SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING! Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions
listed below, may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
1. WORK AREA
a) Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite ac-
cidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dusts. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust
or fumes.
c) Keep by-standers, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool. Dis-
tractions can cause you to lose control.
2. ELECTRICAL SAFETY
a) A battery operated tool with integral batteries or a separate battery pack must be
recharged only with the specified charger for the battery. A charger that may be suit-
able for one type of battery may create a risk of fire when used with another battery.
b) Use battery operated tool only with specifically designated battery pack. Use of
any other batteries may create a risk of fire.
3. PERSONAL SAFETY
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a
power tool. Do not use tool while 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) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep
your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or
long hair can be caught in moving parts. Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and
grease. Rubber gloves and non-skid footwear are recommended when working outdoors.
c) Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is in the locked or “OFF” position before
inserting battery pack. Carrying tools with your finger on the switch or inserting the bat-
tery pack into a tool with the switch ON” invites accidents.
d) Remove all adjusting keys and wrenches. Make a habit of checking that adjusting keys,
wrenches, etc. are removed from the tool before turning it ON”.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and
balance enable better control of the tool in unexpected situations.
f) Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes,
hard hat, or hearing protection may be used for appropriate conditions.
g) Keep hands away from all cutting edges and moving parts.
h) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facili-
ties, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of these devices can reduce
dust-related hazards.
4. TOOL USE AND CARE
a) Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the work-piece to a
stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss
of control.
b) Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do the
0302

Cordless Circular Saw WT525
job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed. Excessive force only causes operator fatigue,
increased wear and reduced control.
c) Do not use tool if switch does not turn it “ON” or “OFF”. A tool that cannot be con-
trolled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
d) Disconnect battery pack from tool or place the switch in the LOCKED” or OFF”
position before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the
tool. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
e) Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
f) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects like: pa-
per 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 sparks, burns, or a fire.
g) Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained
tools, with sharp cutting edges, are less likely to bind and easier to control.
h) Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any
other condition that may affect the tool’s operation. If damaged, have the tool
serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.
i) Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model.
Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may create a risk of injury when used on an-
other tool.
j) Use the right tool. Do not force the tool or attachment to do a job for which it was not
designed
5. SERVICE
a) Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service or main-
tenance performed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury.
b) When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow instructions
in the Maintenance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to fol-
low Maintenance Instructions may create a risk of electric shock or injury.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES - FOR CORDLESS CIRCULAR
SAWS
WARNING! Failure to follow these rules may result in serious personal injury.
1) Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the
cutting tools may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a “livewire will
make exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator.
2) Always keep your hands away from cutting area. Do not reach under the material being
cut because the nearness of the blade to your hand is hidden from your sight.
3) Always wear eye protectors when using tool. Use a dust mask or respirator for ap-
plications which generate dust.
4) Do not use dull or damaged blades. Sharp blades will do the job better and safer. Bent
blades can break easily or cause kickback.
5) The base plate must always be held firmly against the material being cut to reduce
saw vibration, blade jumping and blade breakage.
6) Never stop the cutting blade by applying side pressure to the blade.
7) Only withdraw the blade from the cut when the blade has stopped moving.
0302
NA-WT525-M-050727.indd 3 2005-7-27 17:45:58
Cordless Circular Saw WT525
8) Do not reach underneath the work-piece while cutting. The guard cannot protect you
from the blade below the work-piece.
9) Your circular saw is a hand-held tool, do not clamp your circular saw.
10) Before cutting, check the cutting line is free of nails, screws, etc.
11) Do not cut small work-pieces with a circular saw. If possible, use a jigsaw.
12) Only use blades that the rated speed exceeds the saw no load speed.
13) Never remove the guard system. Never use the saw if the guard system does not func-
tion correctly. Never lock the moving guard open. The guard must move freely.
14) ALWAYS check lower guard to ensure proper closing before each use. Do not op-
erate saw if lower guard does not move freely and close instantly. Never clamp or
tie the lower guard in the open position. If saw is accidentally dropped, lower guard may be
bent. Raise the lower guard with the Lower Guard Lever and make sure guard moves freely
and does not touch the blade or any other part of the saw, in any angle and depth of cut.
