1) Work Area
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust.Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust of fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock
2) Electrical Safety
a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way.
Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power
tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or
unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts.Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for
outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric
shock.
f) Always use the power tool in conjunction with a residual circuit breaker
device.The use of a residual circuit breaker device reduces the risk of electric
shock.
3) Personal Safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when
under the influence of drugs,alcohol or medication.

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 control 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.The use of these
pieces of equipment reduce hazards caused by dust.
4) Power Tool Use and Care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power 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 dangerous and must be
repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source 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 tools
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 and in the manner intended for the particular type of
power tool, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from intended could
result in a hazardous situation.
5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Safety instructions for all saws
Cutting procedures
b) DANGER: Keep hands away from cutting area and the blade. Keep your
second hand on auxiliary handle, ormotor housing. If both hands are holding the
saw, they cannot be cut by the blade.

ENGLISH
5
c) Do not reach underneath the workpiece.The guard cannot protect you from
the blade below the workpiece.
d) 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.
e) 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.
f ) Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only, when performing
an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Contact with a "live" wire will also make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live"
and could give the operator an electric shock.
g) When ripping, always use a rip fence or straight edge guide.This improves
the accuracy of cut and reduces the chance of blade binding.
h) Always use blades with correct size and shape (diamond versus round) of
arbour holes. Blades that do not match the mounting hardware of the saw will
run eccentrically, causing loss of control.
i ) Never use damaged or incorrect blade washers or bolt.The blade washers
and bolt were specially designed for your saw, for optimum performance and
safety of operation.
Further safety instructions for all saws
Kickback causes and related warnings
– kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched, bound or misaligned saw blade,
causing an uncontrolled saw to lift up and out of the workpiece toward the operator;
– when the blade is pinched or bound tightly by the kerf closing down, the blade
stalls and the motor reaction drives the unit rapidly back toward the operator;
– if the blade becomes twisted or misaligned in the cut, the teeth at the back
edge of the blade can dig into the top surface of the wood causing the blade to
climb out of the kerf and jump back toward the operator.
Kickback is the result of saw misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or
conditions and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as given below.
a) Maintain a firm grip with both hands on the saw and position your arms
to resist kickback forces. Position your body to either side of the blade,
but not in line with the blade. Kickback could cause the saw to jump backwards,
but kickback forces can be controlled by the operator, if proper precautions are taken.
b) When blade is binding, or when interrupting a cut for any reason, release the
trigger and hold the saw motionless in the material until the blade comes to
a complete stop. Never attempt to remove the saw from the work or pull the
saw backward while the blade is in motion or kickback may occur.Investigate
and take corrective actions toeliminate the cause of blade binding.
c) When restarting a saw in the workpiece, centre the saw blade in the kerf and
check that saw teeth are not engaged into the material. If saw blade is binding,
it may walk up or kickback from the workpiece as the saw is restarted.

ENGLISH
6
d) Do not use dull or damaged blades.Unsharpened or improperly set blades produce
narrow kerf causing excessive friction, blade binding and kickback.
e) Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking levers must be tight and secure before
making cut. If blade adjustment shifts while cutting, it may cause binding and kickback.
f ) Use extra caution when sawing into existing walls or other blind areas.The
protruding blade may cut objects that can cause kickback.
Guard function
a) Check guard for proper closing before each use. Do not operate the saw if guard
does not move freely and enclose the blade instantly. Never clamp or tie the guard
so that the blade is exposed.If saw is accidentally dropped, guard may be bent.
Check to make sure that guard moves freely and does not touch the blade or any other
part, in all angles and depths of cut.
b) Check the operation and condition of the guard return spring. If the guard and
the spring are not operating properly, they must be serviced before use. Guard
may operate sluggishly due to damaged parts, gummy deposits, or a build-up of debris.
c) Assure that the base plate of the saw will not shift while performing the “plunge
cut” when the blade bevel setting is not at 90°. Blade shifting sideways will cause
binding and likely kick back.
d) Always observe that the guard is covering the blade before placing saw down on
bench or floor. An unprotected, coasting blade will cause the saw to walk backwards,
cutting whatever is in its path. Be aware of the time it takes for the blade to stop after
switch is released.
Safety instructions for abrasive cutting-off operations
Cut-off machine safety warnings
a) The guard provided with the tool must be securely attached to the power tool and
positioned for maximum safety, so the least amount of wheel is exposed towards
the operator. Position yourself and bystanders away from the plane of the rotating
wheel.The guard helps to protect operator from broken wheel fragments and accidental
contact with wheel.
b) Use only bonded reinforced or diamond cut-off wheels for your power tool.Just
because an accessory can be attached to your power tool, it does not assure safe
operation.
c) The rated speed of the accessory must be at least equal to the maximum speed
marked on the power tool. Accessories running faster than their rated speed can break
and fly apart.
d) Wheels must be used only for recommended applications. For example: do not grind
with the side of cut-off wheel.Abrasive cut-off wheels are intended for peripheral grinding,
side forces applied to these wheels may cause them to shatter.
e) Always use undamaged wheel flanges that are of correct diameter for your selected
wheel. Proper wheel flanges support the wheel thus reducing the possibility of wheel
breakage.
f) Do not use worn down reinforced wheels from larger power tools.Wheels intended
for a larger power tool are not suitable for the higher speed of a smaller tool and may burst.

