f) Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or ex-
cessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature
above 130 °C may cause explosion.
g) Follow all charging instructions and do not charge
the battery pack or tool outside the temperature
range specified in the instructions. Charging im-
properly or at temperatures outside the specified
range may damage the battery and increase the risk
of fire.
6) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified re-
pair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
b) Never service damaged battery packs. Service of
battery packs should only be performed by the manu-
facturer or authorized service providers.
Safety instructions for all saws
Sawing process
DANGER
Do not place your hands in the sawing area or on
the saw blade. Hold the additional handle or the mo-
tor housing with your second hand. If both hands
hold the saw, they cannot be injured by the saw blade.
a) Do not reach beneath the workpiece. The protective
cover cannot protect you from the saw blade beneath
the workpiece.
b) Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of the
workpiece. Less than one full tooth height should be
visible beneath the workpiece.
c) Never hold the workpiece that is to be sawn in the
hand or over the leg. Secure the workpiece on a
stable support. It is important to fasten the workpiece
well, in order to minimise any risk of physical contact,
jamming of the saw blade or loss of control.
d) When performing work during which the tool at-
tachment can meet with concealed power lines or
its own connection cable, hold the power tool by
the insulated gripping surfaces. Contact with a live
cable will also energise the metal parts of the electri-
cal tool and will lead to an electric shock.
e) When performing a longitudinal cut always use a
stop or a straight edge guide.This improves the cut-
ting accuracy and reduces the possibility of the saw
blade jamming.
f) Always use saw blades with correct size and
shape (diamond versus round) of arbour holes.
Saw blades that do not match the mounting hardware
of the saw will run off-centre, causing loss of control.
g) Never use damaged or incorrect saw blade wash-
ers or screws. The saw blade washers and screws
have been specially designed for your saw, for opti-
mum performance and operational safety.
Additional instructions
a) Do not use grinding discs.
b) Make sure that a suitable saw blade for the material to
be cut is selected.
22 | GB
c) Saw blades designed to cut wood and similar materi-
als must comply with EN 847-1.
d) The saw may only be used for sawing wood, plastic
and light building materials.
e) Only use saw blades with a speed marking equal to or
higher than the specified speed of your product.
f) Only use saw blades with 165 mm diameter that
match the inscriptions on the saw blade.
g) Avoid overheating the saw teeth.
h) When sawing plastic, avoid melting of the plastic.
Use the correct saw blades for the material to be cut.
Replace damaged or worn saw blades immediately.
When the saw blade overheats, stop the machine. Al-
low the saw blade to cool down before using the ma-
chine again.
i)
Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of the
workpiece. Less than one full tooth height should be
visible beneath the workpiece.
j)
Wear a dust mask.
k) Wear hearing protection and safety goggles during the
entire operating period.
Further safety instructions for all saws
Kickback - causes and corresponding safety
instructions
• Kickback is a sudden reaction to a hooked, jammed or
incorrectly aligned saw blade, which leads to an un-
controlled rebounding of the saw, whereby it moves
out of the workpiece in the direction of the operator.
• If the saw blade hooks or jams in the closing sawing
gap, it is blocked and the motor power forces the saw
back in the direction of the operator.
• If the saw blade skews or is incorrectly aligned in the
saw cut, the teeth of the rear saw blade edge can
hook into the wooden surface, which results in the
saw blade moving out of the sawing gap and the saw
jumping back in the direction of the operator.
Kickback is the result of incorrect use or misuse of the
saw. It can be prevented by suitable precautionary mea-
sures, as described in the following.
a) Hold the saw firmly with both hands and bring
your arms into a position in which you can absorb
the kickback forces. Always stand to the side of
the saw blade; never bring the saw blade in line
with your body. During kickback, the circular saw
can jump backwards, although the operator is able to
control the kickback forces using suitable measures.
b) If the saw blade jams or you interrupt your work,
switch off the saw and hold the saw calmly in the
material, until the saw blade has come to a stand-
still. Never attempt to remove the saw from the
workpiece or draw it backwards whilst the saw
blade is moving, otherwise kickback can occur.
Determine and remedy the cause of the saw blade
jamming.
c) If you wish to restart a saw that is inserted in a
workpiece, centre the saw blade in the sawing gap
and check that the saw teeth are not hooked in the
workpiece. If the saw blade is hooked in, it can move
out of the workpiece or cause kick-back when the saw
is restarted.