15) Always check walls, floors and ceilings to avoid hidden power cable and pipes.
16) Do not cut material containing asbestos.
17) Do not use metal or stone saw blades. Only use wood saw blades.
18) Do not use circular saw to cut tree limbs or logs.
19) Do not use any abrasive wheels.
20) Keep your body positioned to either side of the saw, but not in-line with the saw
blade. KICKBACK could cause the saw to jump backwards.
21) Be aware that this tool is always in an operating condition because it does not
have to be plugged into an electrical outlet.
22) Disconnect battery pack from the tool or place switch in the “LOCKED” or “OFF”
position before making any assembly, adjustments or changing accessories. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
23) Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and use them to instruct others who
may use this tool. If someone borrows this tool, make sure they have these instructions.
WARNING! Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and
other construction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth
defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemical are:
• Lead from lead-based paint
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products
Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber
Your risk to these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce
your exposure to these chemicals:
Work in a well ventilated area
Work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specifically designed to
filter out microscopic particles.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: Before using the tool, read the instruction
book carefully.
KICKBACK
Further safety instructions for all saws
Causes and operator prevention of kickback:
- kickback is a sudden reaction to pinched, bound or mis-
align saw blade, causing an uncontrolled saw to lift up
and out of the work-piece toward the operator;
- when the blade is pinched or bound tightly by the kerf
closing down, the blade stalls and the motor reaction
drives the unit rapidly back toward the operator;
- if the blade becomes twisted or 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.
Kickback is the result of saw misuse and/or incorrect op-
erating 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 motion-
less 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 ac-
tions to eliminate the cause of blade binding.
c. When restarting a saw in the work-piece, 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 work-piece 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. Sup-
ports 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 teeth produce narrow kerf causing exces-
sive friction, blade binding and kickback.
f. Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking levers must be
tight and secure before making cut. If blade adjustment
shifts while cutting, it may cause binding and kickback.
NA-WT525-M-050727.indd 8 2005-7-27 17:46:03
Cordless Circular Saw WT525
g. Use extra caution when making a “pocket cutinto
existing walls or other blind areas. The protruding blade
may cut objects that can cause kickback.
POCKET CUTTING
Pocket cutting (soft materials only) This operation re-
quires much skill with a saw and must only be carried
out by a competent person.
Warning: the blade teeth are exposed during this
operation so proceed with extreme caution.
a. Clearly mark the area to be cut.
b. Set the depth of cut on the saw.
c. Position the saw over the marked area with the front
edge of the base plate resting on the work surface and
cutting guide aligned with marked line on work-piece
(See Fig 8).
d. Ensure the blade is not touching but is close to the
work surface. The moving lower guard must be rotated
open by using lever (5).
e. Switch the saw on and gently swing the blade down
into the material but maintain a pivoting force on the
front edge of the base. The moving lower guard can now
be released for normal action of the guard.
BLADE GUARDS
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 posi-
tion. 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 parts, 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 prop-
erly, they must be serviced before use. Lower guard
may operate sluggishly due to damaged parts, gummy
deposits, or a build-up of debris.
c. Lower guard should be retracted manually only
for special cuts such as “plunge cuts and “com-
pound cuts”. Raise lower guard by retracting han-
dle 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 cover-
ing 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 blade to stop after switch
is released.

1. BEFORE USING YOUR CORDLESS CIRCULAR
SAW
Your battery pack is UNCHARGED and you must charge
once before use. Your battery pack will not be fully
charged until you have performed several charge and
discharge operations by charging & working with your
saw. After this your battery pack performance will im-
prove.
Warning: The charger and battery pack are specif-
ically designed to work together so do not attempt
to use any other devices. Never insert or allow metallic
objects into your charger or battery pack connections be-
cause an electrical failure and hazard will occur.
