12 ENGLISH

5. 

Do not use dull or damaged blades.

Unsharpened or improperly set blades produce 

narrow kerf causing excessive friction, blade 

binding and kickback.

6. 

Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking levers 

must be tight and secure before making the 

cut.

 If blade adjustment shifts while cutting, it may 

cause binding and kickback.

7. 

Use extra caution when sawing into existing 

walls or other blind areas.

 The protruding blade 

may cut objects that can cause kickback.

8. 

ALWAYS hold the tool firmly with both hands. 

NEVER place your hand, leg or any part of your 

body under the tool base or behind the saw, 

especially when making cross-cuts.

 If kickback 

occurs, the saw could easily jump backwards over 

your hand, leading to serious personal injury.

9. 

Never force the saw. Push the saw forward at a 

speed so that the blade cuts without slowing.

Forcing the saw can cause uneven cuts, loss of 

accuracy, and possible kickback.

Lower guard function

1. 

Check the lower guard for proper closing 

before each use. Do not operate the saw if the 

lower guard does not move freely and close 

instantly. Never clamp or tie the lower guard 

into the open position.

 If the saw is accidentally 

dropped, the 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.

2. 

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 build-up of 

debris.

3. 

The lower guard may be retracted manually 

only for special cuts such as “plunge cuts” 

and “compound cuts”. Raise the lower guard 

by the retracting handle and as soon as the 

blade enters the material, the lower guard 

must be released.

 For all other sawing, the lower 

guard should operate automatically.

4. 

Always observe that the lower guard is cover-

ing the blade before placing the 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.

5. 

To check lower guard, open lower guard by 

hand, then release and watch guard closure. 

Also check to see that retracting handle does 

not touch tool housing.

 Leaving blade exposed 

is VERY DANGEROUS and can lead to serious 

personal injury.

Additional safety warnings

1. 

Use extra caution when cutting damp wood, 

pressure treated lumber, or wood containing 

knots.

 Maintain smooth advancement of tool with-

out decrease in blade speed to avoid overheating 

the blade tips.

2. 

Do not attempt to remove cut material when 

blade is moving. Wait until blade stops before 

grasping cut material.

 Blades coast after turn off.

3. 

Avoid cutting nails. Inspect for and remove all 

nails from lumber before cutting.

4. 

Place the wider portion of the saw base on 

that part of the workpiece which is solidly 

supported, not on the section that will fall off 

when the cut is made. If the workpiece is short 

or small, clamp it down. DO NOT TRY TO HOLD 

SHORT PIECES BY HAND!

5. 

Before setting the tool down after completing a 

cut, be sure that the guard has closed and the 

blade has come to a complete stop.

6. 

Never attempt to saw with the circular saw 

held upside down in a vise. This is extremely 

dangerous and can lead to serious accidents.

7. 

Some material contains chemicals which may 

be toxic. Take caution to prevent dust inhala-

tion and skin contact. Follow material supplier 

safety data.

8. 

Do not stop the blades by lateral pressure on 

the saw blade.

9. 

Do not use any abrasive wheels.

10. 

Only use the saw blade with the diameter that 

is marked on the tool or specified in the man

-

ual.

 Use of an incorrectly sized blade may affect 

the proper guarding of the blade or guard opera-

tion which could result in serious personal injury.

11. 

Keep blade sharp and clean.

 Gum and wood 

pitch hardened on blades slows saw and 

increases potential for kickback. Keep blade clean 

by first removing it from tool, then cleaning it with 

gum and pitch remover, hot water or kerosene. 

Never use gasoline.

12. 

Wear a dust mask and hearing protection when 

use the tool.

13. 

Always use the saw blade intended for cutting 

the material that you are going to cut.

14. 

Only use the saw blades that are marked with 

a speed equal or higher than the speed marked 

on the tool.

15. 

(For European countries only)  

Always use the blade which conforms to 

EN847-1.

16. 

Place the tool and the parts on a flat and stable 

surface.

 Otherwise the tool or the parts may fall 

and cause an injury.
