The hand-held circular saw is designed for sawing straight cuts in wood, in materials similar to wood, and in plastics.

4. Safety regulations

The corresponding safety information can be found in the enclosed booklet.

5. Working with the hand-held

circular saw Always hold the circular saw firmly. The hinged guard hood will be pushed back automatically by the workpiece. Never apply force! Advance the circular saw gently and steadily. The off-cut piece should be to the right of the circular saw so that the wide part of the base plate is supported over its entire surface. When sawing along a marked line, guide the circular saw along the corresponding groove. Clamp small pieces of wood securely before sawing. Never hold them in your hand. Always observe the safety regulations! Wear goggles! Do not use defective saw blades or blades with cracks or flaws. Do not use flanges or flange nuts with a hole which is larger or smaller than that of the saw blade used. Do not try to stop the saw blade with your hand or by applying pressure to the side of the blade. The hinged guard must not jam and must return to its original position once work is completed. Before plugging in the circular saw, check that the hinged guard is functioning properly. Before each use, always check that the safety devices - the hinged guard, splitter, flanges and adjustment devices - are functioning properly and have been adjusted and secured correctly. You can connect a suitable dust extractor to the guard hood. Check that the dust extractor is fitted securely and properly. The hinged guard hood is not to be wedged in the retracted guard hood when sawing.

Keep the cooling vents on the motor housing clean and unobstructed at all times. Blow out any dust and dirt at regular intervals. Have a specialist workshop check the carbon brushes in the event of excessive sparking. Worn carbon brushes are to be replaced only by a specialist workshop or by our Customer Service Centre. Keep the machine clean at all times. Never use any caustic agents to clean the plastic parts. If ever you discover any damage, consult the exploded drawing and parts list to determine exactly which replacement parts you need to order from our Customer Service Centre.
