After long working periods external metal parts and
accessories could be hot.
•
Do not force the saw; let the tool do the work at a
reasonable speed. Overloading will occur if too much
pressure is applied and the motor slows resulting in
inefficient cutting and possible damage to the motor.
•
Always remove the battery pack before making any
adjustments or maintenance, including changing the
blade.
WARNINGS.
Before connecting a tool to a power source
(mains switch power point receptacle, outlet, etc.) be sure
that the voltage supply is the same as that specified on the
nameplate of the tool or charger. A power source with a
voltage greater than that specified for the tool can result in
serious injury to the user, as well as damage to the tool. If
in doubt, do not plug in the tool. Using a power source with
a voltage less than the nameplate rating is harmful to the
motor.
WARNINGS.
We recommend the use of a residual current
device with a residual current rating of 30mA or less.