2. HOW TO CHARGE YOUR BATTERY PACK (See
Fig 1)
1) Connect the battery charger to the power supply. The
red light will illuminate for 3 seconds and then it will go
out.
Note: If the red light flashes at a rapid rate (approx. 5
flashes per second), this means that the charger has
failed and must be replaced.
2) Fully insert the battery pack into the charger. With
a normal charging process, only the red light will illu-
minate to show charging has started. The red light will
remain on during the charging process. A discharged
battery at normal ambient temperature will take approx-
imately 1 hour to reach full charge.
Note: If the battery temperature is lower than 32ºF (0ºC),
the green light will flash slowly (approximately 2 flashes
per second). Remove the battery and allow the battery
to warm-up to a charging temperature between 36ºF to
95ºF (2ºC and 35ºC).
If the battery temperature is over 140ºF (60ºC), the green
light will flash rapidly (approximately 5 flashes per sec-
ond). Remove the battery and allow the battery to cool-
down to a charging temperature between 36ºF to 95ºF
(2ºC and 35ºC).
If the battery temperature is over 176ºF (80ºC), the charg-
ing process will be stopped, and the red light will flash
with a low speed (approximately 2 flashes per second).
The battery must be replaced.
3) When the charging is complete, only the green light
will illuminate.
Note: When the battery is under charging and its volt-
age cannot reach 4V in 2 minutes, we consider the bat-
tery to be “dead, and the red light will flash with a low
speed (approximately 2 flashes per second). Remove the

“dead” battery from the charger and replace with a new
battery.
4) When the charging process is finished, the battery is
still charging with a current 50mA.
Note: The charger timer-circuit and battery pack temper-
ature safety-cutout device prevents overcharging of the
battery pack. However, it is recommended to remove the
battery from the charger when the charging cycle has
been completed as indicated by the illumination of the
green light.
3. TO REMOVE OR INSTALL BATTERY PACK
Locate latches on side of battery pack and depress both
sides to release battery pack from your saw. Remove
battery pack from your saw. After recharge insert the
battery pack into saw’s battery port. A simple push
and slight pressure will be sufcient.
4. SAFETY ON/OFF SWITCH
Your switch is locked off to prevent accidental starting.
Depress lock off button (a) then on/off switch (b) and re-
lease lock off button (a). Your switch is now on. To switch
off just release the on/off switch (See Fig 2).
5. CHANGING A SAW BLADE
Loosen the locking lever (13) and raise the saw body
away from the base plate. Take out the Hex key (20) from
the base plate. Press the spindle lock button (9) and
use the hex key provided to remove the bolt and outer
flange. Rotate lower guard counter-clockwise and hold
open using the lever (12) while changing the saw blade.
Ensure the blade bore is located on the inner flange and
the blade direction arrow points in the same direction
as the lower guard arrow. Check that the blade surface
and flanges are clean. Press the spindle lock again and
re-fit the outer flange over the spindle flats, bolt with 1/4
turn more than finger tight. Check the blade is securely
clamped (See Fig 3).

Warning: Blade teeth are very sharp. Wear gloves
when changing saw blades. For best cutting re-
sults ensure you use a saw blade suited to the material
and cut quality you need. Ensure the blade is suitable
for the rated speed of the tool. Only use carbide-tipped
blades in this tool.
6. DEPTH OF CUT ADJUSTMENT
Lift the depth of cut locking lever (13) and raise the saw
body away from the base plate (5). Set the depth of cut
using the scale (4) and push the lever down to lock (See
Fig 4). Always add 1/8” (3mm) to your depth of cut so
the blade can cut through the material. The riving knife
automatically adjusts position when the depth of cut is
changed.
7. BASE PLATE
Adjusting the angle of the base plate (5) enables bev-
el cutting. The base plate must always be held firmly
against the material being cut to reduce saw vibration,
blade jumping or blade breakage.