ENGLISH
7
g) The outside diameter and the thickness of your accessory must be within
the capacityrating of your power tool. Incorrectly sized accessories cannot be
adequately guarded or controlled.
h) The arbour size of wheels and flanges must properly fit the spindle of the power
tool.Wheels and flanges with arbour holes that do not match the mounting hardware of
the power tool will run out of balance, vibrate excessively and may cause loss of control.
i) Do not use damaged wheels. Before each use, inspect the wheels for chips and
cracks. If power tool or wheel is dropped, inspect for damage or install an
undamaged wheel. After inspecting and installing the wheel, position yourself and
bystanders away from the plane of the rotating wheel and run the power tool at
Damaged wheels will normally break apart
during this test time.
maximum no load speed for one minute.
j) Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on application, use face shield,
safetygoggles or safety glasses. As appropriate, wear dust mask, hearing protectors,
gloves andshop apron capable of stopping small abrasive or workpiece fragments.
The eye protectionmust be capable of stopping flying debris generated by various operations.
The dust mask or respirator must be capable of filtrating particles generated by your
operation. Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise may cause hearing loss.
k) Keep bystanders a safe distance away from work area. Anyone entering the work
area must wear personal protective equipment. Fragments of workpiece or of a broken
wheel may fly away and cause injury beyond immediate area of operation.
l) Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only, when performing an operation
where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory
contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could
give the operator an electric shock.
m) Position the cord clear of the spinning accessory. If you lose control, the cord may be
cut or snagged and your hand or arm may be pulled into the spinning wheel.
n) Never lay the power tool down until the accessory has come to a complete stop.The
spinning wheel may grab the surface and pull the power tool out of your control.
o) Do not run the power tool while carrying it at your side. Accidental contact with the
spinning accessory could snag your clothing, pulling the accessory into your body.
p) Regularly clean the power tool’s air vents.The motor’s fan will draw the dust inside the
housing and excessive accumulation of powdered metal may cause electrical hazards.
q) Do not operate the power tool near flammable materials.Sparks could ignite these
materials.
r) Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants. Using water or other liquid coolants
may result in electrocution or shock.
Further safety instructions for abrasive cutting-off operations
Kickback and related warnings
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged rotating wheel. Pinching or snagging
causes rapid stalling of the rotating wheel which in turn causes the uncontrolled power tool to
be forced in the direction opposite of the wheel’s rotation at the point of the binding.
For example, if an abrasive wheel is snagged or pinched by the workpiece, the edge of the
wheel that is entering into the pinch point can dig into the surface of the material causing the
wheel to climb out or kick out. The wheel may either jump toward or away from the operator,

