1. GENERAL SAFETY RULES
WARNING! Read all instructions. Failure to
follow all instructions listed below may result
in electric shock, re and/or serious injury. The
term ’’power tool’’ in all of the warnings listed
below refers to your mains-operated (corded)
power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power
tool.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
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
ammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools
create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c. Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can cause
you to lose control.
2. Electrical safety
a. Power tools plugs must match the outlet.
Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use
any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded)
power tool. Unmodied plugs and matching
outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
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. If operating a power tool in a damp location is
unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD)
protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of
electric shock.
3. Personal safety
a. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power tool.
Do not use a power tool while you are tired or
under the inuence of drugs, alcohol or
medication. A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious
personal injury.
b. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye
protection. Safety equipment such as dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will
reduce personal injuries.
c. Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in
the o-position before plugging in. Carrying
power tools with your nger on the switch or

2. BATTERY SAFETY RULES
Battery tool use and care
a) Recharge only with the charger specied by the
manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of
battery pack may create a risk of re when used with another
battery pack.
b) Use power tools only with specically designated battery
packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of
injury and re.
c) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other
metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws
or other small metal objects, that can make a connection
from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals
together may cause burns or a re.
d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from
the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs,
ush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek
medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause
irritation or burns.
Additional safety instructions
We pay a great deal of attention to the design of every
battery pack to ensure that we supply you with batteries
which feature maximum power density, durability and
safety. The battery cells have a wide range of safety devices.
Each individual cell is initially formatted and its electrical
characteristic curves are recorded. This data is then used
exclusively to be able to assemble the best possible battery
packs. Despite all the safety precautions, caution must
always be exercised when handling batteries. The following
points must be obeyed at all times to ensure safe use.
Safe use can only be guaranteed if undamaged cells are
used. Incorrect handling can cause cell damage.
Important: Analyses conrm that incorrect use and poor
care are the main causes of the damage caused by high
performance batteries.
Information about the battery
1. The battery pack supplied with your cordless tool is not
charged. The battery pack has to be charged before you
use the tool for the rst time.
2. For optimum battery performance avoid low discharge
cycles. Charge the battery pack frequently.
3. Store the battery pack in a cool place, ideally at 15°C and
charged to at least 40%.
4. Lithium-ion batteries are subject to a natural ageing
process. The battery pack must be replaced at the latest
when its capacity falls to just 80% of its capacity when
new. Weakened cells in an aged battery pack are no
longer capable of meeting the high power requirements
and therefore pose a safety risk.
5. Do not throw battery packs into an open re. There is a
risk of explosion!
6. Do not ignite the battery pack or expose it to re.
7. Do not exhaustively discharge batteries. Exhaustive
discharge will damage the battery cells. The most
common cause of exhaustive discharge is lengthy
storage or non-use of partly discharged batteries. Stop
working as soon as the performance of the battery falls
noticeably or the electronic protection system triggers.
Place the battery pack in storage only after it has been
fully charged.
8. Protect batteries and the tool from overloads. Overloads
will quickly result in overheating and cell damage inside
the battery housing without this overheating actually
being apparent externally.
9. Avoid damage and shocks.
Replace batteries which have been dropped from a height
of more than one meter or which have been exposed to
violent shocks without delay, even if the housing of the
battery pack appears to be undamaged. The battery cells
inside the battery may have suered serious damage.
In this respect, please also read the waste disposal
information.
10. If the battery pack suers overloading and overheating,
the integrated protective cut-o will switch o the
equipment for safety reasons.
Important. Do not press the ON/OFF switch any more if
the protective cut-o has actuated. This may damage the
battery pack.
11. Use only original battery packs. The use of other batteries
may result in injuries, explosion and a re risk.
Information on chargers and the charging process
1. Please check the data marked on the rating plate of the
battery charger. Be sure to connect the battery charger
to a power supply with the voltage marked on the rating
plate. Never connect it to a dierent mains voltage.
2. Protect the battery charger and its cable from damage
and sharp edges. Have damaged cables repaired without
delay by a qualied electrician.
3. Keep the battery charger, batteries and the cordless tool
out of children’s reach.
4. Do not use damaged battery chargers.
5. Do not use the supplied battery charger to charge other
cordless tools.