8. BASE PLATE ANGLE ADJUSTMENT
Loosen the base plate bevel lock knob (14) and rotate the
base plate (5) to set the bevel angle using the base plate
angle scale (6). Then clamp the base plate (6) in position
using the lock knobs (14) (See Fig 5). Finally, check the
angle and ensure the base plate is firmly clamped. The
angle markings on the angle scale are accurate for most
general purposes but it is recommended, for accurate
work, to set the angle with a protractor and make a test
cut on other material. Do not use the depth of cut scale
when making bevel cuts due to possible inaccuracy.
9. PARALLEL GUIDE ADJUSTMENT
The parallel guide is used for making cuts parallel to a
work-piece edge at a chosen distance. Slide the paral-
lel guide (7) arm through both fixtures to achieve the
required cutting distance and tighten screw to lock into
position (See Fig 6). It can be used from both sides of
the base plate (5). The cutting distance is shown on the
guide scale and by using the 90º or 45º notch edge on
the base plate (5). Always make a trial cut to check the
setting.
10. DUST EXTRACTION OUTLET
To remove sawdust, connect a suitable external dust ex-
traction device (e.g. vacuum cleaner) to the dust extrac-
tion outlet (8) using a flexible hose connection. Ensure
the hose connection is secure.

11. DISPOSAL OF AN EXHAUSTED BATTERY PACK
To preserve natural resources, please recycle or dis-
pose of the battery pack properly. This battery pack
contains nickel-cadmium batteries. Consult your local
waste authority for information regarding available re-
cycling and/or disposal options. Discharge your battery
pack by operating your saw, then remove the battery
pack from the saw housing and cover the battery pack
connections with heavy duty adhesive tape to prevent
short circuit and energy discharge. Do not attempt to
open or remove any of the components.
WORKING HINTS FOR YOUR CIR-
CULAR SAW
a) If your power tool becomes too hot, run your circular
saw no load for 2-3 minutes to cool the motor. Avoid
prolonged usage at very low speeds.
b) Always use a blade suited to the material and material
thickness to be cut. The quality of cut will improve as the
number of blade teeth increase.
c) Always ensure the work-piece is firmly held or
clamped to prevent movement.
d) Support large panels close to the cut line. Any move-
ment of the material may affect the quality of the cut.
e) The blade cuts on the upward stroke and may chip the
uppermost surface or edges of your work piece. When
cutting, ensure your uppermost surface is a non-visible
surface when your work is finished. Feeding too fast sig-
nificantly reduces the performance of the machine and
shortens the life of the saw blade. Always face the good
side of the work-piece down, to ensure minimum splin-
tering. Only use sharp saw blades of the correct type.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
1. WHY DOES THE SAW NOT TURN ON WHEN YOU
PRESS THE SWITCH?
The safety on/off switch (b) is locked and you must de-
press the button (a) first (See Fig 2).
2. THE SAW ROTATES SLOW. WHY?
If the battery is not fully charged, recharge the battery
with the supplied battery charger.
Note: Do not charge the battery with a different charger.
Charge battery pack only with the charger provided.
3. I CANNOT FIT THE BATTERY INTO THE BAT-
NA-WT525-M-050727.indd 13 2005-7-27 17:46:08
Cordless Circular Saw WT525
1514
TERY CHARGER.WHY?
The battery can be inserted into the charger only in one
direction. Turn the battery around until it can be inserted
into the slot, the red LED light should turn on when the
battery is charging (See Fig 7.1, 7.2).
4. REASONS FOR DIFFERENT CHARGING TIMES.
Your charge time can be affected by many reasons -
which are not defects in your product. If the battery pack
is only partly discharged it may be re-charged in less than
1 hour. If the battery pack and ambient temperature are
very cold then re-charging may take 1 to 1 1/2 hours. If
the battery pack is very hot it will not re-charge because
the internal temperature safety cut-out will prevent it. If
hot you must remove your battery pack from the char-
ger and allow your battery pack to cool first to ambient
temperature and then recharging can be started. If you
charge a second battery pack immediately after the first
then the charger can be over-heated. Always allow at
least 15 minutes rest between battery pack charging.
