d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before
turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may
result in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. This enables better con trol of
the power tool in unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery
or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these
are connected and properly used. Use of dust
collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
4) Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the cor rect po-
wer tool for your application. The correct power
tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for
which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not
turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dan gerous 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 child-
ren and do not allow persons unfamil iar with
the power tool or these instruc tions to operate
the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalign ment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and
any other condition that may affect the power
tool's operation. If dam aged, have the power tool
repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly main tained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Prop erly
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 instruc tions, taking into
account the working con ditions and the work to
be performed. Use of the power tool for opera-
tions different from those intended could result in
a hazardous situ ation.
6) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a quali fied
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.

current of 30mA).
wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause
hearing loss.
Wear gloves when handling saw blades and rough
materials.
The dust produced when using this tool may be
harmful to health. Do not inhale the dust. Use a dust
absorption system and wear a suitable dust protec-
tion mask. Remove deposited dust thoroughly, e.g.
with a vacuum cleaner.
before use check machine, cable, and plug for any
damages or material fatigue. Repairs should only be
carried out by authorised Service Agents.
Always use the protective shields on the machine.
For security, use devices such as safety- and pressure
device, guide slide, rip fence, etc.
Any faults with the machine, including any related to
the safeguard or the saw blades, must be reported to
the persons in charge of safety as soon as the faults
are discovered.
Do not use circular saws for cutting slots (grooves in
workpiece).
Cutting rebates or grooves is only permitted with a
suitable protective device fi tted, e.g. a protective
tunnel over the saw table.
Support large panels to minimise the risk of blade
pinching and kickback. Large panels tend to sag un-
der their own weight. Supports must be placed under
the panel on both sides, near the line of cut and near
the edge of the panel.
Sawdust and splinters must not be removed while the
machine is running.
Replace the table insert when worn
Do not use saw blades which are damaged or
deformed
The teeth thickness, or the set of the teeth must be
thicker than the body of the blade and the riving
knife. Do not remove the riving knife.
It is necessary to select a saw blade which is suitable
for the material being cut.
Do not use saw blades not corresponding to the key
data given in these instructions for use.
Only use tools that meet standard EN 847-1.
Do not use saw blades made of high-speed steel.
Transport and store the tools in a suitable container;
It is essential to adhere to the maximum speed speci-
fied on the saw blade.
The handle lock must always be engaged when trans-
porting the circular table saw.
