General Power Tool Safety

Warnings

WARNING: Read all safety

warnings and all instructions.

Failure to

follow the warnings and instructions may result

in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND

INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE

REFERENCE

The term “power tool” in the warnings refers

to your mains-operated (corded) power tool

or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

1) WORK AREA SAFETY

a) Keep work area clean and well

lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite

accidents.

b) Do not operate power tools in

explosive atmospheres, such

as in the presence of flammable

liquids, gases or dust. Power tools

create sparks which may ignite the

dust or fumes.

c) Keep children and bystanders

away while operating a power

tool. Distractions can cause you to

lose control.

2) ELECTRICAL SAFETY

a) Power tool plugs must match the

outlet. Never modify the plug in

any way. Do not use any adapter

plugs with earthed (grounded)

power tools. Unmodified plugs and

matching outlets will reduce risk of

electric shock.

b) Avoid body contact with earthed

or grounded surfaces such as

pipes, radiators, ranges and

refrigerators. There is an increased

risk of electric shock if your body is

earthed or grounded.

c) Do not expose power tools to rain

or wet conditions. Water entering

a power tool will increase the risk of

electric shock.

d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use

the cord for carrying, pulling or

unplugging the power tool. Keep

cord away from heat, oil, sharp

edges or moving parts. Damaged

or entangled cords increase the risk

of electric shock.

e) When operating a power tool

outdoors, use an extension cord

suitable for outdoor use. Use of a

cord suitable for outdoor use reduces

the risk of electric shock.

f) If operating a power tool in a damp

location is unavoidable, use a

ground fault circuit interrupter

(GFCI) protected supply. Use of a

GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.

3) PERSONAL SAFETY

a) Stay alert, watch what you are

doing and use common sense

when operating a power tool. Do

not use a power tool while you

are tired or under the influence

of drugs, alcohol or medication.

A moment of inattention while

operating power tools may result in

serious personal injury.

b) Use personal protective

equipment. Always wear eye

protection. Protective equipment

such as dust mask, nonskid safety

shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection

used for appropriate conditions will

reduce personal injuries.

c) Prevent unintentional starting.

Ensure the switch is in the off

position before connecting to

power source and/ or battery

pack, picking up or carrying the

tool. Carrying power tools with your

finger on the switch or energizing

power tools that have the switch on

invites accidents.

d) Remove any adjusting key or

wrench before turning the power

tool on. A wrench or a key left

attached to a rotating part of the power

tool may result in personal injury.

SAFETY GUIDELINES - DEFINITIONS

It is important for you to read and understand this manual. The information it contains

relates to protecting YOUR SAFETY and PREVENTING PROBLEMS. The symbols

below are used to help you recognize this information.

DANGER: Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will

result in death or serious injury.

WARNING: Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,

could result in death or serious injury.

CAUTION: Indicates a potentially haz ard ous situation which, if not avoided, may

result in minor or mod er ate injury.

NOTICE: Used without the safety alert symbol indicates potentially hazardous

situation which, if not avoided, may result in property damage.

e) Do not overreach. Keep proper

footing and balance at all times.

This enables better control of the

power tool in unexpected situations.

f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose

clothing or jewelry. Keep your

hair, clothing and gloves away

from moving parts. Loose clothes,

jewelry or long hair can be caught in

moving parts.

g) If devices are provided for the

connection of dust extraction and

collection facilities, ensure these

are connected and properly used.

Use of dust collection can reduce

dust-related hazards.

4) POWER TOOL USE AND CARE

a) Do not force the power tool. Use

the correct power tool for your

application. The correct power tool

will do the job better and safer at the

rate for which it was designed.

b) Do not use the power tool if the

switch does not turn it on and

off. Any power tool that cannot

be controlled with the switch is

dangerous and must be repaired.

c) Disconnect the plug from the

power source and/or the battery

pack from the power tool before

making any adjustments,

changing accessories, or storing

power tools. Such preventive safety

measures reduce the risk of starting

the power tool accidentally.

d) Store idle power tools out of

the reach of children and do not

allow persons unfamiliar with the

power tool or these instructions

to operate the power tool. Power

tools are dangerous in the hands of

untrained users.

e) Maintain power tools. Check

for misalignment or binding of

moving parts, breakage of parts

and any other condition that may

affect the power tool’s operation.