5. REASONS FOR DIFFERENT BATTERY PACK
WORKING TIMES
Charging time problems, as above, and having not used
a battery pack for a prolonged time will reduce the bat-
tery pack working time. This can be corrected after sev-
eral charge and discharge cycles by charging & working
with your saw. Do not re-charge your battery pack below
36OF and above 95OF (2OC and above 35OC) as this will
affect performance.
MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE
Keep tools sharp and clean for better and safer perfor-
mance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing
accessories. Inspect tool cords periodically and if dam-
aged, have repaired by authorized service facility.
Your power tool requires no additional lubrication or
maintenance. There are no user serviceable parts in
your power tool. Never use water or chemical cleaners
to clean your power tool. Wipe clean with a dry cloth.
Always store your power tool in a dry place. Keep the
motor ventilation slots clean. Keep all working controls
free of dust. If you see some sparks flashing in the ven-
tilation slots, this is normal and will not damage your
power tool.

CONSIGNES DECURITÉ
AVERTISSEMENT! Lisez et assimilez toutes les instructions. Le non-respect des instruc-
tions ci-après peut entraîner un risque de choc électrique, d’incendie et/ou de blessures
graves.
CONSERVEZ CES INSTRUCTIONS
1. AIRE DE TRAVAIL
a) Veillez à ce que laire de travail soit propre et bien éclairée. Le désordre et le manque de
lumière favorisent les accidents.
b) Nutilisez pas doutils électriques dans un milieu présentant un risque dexplosion, par
exemple en présence de liquides, de gaz ou de poussières inflammables. Les outils élec-
triques créent des étincelles qui pourraient enflammer les poussières ou les vapeurs.
c) Gardez à distance les curieux, les enfants et les visiteurs lorsque vous travaillez
avec un outil électrique. Ils pourraient vous distraire et vous faire faire une fausse ma-
noeuvre.
2. SÉCURITÉ ÉLECTRIQUE
a) Un outil à pile avec piles incorporées ou un bloc-pile distinct doit être rechargé
uniquement avec le chargeur indiqué pour la pile. Un chargeur qui peut être adéquat
pour un type de pile peut créer un risque d’incendie lorsqu’il est utilisé avec une autre pile.
b) Utiliser un outil à pile uniquement avec le bloc-pile désigné spécifiquement.
L’emploi de toute autre pile peut créer un risque d’incendie.
3. SÉCURITÉ DES PERSONNES
a) Restez alerte, concentrez-vous sur votre travail et faites preuve de bon sens.
N’utilisez pas un outil électrique si vous êtes fatig ou sous l’influence de
drogues, d’alcool ou de médicaments. Un instant d’inattention lors de l’utilisation
d’outils électriques peut entraîner des blessures graves.
b) Habillez-vous convenablement. Ne portez ni vêtements flottants ni bijoux. Confi-
nez les cheveux longs. Gardez les cheveux, les vêtements et les gants éloignés des pièces
en mouvement. Les tements ottants, les bijoux ou les cheveux longs risquent d’être hap-
pés par des pièces en mouvement. Gardez les poignées sèches, propres et exemptes d’huile
et de graisse. Le port de gants en caoutchouc et de chaussures à semelle antidérapante est
recommandé si vous travaillez à l’extérieur.
c) Évitez les démarrages accidentels. Avant d’insérer la pile dans l’outil, assurez-
vous que sa détente est á la position “OFF” (Arrêt) ou verrouillée. Le fait de trans-
porter un outil avec le doigt sur la tente/l’interrupteur ou d’insérer la batterie dans un outil
dont la détente est á la position << ON >> (Marche) peut causer un accident.
d) Retirez les clés de réglage. Prenez l’habitude de vérifier si les clés de réglage et autres
outils sont retirés de l’outil avant de le mettre en marche.
e) Ne vous penchez pas trop en avant. Maintenez un bon appui et restez en équilibre
en tout temps. Une bonne stabilité vous permet de mieux réagir à une situation inatten-
due.
f) Utilisez des accessoires de sécurité. Portez toujours une protection oculaire. Selon
les conditions, portez aussi un masque antipoussière, des bottes de sécurité antidérapantes,
un casque protecteur et une protection antibruit.
g) Tenez les mains à l’écart des arrêtes tranchantes et des pièces en mouvement.
h) Si un sac de récupération de poussière et port pour aspirateur est fourni, assurez
vous qu’il est correctement relet utilide façon appropriée. L’utilisation de ce
système réduit les dangers physiques et physiologiques liés à la poussière.

