binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the power tool’s

maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
• 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.

is maintained.
Additional safety rules for circular saws.
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. 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.
Always remove the plug from the mains socket before
making any adjustments or maintenance, including
changing the blade.