6. In heavy use the battery pack will become warm. Allow
the battery pack to cool to room temperature before
commencing with the charging.
7. Do not over-charge batteries.
Do not exceed the maximum charging times. These
charging times only apply to discharged batteries.
Frequent insertion of a charged or partly charged battery
pack will result in overcharging and cell damage. Do not
leave batteries in the charger for days on end.
6
8. Never use or charge batteries if you suspect that the
last time they were charged was more than 12 months
previously. There is a high probability that the battery
pack has already suered dangerous damage (exhaustive
discharge).
9. Charging batteries at a temperature below 10°C will cause
chemical damage to the cell and may cause a re.
10. Do not use batteries which have heated during the
charging process, as the battery cells may have suered
dangerous damage.
11. Do not use batteries which have suered curvature
or deformation during the charging process or which
show other non-typical symptoms (gassing, hissing,
cracking,…)
12. Never fully discharge the battery pack (recommended
depth of discharge max. 80%) A complete discharge of
the battery pack will lead to premature ageing of the
battery cells.
13. Never charge the batteries unsupervised.
Protection from environmental inuences
1. Wear suitable work clothes. Wear safety goggles.
2. Protect your cordless tool and the battery charger from
moisture and rain. Moisture and rain can cause dangerous
cell damage.
3. Do not use the cordless tool or the battery charger near
vapors and inammable liquids.
4. Use the battery charger and cordless tools only in dry
conditions and an ambient temperature of 10–40°C.
5. Do not keep the battery charger in places where the
temperature is liable to reach over 40°C. In particular, do
not leave the battery charger in a car that is parked in
the sun.
6. Protect batteries from overheating.
Overloads, over-charging and exposure to direct sunlight
will result in overheating and cell damage. Never charge
or work with batteries which have been overheated –
replace them immediately if possible.
7. Storage of batteries, battery chargers and cordless
tools. Store the charger and your cordless tool only in
dry places with an ambient temperature of 10-40°C.
Store your lithium-ion battery pack in a cool, dry place at
a temperature of 10-20°C. Protect them from humidity
and direct sunlight. Only place fully charged batteries in
storage (charged at least 40%).
8. Prevent the lithium-ion battery pack from freezing.
Battery packs which were stored below 0°C for more
than 60 minutes must be disposed of. 9. When handling
batteries beware of electrostatic charge: Electrostatic
discharges cause damage of the electronic protection
system and the battery cells. Avoid electrostatic charging
and never touch the battery poles.
Disposal of batteries
Batteries contain substances harmful to the environment.
Never place batteries in your household refuse, in re or in
water. Batteries should be collected, recycled or disposed of
in an environmentally friendly way. Seek advice on correct
disposal from local waste authorities.
When shipping or disposing of batteries and cordless tools,

• Select the suitable accessory. Push the accessory as far as
possible into the chuck opening (a).
• Tighten the chuck (7) and then check that the accessory
is secure.
4.6.6 Screwdriving
We recommend using self-centering screws (e.g. Torx screws,
recessed head screws) designed for reliable working. Be sure
14
to use a bit that matches the screw in shape and size. Set
the torque, as described in section 6.1 in these operating
instructions, to suit the size of screw.
4.6.7 Selecting 1st gear to 2nd gear (Fig. 3/Item 6)
By adjusting the selector switch (6), you can work with a faster
or slower turning speed. Change the gear only when the drill
is at a standstill. If you fail to observe this point, the gearing
may be damaged.

Read all safety regulations and instructions.
Any errors made in following the safety regulations and
instructions may result in an electric shock, re and/or serious
injury.
Keep all safety regulations and instructions in a safe place
for future use.
Safety instructions for all circular saws
Danger:
a) Do not reach into the sawing area or touch the saw blade.