4. UTILISATION ET ENTRETIEN DE L’OUTIL
a) Immobilisez le matériau travaillé sur une surface stable au moyen de serre-joints
ou de toute autre façon adéquate. Le fait de tenir la pièce avec la main ou contre votre
corps n’offre pas une stabilité insuffisante et peut entraîner une perte de contrôle de l’outil.
b) Ne forcez pas l’outil. Utilisez l’outil approprié à la tâche. L’outil approprié fonctionne
mieux et de façon plus sécuritaire. Respectez aussi la vitesse de travail qui lui est propre. Un
usage excessif, en plus de fatiguer l’utilisateur, augmentera l’usure de l’outil et rendra son
maniement plus difficile.
c) N’utilisez pas un outil si l’interrupteur ne le met pas en marche ou ne peut l’arrêter.
Un outil qui ne peut être contrôlé par l’interrupteur est dangereux et doit être réparé.
d) Débranchez le bloc-pile de l’outil ou mettez son commutateur en position << OFF
>> (Arrêt) ou <<LOCKED>> (Verrouillé) avant d’effectuer un réglage, de changer
d’accessoire ou de ranger l’outil. De telles mesures de sécurité préventive réduisent le
risque de démarrage accidentel de l’outil.
e) Rangez les outils hors de la portée des enfants et d’autres personnes inexpéri-
mentées. Les outils sont dangereux dans les mains d’utilisateurs novices.
f) Lorsque le bloc-pile n’est pas en usage, tenez-le à l’écart d’autres objets métal-
liques tels que trombones, pièces de monnaie, clés, clous, vis ou autres petits
objets métalliques susceptibles d’établir une connexion d’une borne à une autre.
Le court-circuitage des bornes de batterie peut causer des étincelles, des brûlures, une ex-
plosion ou un incendie.
g) Prenez soin de bien entretenir les outils. Les outils de coupe doivent être toujours
bien affûtés et propres. Des outils bien entretenus, dont les arrêtes sont bien tranchantes,
sont moins susceptibles de se coincer et plus faciles à contrôler.
h) Soyez attentif à tout désalignement ou coincement des pièces en mouvement,
à tout bris ou à toute autre condition préjudiciable au bon fonctionnement de
l’outil. Si vous constatez qu’un outil est endommagé, faites-le parer avant de
vous en servir. De nombreux accidents sont causés par des outils en mauvais état.
i) Utilisez seulement les accessoires recommandés par le fabricant de votre modèle.
Certains accessoires peuvent convenir à un outil, mais être dangereux avec un autre.
j) Utilisez l’outil approprié à la tâche à accomplir. Ne forcez pas l’outil ni l’accessoire en
tentant d’effectuer une tâche pour laquelle ils n’ont pas été conçus.
5. ENTRETIEN
a) L’entretien ou la réparation de loutil doit être réalisé seulement par du personnel qualié.
L’entretien ou la réparation d’un outil électrique, effectués par un amateur, peuvent avoir des
conséquences graves.
b) Pour lentretien dun outil, nemployez que des pièces de rechange identiques. Suivez les
directives fournies dans la section <<Entretien>> du présent manuel. L’emploi de pièces
non autorisées ou le non-respect des instructions d’entretien peut créer un risque de choc
électrique ou de blessures.
GLES DE CURITÉ SUPPLÉMENTAIRES POUR SCIES
CIRCULAIRE SANS CORDON
AVERTISSEMENT! La non observance de ces règles peut conduire à des blessures
graves.