If damaged, have the power

tool repaired before use. Many

accidents are caused by poorly

maintained power tools.

f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.

Properly maintained cutting tools with

sharp cutting edges are less likely to

bind and are easier to control.

g) Use the power tool, accessories

and tool bits, etc. in accordance

with these instructions, taking into

account the working conditions

and the work to be performed.

Use of the power tool for operations

different from those intended could

result in a hazardous situation.

5) BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE

a) Recharge only with the charger

specified by the manufacturer. A

charger that is suitable for one type of

battery pack may create a risk of fire

when used with another battery pack.

b) Use power tools only with

specifically designated battery

packs. Use of any other battery packs

may create a risk of injury and fire.

c) When battery pack is not in use,

keep it away from other metal

objects like paper clips, coins,

keys, nails, screws, or other small

metal objects that can make a

connection from one terminal

to another. Shorting the battery

terminals together may cause burns

or a fire.

d) Under abusive conditions, liquid

may be ejected from the battery,

avoid contact. If contact accidentally

occurs, flush with water. If liquid

contacts eyes, additionally seek

medical help. Liquid ejected from the

battery may cause irritation or burns.

6) SERVICE

a) Have your power tool serviced by

a qualified repair person using

only identical replacement parts.

This will ensure that the safety of the

power tool is maintained.

Safety Instructions for

All Saws

DANGER: Keep hands away from

cutting area and the blade. Keep

your second hand on auxiliary

handle or motor housing. If both

hands are holding the saw, they cannot

be cut by the blade.

b) Do not reach underneath the

workpiece. The guard cannot protect

you from the blade below the workpiece.

c) Adjust the cutting depth to the

thickness of the workpiece. Less than

a full tooth of the blade teeth should be

visible below the workpiece.

d) Never hold piece being cut in your

hands or across your leg. Secure the

workpiece to a stable platform. It is

important to support the work properly

to minimize body exposure, blade

binding, or loss of control.

e) Hold power tool by insulated

gripping surfaces when performing

an operation where the cutting tool

may contact hidden wiring. Contact

with a “live” wire will also make exposed

metal parts of the power tool “live” and

shock the operator.

f) When ripping always use a rip

fence or straight edge guide. This

improves the accuracy of cut and

reduces the chance of blade binding.

g) Always use blades with correct

size and shape (diamond versus

round) of arbour holes. Blades that do

not match the mounting hardware of the

saw will run eccentrically, causing loss

of control.

h) Never use damaged or incorrect

blade washers or bolt. The blade

washers and bolt were specially

designed for your saw, for optimum

performance and safety of operation.

Causes and Operator

Prevention of Kickback:



pinched, bound or misaligned saw

blade, causing an uncontrolled saw to

tightly by the kerf closing down, the

blade stalls and the motor reaction drives

the unit rapidly back toward the operator.



misaligned in the cut, the teeth at the

back edge of the blade can dig into the

top surface of the wood causing the

blade to climb out of the kerf and jump

back toward the operator.



and/or incorrect operating procedures or

conditions and can be avoided by taking

proper precautions as given below:

a) Maintain a firm grip with both

hands on the saw and position

your arms to resist kickback forces.

Position your body to either side of

the blade, but not in line with the

blade. Kickback could cause the saw

to jump backwards, but kickback forces

can be controlled by the operator, if

proper precautions are taken.

b) When blade is binding, or when

interrupting a cut for any reason,

release the trigger and hold the

saw motionless in the material until

the blade comes to a complete

stop. Never attempt to remove

the saw from the work or pull the

saw backward while the blade is

in motion or kickback may occur.