Hold the additional handle or the motor casing with your
other hand. If you hold the circular saw in both hands, the
saw blade cannot injure them.
b) Do not reach under the workpiece. The guard hood
cannot protect you from the saw blade under the workpiece.
c) Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of the
workpiece. Less than one full tooth height should be visible
under the workpiece.
d) Never hold the workpiece you wish to saw in your hand
or on your leg. Secure the workpiece on a sturdy surface. It
is important that you secure the workpiece well to minimize
the danger of body contact, the saw blade jamming or loss
of control.
e) Hold the appliance only by the insulated handles when
carrying out work during which the cutting tool could strike
concealed power cables or its own cable. Contact with a live
cable will also make the metal parts of the appliance live and
will cause an electric shock.
f) Always use a stop or a straight edge when carrying out
longitudinal cuts. This will improve your cutting accuracy
and reduce the possibility of the saw blade jamming.
g) Always use saw blades of the correct size and with a
suitable mounting hole (diamond shaped or round). Saw
blades that do not match the mounting parts of the saw will
not rotate truly and will result in a loss of control.
h) Never use damaged or incorrect saw blade washers
or screws. The saw blade washers and screws have
been specially designed for your saw to ensure perfect
performance and operational safety.
Additional safety instructions for all saws
Causes of and ways to avoid recoil:
• A recoil is the sudden reaction resulting from a caught,
jammed or incorrectly aligned saw blade which may
result in the saw leaping out of the workpiece out of
control and towards the operator.
• If the saw blade becomes caught or jammed in closing
saw gap, it will block and the power of the motor will
cause the saw to leap backwards towards the operator.
• If the saw blade is twisted or incorrectly aligned in the cut,
the teeth in the rear saw blade edge may become caught
in the surface of the workpiece, which results in the saw
blade leaping out of the saw gap and the saw leaping
towards the operator.
A recoil is the result of incorrect or wrong use of the saw. It
can be prevented by suitable precautions, as described below.
a) Hold the saw rmly in both hands and hold your arms
in a position in which you can withstand the recoil forces.
Always hold the saw blade to one side. Never hold the
saw blade in a straight line with your body. In the event of
a recoil the circular saw may leap backwards, but the user
can still overcome the recoil forces if he has taken suitable
precautions.
b) If the saw blade jams or the sawing operating is
interrupted for another reason, release the ON/OFF switch
and hold the saw steady in the workpiece until the saw
blade has reached a complete standstill. Never attempt to
take the saw out of the workpiece or to pull it backwards
whilst the saw blade is moving or there is a possibility of a
recoil. Find the reason for the blade jamming and rectify it by
suitable means.
c) If you wish to restart a saw that is already in the
workpiece, center the saw blade in the saw gap and check
that the saw’s teeth are not caught in the workpiece. If the
saw blade is jammed it may move out of the workpiece or
cause a recoil when the saw is restarted.
d) Support large panels to reduce the risk of a recoil by a
jammed saw blade. Large panels may sag under their own
weight. Panels must be supported on both sides both near
the saw gap and also at the edge.
e) Do not use blunt or damaged saw blades. Saw blades
with blunt or incorrectly aligned teeth will create increased
friction due to the saw gap being too small. In addition the
saw blade may also jam and cause recoil.
f) Secure the cutting depth and cutting angle settings
before starting to saw. If the settings change as you are
sawing, the saw blade may jam and cause recoil.
g) Be particularly careful when carrying out a “plunge cut”
in a concealed area such as an existing wall. The plunge-
cutting saw blade may block when sawing into concealed
objects and thus cause recoil.
Safety instructions for saws with a swing guard hood
a) Check that the bottom safety hood closes perfectly
19
before using the appliance. Do not use the saw if the
bottom safety hood does not move freely and does not
close immediately. Never clamp or tie the bottom guard
hood in open position. If you drop the saw by accident the
bottom guard hood may become bent. Open the safety
hood with the lever and ensure that it moves freely and will
not come into contact with the saw blade or other parts
regardless of the cutting angle and depth.
b) Check the function of the spring on the bottom safety
hood. Have the appliance serviced before you use it if the
bottom safety hood and spring are not in perfect working
order. Damaged parts, sticky deposits or accumulations of
chips will result in the bottom guard hood working with a
delay.
c) Open the bottom safety hood by hand only for special
cuts, such as“immersion and angle cuts”. Open the bottom
safety hood using the lever and release the lever again as
soon as the saw blade has engaged in the workpiece. The
bottom safety hood must operate automatically for all other
sawing work.
d) Do not place the saw on a workbench or on the oor
unless the bottom guard hood is covering the blade. An
unprotected, moving saw blade will cause the saw to move
opposite to the sawing direction and saw through anything
in its way. Remember that the saw takes a little time to slow
down and stop.
