the laser unit battery compartment.

Working safely:

JIf a dangerous situation arises, pull the mains plug immediately out of the mains socket.

JNever use the device for a purpose for which it was not intended.

JAlways keep the device clean, dry and free of oil or grease.

JIf the saw is used whilst fixed in place on a saw table then the saw table must have a restart cut-out.

JMake sure the device is switched on before placing it against the workpiece.

JAlways work away from your body.

JDo not saw materials containing asbestos.

JThe course of the cut must have no obstructions above or below it.

12 GB/IE/CY

JThe saw blade must not project more than 3 mm out of the workpiece.

JWhen you are sawing, always make sure that you do not cut through any nails, screws or the like.

JDo not work with the device in the overhead position.

JProtect the saw blade from sharp blows or impacts and prevent it from becoming tilted.

JWhen you switch off the saw, allow the blade to slow down naturally - do not assist this process in any way.

JCracked or distorted blades are not to be used. HSS (High Speed Steel) saw blades are not to be used.

JBefore carrying out any work on the saw, e.g. setting the base plate etc. always pull the mains plug out of the mains socket.

JNever remove sawdust or splinters whilst the saw is running.

JHave a suitable, tested vacuum removal device attached to the saw when working with woods or materials that create dusts that may be hazardous to health.

JAlways use the safety devices integrated into the circular saw, e.g. the safety lock-out and automatic blade guard.

JEnsure that all moving parts of the saw blade protection system function properly and all the assemblies and components involved in covering the saw blade are in perfect working order.

JDo not lock on the ON / OFF switch in hand- guided operation.