Investigate and take corrective actions

to eliminate the cause of blade binding.

c) When restarting a saw in the

workpiece, center the saw blade in

the kerf and check that saw teeth

are not engaged into the material. If

saw blade is binding, it may walk up or

kickback from the workpiece as the saw

is restarted.

d) Support large panels to minimize

the risk of blade pinching and

kickback. Large panels tend to sag

under their own weight. Supports must

be placed under the panel on both

sides, near the line of cut and near the

edge of the panel.

e) Do not use dull or damaged blades.

Unsharpened or improperly set blades

produce narrow kerf causing excessive

friction, blade binding and kickback.

f) Blade depth and bevel adjusting

locking knobs must be tight and

secure before making cut. If blade

adjustment shifts while cutting, it may

cause binding and kickback.

g) Use extra caution when sawing

into existing walls or other blind

areas. The protruding blade may cut

objects that can cause kickback.

Lower Guard Safety

Instructions

a) Check lower guard for proper

closing before each use. Do not

operate the saw if lower guard does

not move freely and close instantly.

Never clamp or tie the lower guard

into the open position. If saw is

accidentally dropped, lower guard may

be bent. Raise the lower guard with

the retracting handle and make sure it

moves freely and does not touch the

blade or any other part, in all angles and

depths of cut.

b) Check the operation of the lower

guard spring. If the guard and the

spring are not operating properly,

they must be serviced before use.

Lower guard may operate sluggishly

due to damaged parts, gummy deposits,

or a buildup of debris.

c) Lower guard should be retracted

manually only for special cuts such

as “plunge cuts” and “compound

cuts.” Raise lower guard by retracting

handle and as soon as blade enters

the material, the lower guard must be

released. For all other sawing, the lower

guard should operate automatically.

d) Always observe that the lower

guard is covering the blade before

placing saw down on bench or floor.

An unprotected, coasting blade will

cause the saw to walk backwards,

cutting whatever is in its path. Be aware

of the time it takes for the blade to stop

after switch is released.

Additional Safety

Instructions

Use clamps or another practical

way to secure and support the

workpiece to a stable platform.

Holding the work by hand or against

your body leaves it unstable and may

lead to loss of control.

Keep your body positioned to either

side of the blade, but not in line

with the saw blade. KICKBACK could

cause the saw to jump backwards (see

Causes and Operator Prevention of

Kickback and KICKBACK).

Avoid cutting nails. Inspect for and

remove all nails from lumber before

cutting.

Always make sure nothing

interferes with the movement of the

lower blade guard.

Accessories must be rated for at

least the speed recommended on the

tool warning label. Wheels and other

accessories running over rated speed

can fly apart and cause injury. Accessory

ratings must always be above tool speed

as shown on tool nameplate.

Always make sure the saw is clean

before using.

Stop using this saw and have it

properly serviced if any unusual noise

or abnormal operation occurs.

Always be sure all components are

mounted properly and securely before

using tool.

Always handle the saw blade with

care when mounting or removing it or

when removing the diamond knockout.

Always wait until the motor has

reached full speed before starting a cut.

Always keep handles dry, clean and

free of oil and grease. Hold the tool

firmly with both hands when in use.

Always be alert at all times, especially

during repetitive, monotonous

operations. Always be sure of position

of your hands relative to the blade.

Stay clear of end pieces that may fall

after cutting off. They may be hot, sharp

and/or heavy. Serious personal injury

may result.

Replace or repair damaged cords.

Make sure your extension cord is

in good condition. Use only 3-wire

extension cords that have 3-prong

grounding-type plugs and 3-pole

receptacles that accept the tool’s plug.

An extension cord must have

adequate wire size (AWG or

American Wire Gauge) for safety. The

smaller the gauge number of the wire,

the greater the capacity of the cable,

that is 16 gauge has more capacity

than 18 gauge. An undersized cord will

cause a drop in line voltage resulting

in loss of power and overheating.

terminals. For example, do not place

battery in aprons, pockets, tool boxes,

product kit boxes, drawers, etc., with loose

nails, screws, keys, etc.