depending on direction of the wheel’s movement at the point of pinching. Abrasive
wheels may also break under these conditions.
Kickback is the result of power tool misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or
conditions and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as given below.
a) Maintain a firm grip on the power tool and position your body and arm to allow
you to resist kickback forces. Always use auxiliary handle, if provided, for
maximum control over kickback or torque reaction during start-up.The operator
can control torque reactions or kickback forces, if proper precautions are taken.
b) Never place your hand near the rotating accessory.Accessory may kickback over
your hand.
c) Do not position your body in line with the rotating wheel. Kickback will propel the
tool in direction opposite to the wheel’s movement at the point of snagging.
d) Use special care when working corners, sharp edges etc. Avoid bouncing and
snagging the accessory.Corners, sharp edges or bouncing have a tendency to snag
the rotating accessory and cause loss of control or kickback.
e) Do not attach a saw chain, woodcarving blade, segmented diamond wheel with a
peripheral gap greater than 10 mm or toothed saw blade.Such blades create
frequent kickback and loss of control.
f) Do not “jam” the wheel or apply excessive pressure. Do not attempt to make an
excessive depth of cut.Overstressing the wheel increases the loading and
susceptibility to twisting or binding of the wheel in the cut and the possibility of kickback
or wheel breakage.
g) When wheel is binding or when interrupting a cut for any reason, switch off the
power tool and hold the power tool motionless until the wheel comes to a complete
stop. Never attempt to remove the wheel from the cut while the wheel is in motion
otherwise kickback may occur.Investigate and take corrective action to eliminate the
cause of wheel binding.
h) Do not restart the cutting operation in the workpiece. Let the wheel reach full speed
and carefully re-enter the cut.The wheel may bind, walk up or kickback if the power tool
is restarted in the workpiece.
i) Support panels or any oversized workpiece to minimize the risk of wheel pinching
and kickback. Large workpieces tend to sag under their own weight. Supports must be
placed under the workpiece near the line of cut and near the edge of the workpiece on
both sides of the wheel.
j) Use extra caution when making a “pocket cut” into existing walls or other blind
areas.The protruding wheel may cut gas or water pipes, electrical wiring or objects that
can cause kickback.
Safety instructions for this mini circular saw
a) Check before each use that the safety guard closes correctly. Do not use
the saw if the lower safety guard does not move freely and does not close
immediately. Never clamp or secure the lower safety guard in the open
position. If the saw should accidentally fall to the ground, the lower safety
guard may become bent. Open the safety guard with the retraction lever and
ensure that it moves freely. Check that it does not interfere with the saw blade or
other components, at any cutting angle or cutting depth.

ENGLISH

b) Check the condition and operation of the spring for the lower safety guard.
Do not use the equipment if the lower safety guard and spring do not work
perfectly. Damaged parts, adhesive deposits or accumulations of shavings
retard the operation of the lower safety guard.
c) When making a plunge cut which is not at right angles, make sure that the
Do not put down the saw on the workbench or floor, without the lower
saw’s guide plate can not move laterally. Lateral movements can cause the
saw blade to jam and hence result in kickback.
d) safety guard covering the saw blade. When slowing down after use, an
unprotected saw blade will move the saw in the direction opposite to the cutting
direction and will saw whatever lies in its path. Pay attention, therefore, to the
deceleration time of the saw.
e) Use only sawblades with the correct diameter according to what is printed on the
saw.
f) When sawing plastics please ensure not to overheat the saw teeth tips to avoid
melting the plastic.

CONSIGNES DE SÉCURITÉ
b) Évitez le contact direct avec les surfaces mises à la terre ou mises à la
masse comme les canalisations, les radiateurs, les cuisinières et les
réfrigérateurs. En effet, le risque de choc électrique augmente si votre corps
est mis à la terre ou à la masse.
c) N‘utilisez pas d’outils électriques dans des environnements pluvieux ou
humides. Si de l’eau s’introduit dans un appareil électrique, le risque de choc
électrique augmentera.
d) Ne pas maltraiter le cordon. N’utilisez jamais le câble pour transporter,
tirer ou débrancher l’appareil électrique. Veillez à garder le câble éloigné
des sources de chaleur, des huiles, des rebords coupants ou des pièces
actionnées. Les câbles endommagés ou entremêlés augmentent le risque de
choc électrique.
e) Lorsqu’un appareil est utilisé à l’extérieur, utilisez uniquement une
rallonge prévue à cet effet. L’utilisation d’un câble prévu pour l’usage extérieur
réduit le risque de choc électrique.
f) Si l'usage d'un outil dans un emplacement humide est inévitable, utiliser
une alimentation protégée par un dispositif à courant différentiel résiduel.
L'usage d'un courant différentiel résiduel réduit le risque de choc électrique.
