4. Always observe that the guard is covering the

blade before placing saw down on bench or

oor. 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 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!

►Fig.5

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.

►Fig.6

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 specied 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rst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