Transporting batteries can possibly

cause fires if the battery terminals

inadvertently come in contact with

conductive materials such as keys,

coins, hand tools and the like. The US

Department of Transportation Hazardous

Material Regulations (HMR) actually

prohibit transporting batteries in commerce

or on airplanes (i.e., packed in suitcases

and carry-on luggage) UNLESS they are

properly protected from short circuits.

So when transporting individual batteries,

make sure that the battery terminals

are protected and well insulated from

materials that could contact them and

cause a short circuit. NOTE: Batteries

should not be put in checked baggage.

STORAGE RECOMMENDATIONS

1. The best storage place is one that is

cool and dry away from direct sunlight and



2. Long storage will not harm the battery

pack or charger.

WALL MOUNTING

packs. Charge times are: PCC690L and

PCC692L in 35-100 mins., PCC691L

in 65-200 mins., and PCC695L in 160-

300 mins. depending on the pack being

charged.

1. Plug the charger into an appropriate

outlet before inserting the battery pack.

2. Insert the battery pack into the charger.

LOWER BLADE GUARD

WARNING: Laceration Hazard. The

lower blade guard is a safety feature

which reduces the risk of serious

personal injury. Never use the saw if the

lower guard is missing, damaged, mis-

assembled or not working properly. Do

not rely on the lower blade guard to

protect you under all circumstances.

Your safety depends on following all

warnings and precautions as well as

proper operation of the saw. Check

lower guard for proper closing before

each use as outlined in Additional

Safety Rules for Circular Saws. If the

lower blade guard is missing or not

working properly, have the saw serviced

before using. To assure product safety

and reliability, repair, maintenance and

adjustment should be performed by an

authorized service center or other

qualified service organization, always

using identical replacement parts.

WARNING: To minimize the risk of

eye injury, always use eye protection.

Carbide is a hard but brittle material.

Foreign objects in the work piece such as

wireGor nails can cause tips to crack or

break. Only operate saw when proper saw

blade guard is in place. Mount blade

securely in proper rotation before using, and

always use a clean, sharp blade.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of

injury, It is important to support the

work properly and to hold the saw firmly

to prevent loss of control which could

cause personal injury. Figure G

illustrates typical hand support.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of

serious personal injury, read,

understand and follow all important

safety warnings and instructions prior

to using tool.

BLADE SELECTION

Your circular saw is designed for use

with 5-1/2 inch (140 mm) diameter

blades that have a 3/8 inch (10 mm)

diameter bore. Blades must be rated for

6000 RPM operation (or higher). DO NOT

use any abrasive wheels.

GENERAL CUTS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of

injury

, remove the battery, and follow all

assembly, adjustment and set up

instructions.

Make sure lower guard operates. Select the

proper blade for the material to be cut.

Avertissements de sécurité

généraux pour les outils

électriques

AVERTISSEMENT : Lire tous

les avertissements de sécurité et

toutes les directives. 

des avertissements et des directives

pourrait se solder par un choc

électrique, un incendie et/ou une

blessure grave.

Conserver tous les avertissements

et toutes les directives pour un

usage ultérieur.

Le terme «outil électrique» cité dans

les avertissements se rapporte à votre

outil électrique à alimentation sur

secteur (avec fil) ou par piles (sans fil).

1) Sécurité du lieu de travail

a) Tenir la zone de travail propre et

bien éclairée. Les endroits sombres

sont souvent des causes d’accidents.

b) Ne pas faire fonctionner d’outils

électriques dans un milieu

déflagrant, soit en présence de

liquides inflammables, de gaz ou

de poussière. Les outils électriques

produisent des étincelles qui peuvent

enflammer la poussière ou les vapeurs.

c) Éloigner les enfants et les curieux

au moment d’utiliser un outil

électrique. Une distraction pourrait

vous en faire perdre la maîtrise.

2) Sécurité en matière d’électricité

a) Les fiches des outils électriques

doivent correspondre à la prise.

