Safety warnings for sabre saws
•
Make sure that the foot plate is positioned securely when sawing. A tilted saw blade may
break or cause kickback.
•
When carrying out a plunge cut that is not performed at right angles, secure the guide plate
of the saw to ensure that it is not able to slip sideways. A slip to the side may result in the
saw blade becoming jammed and thus cause kickback.
•
Check to make sure that the saw blade is securely fitted. A loose saw blade may fall out and
injure you.
•
When ejecting the saw blade, hold the power tool in such a way that neither persons or
animals can be injured by the ejected saw blade.
•
The contact protection affixed to the housing prevents accident contact with the saw blade
during operation and may not be removed.
Additional safety notes
•
Hold the power tool using insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where
the cutting tool may make contact with hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a "live"
wire will also make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and shock the operator.
•
Prior to starting work, use an appropriate tool to determine whether there are any hidden
supply lines located in the area you are working in. If in doubt, ask the relevant supply ser-
vices. Contact with power lines may cause fire and electrical shock. Damaging a gas pipe
may cause an explosion. Damaging a water pipe leads to considerable property damage
and may cause electrical shock.
•
Wait until the power tool has come to a standstill before you put it down. The inserted tool
may otherwise jam and cause a loss of control over the power tool.
•
Secure the workpiece. A workpiece secured using clamps or a vice is held more safely than
one held by hand.
•
Keep your workplace clean. Mixed contamination by various materials is particularly dan-
gerous. Light metal dust (e.g. aluminium) can ignite or explode easily.
•
Never use the power tool with a damaged cable. Do not touch a damaged cable and pull
out the power plug immediately. Damaged cables increase the risk of electric shock.
•
Prevent overheating of the device and the workpiece. Excess heat may damage the tool
and the device.
•
Shortly after being used, the tool may be very hot. Allow a hot tool to cool down. Touching a
hot tool may cause burns.
•
Never clean a hot tool with flammable liquids. There is a risk of fire and explosions.
•
Keep the handles dry and free of grease.
•
Slippery handles can lead to accidents.
•
Always comply with all the applicable domestic and international safety, health, and working
regulations. Inform yourself before you start work about the regulations that apply at the site
of the device.
•
Remember that moving parts may also be located behind ventilation and venting slots.
•
Symbols affixed to your unit may not be removed or covered. Information on the unit that is
no longer legible must be replaced immediately.
Before putting the unit into operation, read and observe the instructions for use.
Dust extraction
•
Dusts from materials such as lead-containing paint, some types of wood, minerals and met-
al may be harmful to health. Touching or inhaling the dusts can cause allergic reactions and/
or ailments of the respiratory tract of the user or persons in the vicinity. Certain dusts such
