5. Safety instructions

General safety instructions
m WARNING! Read all safety information and
instructions. Failure to adhere to safety informa-
tion and instructions can result in electric shock,
fire and/or serious injuries.
• Store all safety information and instructions
for future reference.
• The term "electrical tool" used in the safety instruc-
tions refers to mains-powered electrical tools (with
a mains cable) and battery-powered electrical tools
(without a mains cable).
Machine-specific safety instructions for re-
chargeable battery pack and charging unit
• This charging unit can be used by persons with re-
duced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or
with a lack of experience or knowledge, if they are
supervised or if they have been trained in the safe
use of the device and understand the resultant haz-
ards. Children must not play with or use the device.
• Do not open the rechargeable battery pack and
charging unit!
• Protect the charging unit from metal parts (e.g. met-
al chips) or liquids!
• Do not use mains power units or external battery
packs to operate the battery-powered electrical
tool. Do not use external charging units to charge
the rechargeable battery pack. The use of accesso-
ries that are not intended by the manufacturer can
lead to electric shocks and/or serious accidents.

• Protect rechargeable battery pack against heat >
50 °C, e.g. also from lasting solar radiation and fire!
• Never extinguish Li-ion battery packs with water!
Use sand or a fire blanket.
• Protect the device from moisture.
• Protect the cable from heat, oil and sharp edges.
• Regularly check the plug and cable to avoid any dan-
ger. In the event of damage, have these replaced by
an authorised customer service workshop.
m WARNING! This electric tool generates an elec-
tromagnetic field during operation. This field can im-
pair active or passive medical implants under certain
conditions. In order to prevent the risk of serious or
deadly injuries, we recommend that persons with
medical implants consult with their physician and the
manufacturer of the medical implant prior to operat-
ing the electric tool.
Machine-specific safety instructions for hand-
held circular saws
Sawing method
m DANGER! Do not place your hands in the
sawing area or on the saw blade. Hold the ad-
ditional handle or the motor housing with your
second hand. If both hands hold the circular saw,
the saw blade cannot injure them.
• Do not reach beneath the workpiece. The pro-
tective hood cannot protect you from the saw blade
beneath the workpiece.
• Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of the
workpiece. Less than one full tooth height should
be visible beneath the workpiece.
• Never hold the workpiece that is to be sawn in
the hand or over the leg. Secure the workpiece
on a stable support. It is important to fasten the
workpiece well, in order to minimise any risk of
physical contact, jamming of the saw blade or loss
of control.
• When performing work during which the elec-
trical tool can meet with concealed power lines,
take hold of the electrical tool by the insulated
handle surfaces. Contact with a live cable will also
energise the metal parts of the electrical tool and
will lead to an electric shock.
• When performing a longitudinal cut always use
a stop or a straight edge guide. This improves
the cutting accuracy and reduces the possibility of
the saw blade jamming.
• Always use the right size of saw blade and an
appropriate location hole (e.g. star-shaped or
round). Saw blades that do not fit with the mount-
ing parts of the saw will run out-of-centre and result
in a loss of control.