Ne jamais modifier la fiche en

aucune façon. Ne jamais utiliser

de fiche d’adaptation avec un outil

électrique mis à la terre. Le risque

de choc électrique sera réduit par

l’utilisation de fiches non modifiées

correspondant à la prise.

b) Éviter tout contact physique

avec des surfaces mises à la

terre comme des tuyaux, des

radiateurs, des cuisinières et des

réfrigérateurs. Le risque de choc

électrique est plus élevé si votre

corps est mis à la terre.

c) Ne pas exposer les outils

électriques à la pluie ou à d’autres

conditions où il pourrait être

mouillé. La pénétration de l’eau dans

un outil électrique augmente le risque

de choc électrique.

d) Ne pas utiliser abusivement le

cordon d’alimentation. Ne jamais

utiliser le cordon pour transporter,

tirer ou débrancher un outil

électrique. Tenir le cordon éloigné

de la chaleur, de l’huile, des bords

tranchants ou des pièces mobiles.

Les cordons endommagés ou

emmêlés augmentent les risques de

choc électrique.

e) Pour l’utilisation d’un outil

électrique à l’extérieur, se servir

d’une rallonge convenant à une

telle utilisation. L’utilisation d’une

rallonge conçue pour l’extérieur réduit

les risques de choc électrique.

f) S’il est impossible d’éviter

l’utilisation d’un outil électrique

dans un endroit humide, brancher

l’outil dans une prise ou sur un

circuit d’alimentation dotés d’un

disjoncteur de fuite à la terre (GFCI).

L’utilisation de ce type de disjoncteur

réduit les risques de choc électrique.

3) Sécurité personnelle

a) Être vigilant, surveiller le travail

effectué et faire preuve de jugement

lorsqu’un outil électrique est utilisé.

Ne pas utiliser d’outil électrique en

cas de fatigue ou sous l’influence

de drogues, d’alcool ou de

médicaments. Un simple moment

LIGNES DIRECTRICES EN MATIÈRE DE SÉCURITÉ - DÉFINITIONS

Il est important que vous lisiez et compreniez ce mode d’emploi. Les informations qu’il contient

concernent VOTRE SÉCURITÉ et visent à ÉVITER TOUT PROBLÈME. Les symboles

DANGER : Indique une situation dangereuse imminente qui, si elle n’est pas évitée,

causera la mort ou des graves blessures.

AVERTISSEMENT : Indique une situation potentiellement

dangereuse qui, si elle n’est pas évitée, pourrait causer la mort ou de graves blessures.

MISE EN GARDE : Indique une situation potentiellement dangereuse qui, si elle n’est

pas évitée, pourrait causer des blessures mineures ou modérées.

AVIS : Utilisé sans le symbole d’alerte à la sécurité, indique une situation potentiellement

dangereuse qui, si elle n’est pas évitée, peut résulter en des dommages à la propriété.

d’inattention en utilisant un outil

électrique peut entraîner des blessures

corporelles graves.

b) Utiliser des équipements de

protection individuelle. Toujours

porter une protection oculaire.

L’utilisation d’équipements de protection

comme un masque antipoussière, des

chaussures antidérapantes, un casque

de sécurité ou des protecteurs auditifs

lorsque la situation le requiert réduira les

risques de blessures corporelles.

c) Empêcher les démarrages

intempestifs. S’assurer que

l’interrupteur se trouve à la position

d’arrêt avant de relier l’outil à

une source d’alimentation et/ou

d’insérer un bloc-piles, de ramasser

ou de transporter l’outil. Transporter

un outil électrique alors que le doigt

repose sur l’interrupteur ou brancher

un outil électrique dont l’interrupteur

est à la position de marche risque de

provoquer un accident.

d) Retirer toute clé de réglage ou clé

standard avant de démarrer l’outil.

Une clé standard ou une clé de réglage

attachée à une partie pivotante peut

causer des blessures.

e) Ne pas trop tendre les bras.

