Never use it to cut materials other than wood. Make sure that the saw blade is properly attached as described in the Operating Instructions before connecting the tool to the power source. Never point the blade towards any person since this is extremely dangerous. Make sure the power cord is well away from the material to be cut to prevent the risk of electrical shocks. Hold the saw firmly before switching it on, as inertial force could cause the saw to break free from your grasp. Always hold the saw firmly with both hands while cutting.
