Caution On Lithium-Ion Battery - Hitachi C 18DSL Handling Instructions Manual

English
30. WARNING: It is important to
support the work piece properly
and to hold the saw fi rmly to
prevent loss of control which
could cause personal injury. Fig. 4
illustrates typical hand support of
the saw.
31. Place the wider portion of the saw
base on that part of the work
piece which is solidly
supported, not on the
section that will fall off when
the cut is made. As
examples, Fig. 5 illustrates
the RIGHT way to cut off the
end of board, and Fig. 6 the
WRONG way. If the work piece is short or
small, clamp is down. DON'T TRY TO HOLD
SHORT PLACES BY HAND!
32. Never attempt to saw with the circular saw
held upside down in a vise. This is extremely
dangerous and can lead to serious accidents
(Fig. 7).
33. When the brake becomes ineff ective, replace
the carbon brushes with new ones.