Conserver son équilibre en tout

temps. Cela permet de mieux

maîtriser l’outil électrique dans les

situations imprévues.

f) S’habiller de manière appropriée.

Ne pas porter de vêtements amples

ni de bijoux. Garder les cheveux,

les vêtements et les gants à l’écart

des pièces mobiles. Les vêtements

amples, les bijoux ou les cheveux

longs risquent de rester coincés dans

les pièces mobiles.

g) Si des composants sont fournis

pour le raccordement de dispositifs

de dépoussiérage et de ramassage,

s’assurer que ceux-ci sont bien

raccordés et utilisés. L’utilisation

d’un dispositif de dépoussiérage peut

réduire les dangers

engendrés par les poussières.

4) Utilisation et entretien d’un outil

électrique

a) Ne pas forcer un outil électrique.

Utiliser l’outil électrique approprié

à l’application. L’outil électrique

approprié effectuera un meilleur

travail, de façon plus sûre et à la

vitesse pour laquelle il a été conçu.

b) Ne pas utiliser un outil électrique

dont l’interrupteur est défectueux.

Tout outil électrique dont l’interrupteur

est défectueux est dangereux et doit

être réparé.

c) Débrancher la fiche du secteur ou

le bloc-piles de l’outil électrique

avant de faire tout réglage ou

changement d’accessoire, ou avant

de ranger l’outil électrique. Ces

mesures préventives réduisent les

risques de démarrage accidentel de

l’outil électrique.

d) Ranger les outils électriques

hors de la portée des enfants, et

ne permettre à aucune personne

n’étant pas familière avec un

outil électrique (ou son manuel

d’instruction) d’utiliser ce dernier.

Les outils électriques deviennent

dangereux entre les mains

d’utilisateurs inexpérimentés.

e) Entretenir les outils électriques.

Vérifier les pièces mobiles pour

s’assurer qu’elles sont bien

alignées et tournent librement,

qu’elles sont en bon état et ne

sont affectées par aucun trouble

susceptible de nuire au bon

fonctionnement de l’outil

électrique. En cas de dommage,

faire réparer l’outil

électrique avant toute nouvelle

utilisation. Beaucoup d’accidents

sont causés par des outils électriques

mal entretenus.

f) S’assurer que les outils de coupe

sont aiguisés et propres. Les outils de

coupe bien entretenus et affûtés sont

moins susceptibles de se coincer et sont

plus faciles à contrôler.

g) Utiliser l’outil électrique, les

accessoires, les forets, etc.

conformément aux présentes

directives en tenant compte des

conditions de travail et du travail

à effectuer. L’utilisation d’un outil

électrique pour toute opération autre

que celle pour laquelle il a été conçu

est dangereuse.

5) Utilisation et entretien du bloc-piles

a) Ne recharger l’outil qu’au moyen du

chargeur précisé par le fabricant.

L’utilisation d’un chargeur qui convient

à un type de bloc-piles risque de

provoquer un incendie s’il est utilisé

avec un autre type de bloc-piles.

b) Utiliser les outils électriques

uniquement avec les blocs-piles

conçus à cet effet. L’utilisation de tout

autre bloc-piles risque de causer des

blessures ou un incendie.

c) Lorsque le bloc-piles n’est pas

utilisé, le tenir éloigné des objets

métalliques, notamment des

trombones, de la monnaie, des clés,

des clous, des vis, etc., qui peuvent

établir une connexion entre les deux

1717

bornes. Le court-circuit des bornes

du bloc-piles risque de provoquer des

étincelles, des brûlures ou un incendie.

d) En cas d’utilisation abusive, le

liquide peut gicler hors du bloc-

piles, éviter tout contact. Si un

contact accidentel se produit, laver

à grande eau. Si le liquide entre en

contact avec les yeux, obtenir des

soins médicaux. Le liquide qui gicle

hors du bloc-piles peut provoquer des

irritations ou des brûlures.

