SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
9.
Using a rip fence or straight edge guide when ripping.
10.
Avoid cutting nails. Inspect for and remove all nails from lumber before cutting.
11.
Do not run the saw while carrying it at your side.
12.
Make certain the depth and bevel adjustments are tight and secure before
making cutting.
13.
Do not use damaged or dull blades. Unsharpened or improperly set blades
produce a too-narrow kerf, causing excessive friction, blade binding, and
kickback.
14.
Always use blades with correct-sized bore. Never use defective or incorrect
blade washers or bolts.
15.
When the blade is pinched or bound tightly by the kerf closing down, the blade
stalls and the mottor reaction drives the unit rapidly back toward the operator.
16.
If the blade becomes twisted or mis-aligned in the cut, the teeth at 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 towards the operator.
17.
Using dull blades or improperly supported work will increase the tendency for
kickback.
1.
Before using the charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings on the
charger and batterypack as well as the instructions on using the battery pack.
2.
Ensure that the power source conforms to the requirements stated on the
name plate of the charger. Only charge your batteries indoors as the charger is
designed for indoor use only.
3.
The charger and the battery packs supplied with are specifically designed to
work together. Do not attempt to charge the battery pack with another charger
than the one supplied.
4.
Pull on the plug to disconnect it from the power source. Do not pull the lead.
5.
Do not use the charger if it has been subjected to a heavy knock, dropped or
otherwise damaged in any way. Take the charger to an authorised service
centre for a check or repair.
6.
Do not disassemble the charger. Take it to an authorised service centre when
service or repair is required. Incorrect re-assembly may result in the risk of fire,
electric shock or electrocution.
DANGER:
If the battery pack is cracked damaged in any other way, do not insert
it in the charger. There is a danger of electric shock or electrocution.
WARNING:
Do not allow any liquid to come into contact with the charger. There
is a danger of electric shock.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR THE CHARGER
Keep hands away from cutting area and blades. NEVER place your
hand behind the saw blade since kickback could cause the saw to
jump backwards over your hand. Keep your body positioned to either
side of the saw blade.
DANGER:
4.
Check lower guard for proper closing before each use.
5.
Keep your free hand on the motor housing or the forward auxiliary handle,
not near the blade.
6.
Support the work properly before starting and hold the saw firmly during the
cut to prevent loss of control, which could cause personal injury.
7.
Making blind “pocket cuts” into existing walls or other hidden areas is
dangerous.
8.
When cutting is interrupted, or blade is binding, release the trigger
immediately and hold the saw firmly in the material until the blade comes to
a complete stop.
