[. . . ] Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool. B) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock. [. . . ] 18 | English The vibration emission level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance with a standardised test given in EN 60745 and may be used to compare one tool with another. the declared vibration emission level represents the main applications of the tool. However if the tool is used for different applications, with different accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration emission may differ. This may significantly increase the exposure level over the total working period. An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also take into account the times when the tool is switched off or when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may significantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period. Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the accessories, keep the hands warm, organisation of work patterns.

For lower voltage and models for specific countries, these values can vary. We declare under our sole responsibility that the product described under "Technical Data" is in conformity with the following standards or standardization documents: EN 60745 according to the provisions of the directives 2004/108/EC, 98/37/EC (until 28 Dec 2009), 2006/42/EC (from 29 Dec 2009). Typically the A-weighted noise levels of the product are: Sound pressure level 88 dB(A); Sound power level 99 dB(A). The splinter guard 14 (accessory) can prevent fraying of the surface while sawing wood. The splinter guard can only be used for certain saw blade types and only for cutting angles of 0°. When sawing with the splinter guard, the base plate 5 must not be moved back for cuts that are close to the edge. Selecting a Saw Blade An overview of recommended saw blades can be found at the end of these instructions. Use only T-shank saw blades or saw blades with 1/4" universal shank (U-shank). The saw blade should not be longer than required for the intended cut. Inserting the Saw Blade (see figure A1) Clean the shank of the saw blade before inserting it. Insert the saw blade 8 (teeth in cutting direction) to the stop into the saw blade holder. While inserting the saw blade, pay attention that the back of the saw blade is positioned in the groove of the guide roller 7. [. . . ] controling the Stroke Rate Increasing or reducing the pressure on the On/Off switch 2 enables stepless stroke-rate control of the switched-on machine. When the On/Off switch 2 is locked, it is not possible to reduce the stroke rate. The required stroke rate is dependent on the material and the working conditions and can be determined by a practical trial. Reducing the stroke rate is recommended when the saw blade engages in the material as well as when sawing plastic and aluminium. [. . . ]