6) Réparation

a) Faire réparer l’outil électrique

par un réparateur professionnel

en n’utilisant que des pièces

de rechange identiques. Cela

permettra de maintenir une utilisation

sécuritaire de l’outil électrique.

RÈGLES DE SÉCURITÉ

SPÉCIFIQUES

SUPPLÉMENTAIRES

CONSIGNES DE SÉCURITÉ POUR

TOUTES LES SCIES

DANGER :

a. Gardez les mains à distance de

la zone de coupe et de la lame.

Gardez une de vos mains sur la

poignée auxiliaire ou sur le carter du

moteur. Si vous tenez la scie de vos

d. Ne tenez jamais dans vos mains

ou sur vos genoux un ouvrage qui

est en cours de coupe. Fixez votre

ouvrage sur une plateforme stable. Il

est important de soutenir correctement

du corps à la lame, le risque de

coincement de la lame ou la perte de

contrôle de l’outil.

e. Tenez l’outil électrique par ses

surfaces de préhension isolantes

quand vous réalisez une opération

au cours de laquelle l’outil de

coupe pourrait entrer en contact

avec des câbles dissimulés ou

avec son propre cordon électrique.

Le contact avec un fil sous tension

mettra également sous tension toutes



et donnera un choc électrique à

l’utilisateur de l’outil.

f. Pendant les coupes de refente,

utilisez toujours un guide de refente

ou un guide à bord droit. Ceci

coincement de la lame.

g. Utilisez toujours des lames dont

l’alésage central est de la taille et

de la forme appropriées (soit en

forme de diamant, soit en forme de

rond). Les lames qui ne correspondent

causera une perte de contrôle de l’outil.

h. Ne vous servez jamais de rondelles

ou de boulons de lames qui sont

endommagés ou inappropriés. Les

rondelles et le boulon de lame ont été

conçus spécifiquement pour votre scie

dans le but d’assurer une performance

optimale et un fonctionnement sans

danger.

CAUSES DES REBONDS ET

MÉTHODES DE PRÉVENTION

POUVANT ÊTRE UTILISÉES

PAR L’UTILISATEUR :

 Le rebond est une réaction subite

(causée par une lame de scie pincée,

coincée ou mal alignée) qui peut



contrôlée, sa sortie de l’ouvrage et sa

projection en direction de l’utilisateur.

 Si la lame est pincée ou coincée

fortement pendant l’abaissement de la

scie, la lame se cale et le moteur réagit



l’arrière dans la direction de l’opérateur.

 Si la lame se tord ou perd son

alignement correct au cours de la coupe,

les dents sur le bord arrière de la lame

peuvent entamer la surface supérieure

du bois, forçant ainsi la lame à sortir du

trait de scie et à « sauter » vers l’arrière

en direction de l’opérateur.

Le rebond est la conséquence d’une

mauvaise utilisation de la scie et/ou de

procédures ou de conditions incorrectes,





a. Maintenez fermement la scie avec

vos deux mains et positionnez vos

bras de façon à résister aux forces

de rebond. Les forces de rebond



quand les précautions appropriées

sont prises.

b. En cas de coincement de la lame

ou d’interruption d’une coupe pour

une raison quelconque, relâchez la

gâchette et tenez la scie immobile

dans l’ouvrage jusqu’à ce que la lame

se soit immobilisée complètement.

Ne tentez jamais de retirer la scie

de l’ouvrage ou de la tirer vers

l’arrière pendant que la lame est en

mouvement, car un rebond risquerait

de se produire. Évaluez la situation

et prenez les mesures correctives

nécessaires pour éliminer la cause du

coincement de la lame.

c. Lorsque vous remettez une scie en

marche quand l’ouvrage est présent,

centrez la lame de scie dans le trait

de scie et vérifiez que les dents de la

lame ne sont pas engagées dans le

matériau de l’ouvrage. Si la lame de

scie se coince, elle peut grimper hors



quand la scie est remise en marche.

d. Soutenez les panneaux de grande

f. Les leviers de réglage de la

profondeur et de l’angle de coupe

de la lame doivent être bien serrés

et assujettis avant de réaliser une

coupe. Une modification du réglage

de la lame pendant la coupe risque

CONSIGNES DE SÉCURITÉ

RELATIVES AU PROTÈGE-LAME

INFÉRIEUR

a. Inspectez le protège-lame inférieur

avant chaque utilisation pour vous

assurer qu’il se ferme correctement.