1) Lors de l’exécution d’une opération au cours de laquelle l’outil de coupe peut venir
en contact avec les fils cachés ou son propre cordon, tenez l’outil par ses surfaces
NA-WT525-M-050727.indd 19 2005-7-27 17:46:11

isolées de préhension. Le contact avec un fil sous tension rendra les pièces métalliques
exposées de l’outil sous tension et causera des chocs à l’opérateur.
2) Gardez les mains à l’écart de la zone de coupe. Ne placez surtout pas la main sous le
matériau que vous coupez. Il est impossible de terminer exactement la proximité de la lame
de votre main.
3) Portez toujours des lunettes à coques latérales ou des lunettes de protection en
utilisant cet outil. Utilisez un respirateur ou un masque anti-poussières pour les
applications produisant de la poussière.
4) N’utiliser pas de lames émoussées ou endommagées. Les lames bien affûtées scient
mieux et améliorent la sécurité. Les lames pliées peuvent aisément se fracturer ou causer un
rebond.
5) La base doit être maintenue fermement contre le matériau à couper afin de réduire
les vibrations de la scie, les sauts et cassures de lame.
6) N’arrêtez jamais la scie de coupe par pression latérale sur la lame.
7) Ne retirez la scie de la pièce travaillée que lorsque la lame s’est arrêtée.
8) En travaillant, ne mettez pas vos mains sous la pièce; le garde ne protège pas de la
lame en dessous de l’ouvrage.
9) La scie circulaire est un outil à main, ne pas la fixer.
10) Avant la coupe, vérifier que la ligne de coupe est dépourvue de clous, vis, etc.
11) Ne pas couper de petites pièces avec la scie circulaire. Utiliser plutôt une scie sau-
teuse.
12) N’utilisez que des lames dont la vitesse nominale de rotation dépasse la vitesse à
vide de la scie.
13) Ne jamais enlever le système de capot protecteur. Ne jamais utiliser la scie si le sys-
tème de capot protecteur ne fonctionne pas correctement. Ne jamais verrouiller le capot mo-
bile sur la position ouverte. Le capot doit bouger librement.
14) Avant chaque emploi, vérifiez TOUJOURS si le garde-lame inférieur se ferme cor-
rectement. N’utilisez pas la scie si le garde-lame inférieur ne pivote pas librement
et ne se ferme pas instantanément. Ne fixez/attachez jamais le garde-lame inférieur en
position ouverte. Si vous échappez accidentellement a scie, le garde-lame inférieur peut se
tordre. Relevez le avec le levier detraction. Assurez-vous que le garde se déplace librement
et qu’il ne touche pas la lame ni aucune autre pièce sous tout angle et profondeur de coupe.
15) Toujours vérifier les murs, sols et plafonds afin de voir s’il existe des câbles et
tuyaux cachés.
16) Ne pas couper de matériaux contenant de l’amiante.
17) Ne pas utiliser des lames pour métal ou pierre. Utiliser uniquement des lames pour
bois.
18) Ne pas utiliser la scie circulaire pour couper des branches d’arbre ou des bûches.
19) Ne pas utiliser de meules.
20) Positionnez vous d’un côté ou de l’autre de la scie et non directement derrière
celle-ci. Un saisissement de lame pourrait projeter l’outil vers l’arrière.
21) Rappelez vous que cet outil est toujours en état de fonctionnement possible parce
qu’il ne doit pas être branché dans une prise de courant.
22) Sortez le bloc pile de l’outil ou placez son commutateur en position << OFF >> (Ar-
rêt) ou <<LOCKED>> (Verrouillé) avant d’y faire un travail quelconque, d’effectuer un
réglage ou de changer d’accessoire. Une telle mesure de curité préventive préviendra le
démarrage accidentel de l’outil.
23) Conservez ces instructions. Reportez-vous y fréquemment et utilisez-les pour informer
d’autres personnes qui pourraient utiliser cet outil. Si une autre personne utilise cet outil, as-
surez-vous de lui fournir ces instructions.
