occasional inconvenience of this protective
facility, as it prevents serious injuries.
l. Keep your hands away from the cutting
area. Secure the working piece with clamps.
m. Inspect the workpiece to determine the
characteristics of the material that it is made of.
In the case of wood, remove any nails, screws or
other foreign bodies. Be especially careful when
sawing branch knots.
BEFORE STARTING TO USE THE TOOL
a. Always check that the mains voltage is the
same as indicated on the type plate of your tool.
Note: A machine intended for use with 230 V
mains power supply can also be operated with
220 V; this lowers performance by approximately
10%.
b. Use of an extension cable.
You should only use extension cables that are
designed for the specied machine output. The
minimum cross-section of the wire must amount
to 1.0 mm2. If a cable drum is used, then the
cable must always be unrolled completely.

Always switch o the machine, and only lay it
down or leave it after the machine has come to a
complete standstill.