Ne faites pas fonctionner la scie si le

protège-lame inférieur ne se déplace

pas librement et ne se ferme pas

instantanément. Ne forcez jamais le

ne fonctionnent pas correctement,

ils doivent être réparés avant

l’emploi.

peut parfois mal fonctionner à cause de

pièces endommagées, d’accumulation

de résine ou de débris.

c. Le protège-lame inférieur doit être

rétracté à la main uniquement à

l’occasion de coupes spéciales

telles que les « coupes en plongée

» ou les « coupes composées ».

Soulevez le protège-lame inférieur

à l’aide la poignée rétractable et

une rallonge de calibre adéquat (AWG

ou American Wire Gauge [calibrage

américain normalisé des fils]). Plus le

numéro de calibre de fil est petit et plus



un calibre 16 a plus de capacité qu’un

calibre 18. Une rallonge de calibre

inférieur causera une chute de tension de

ligne et donc une perte de puissance et

une surchauffe. Si plus d’une rallonge est

utilisée pour obtenir la longueur totale,

s’assurer que chaque rallonge présente

au moins le calibre de fil minimum.

Le tableau suivant indique le calibre

approprié à utiliser selon la longueur de

la rallonge et l’intensité nominale de la

plaque signalétique. En cas de doute,

utiliser le calibre suivant le plus gros.

Plus le numéro de calibre est petit, plus le

cordon est lourd.

ATTENTION : La lame après l’éteindre.

Des blessures graves peuvent en résulter.

AVERTISSEMENT : Toujours

porter une protection auditive appropriée

conformément à la norme ANSI S12.6

(S3.19) lors de l’utilisation du produit.

Dans certaines conditions et selon la durée

d’utilisation, le bruit émis par ce produit

pourrait contribuer à une perte auditive.

AVERTISSEMENT : Toujours

utiliser une protection oculaire appropriée.

Tous les utilisateurs et les spectateurs

doivent porter des lunettes de protection

conforme à la norme ANSI Z87.1.

AVERTISSEMENT : TOUJOURS

porter des lunettes de sécurité. Les lunettes

de vue ne constituent PAS des lunettes de

sécurité. Utiliser également un masque facial

ou anti-poussière si l’opération de découpe

génère de la poussière. TOUJOURS

PORTER UN ÉQUIPEMENT DE

PROTECTION HOMOLOGUÉ :

• protection oculaire conforme à la norme

ANSI Z87.1 (CAN/CSA Z94.3);

• protection auditive ANSI S12.6 (S3.19);

• protection des voies respiratoires conformes

aux normes NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA.

AVERTISSEMENT : certains

outils électriques, tels que les

sableuses, les scies, les meules, les

perceuses ou certains autres outils de

construction, peuvent produire de la

poussière contenant des produits

chimiques reconnus par l’État de la

Californie comme étant susceptibles

d’entraîner le cancer, des

malformations congénitales ou

pouvant être nocifs pour le système

reproductif. Parmi ces produits

chimiques, on retrouve :

· le plomb dans les peintures à base de

plomb,

· la silice cristalline dans les briques et le

ciment et autres produits de maçonnerie,

· l’arsenic et le chrome dans le bois de

sciage ayant subi un traitement chimique.

Le risque associé à de telles expositions

varie selon la fréquence avec laquelle

on effectue ces travaux. Pour réduire

l’exposition à de tels produits, il faut

travailler dans un endroit bien aéré

et utiliser le matériel de sécurité

approprié, tel un masque anti-poussières

spécialement conçu pour filtrer les

particules microscopiques.
