ADDITIONAL SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
a) DANGER: Keep hands away from cutting area
and the blade. Keep your second hand on the
auxiliary handle, or motor housing. If both hands
are holding the saw, they cannot come into contact
with the blade.
b) Do not reach underneath the workpiece. The
guard cannot protect you from the blade below the
workpiece.
c) 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.
d) Never hold the piece being cut in your hands
or across your legs. 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.
e) Hold the power tool by the insulated gripping
surfaces 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
shock the operator.
f) When ripping always use a rip fence or straight
edge guide. This improves the accuracy of the cut
and reduces the chance of the blade binding.
g) Always use blades with correct size and shape
(diamond versus round) of arbor holes. Blades
that do not match the mounting hardware of
the saw will run eccentrically, causing loss of
control.
h) Never use damaged or incorrect blade
washers or bolt. The blade washers, anges
and bolt were specially designed for your saw, for
optimum performance and safety of operation.
Replace with genuine spare parts if damaged or
worn.
i) Do not use High Speed Steel (HSS) saw blades
k) Inspect the machine and the blade before
each use. Do not use deformed, cracked, worn
or otherwise damaged blades.
l) Never use the saw without the original guard
protection system. Do not lock the moving guard
in the open position. Ensure that the guard operates
freely without jamming.
m) Only use blades that comply with the
characteristics specied in this manual. Before
using accessories, always compare the maximum
allowed RPM of the accessory with the RPM of the
machine.

The declared vibration total value has been
measured in accordance with a standard test
method and may be used for comparing one tool
with another.
The declared vibration total value may also be used
in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
WARNING: The vibration emission during actual use of
the power tool can differ from the declared total value
depending on the ways in which the tool is used. The
need to identify safety measures and to protect the
operator are based on an estimation of exposure in the
actual conditions of use (taking account of all parts of the
operating cycle, such as the times the tool is switched
off, when it is running idle, in addition to trigger time).
