BEFORE MAKING A CUT, BE SURE THE DEPTH AND BEVEL ADJUSTMENTS

DO NOT USE BLADES WITH INCORRECT SIZE HOLES. Never use blade
washers or bolts that are defective or incorrect. The maximum blade capacity of
your saw is 7-1/4" diameter.
Inspect for and remove all nails from lumber before cutting.
DRUGS, ALCOHOL, MEDICATION. Do not operate tool while under the
influence of drugs, alcohol, or any medication.
WEAR HEARING PROTECTION DURING EXTENDED PERIODS OF OPERATION.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. Refer to them frequently and use them to
instruct third party users. If you loan someone this tool, loan them these
instructions also.
The operation of any Circular Saw can result in foreign objects being
thrown into the eyes, which can result in severe eye damage. Always
wear safety glasses or eye shields before commencing power tool opera-
tion. We recommend Wide Vision Safety Mask for use over spectacles or
standard safety glasses, available at Sears Catalog Order or Retail
Stores.
EXTENSION CORD
The use of any Extension Cord will cause some loss
of power. To keep the loss to a minimum and to pre-
vent tool overheating follow the recommended cord
sizes on the chart at the right. Extension cords
suitable for use with your circular saw-are available
at your nearest Sears Catalog Order or Retail Store.
Extension Cord Length Wire Size, A.W.G.
25-50 Ft. 16
50-100 Ft. 14
SAW BLADES
The best of saw blades will not cut efficiently if they
are not kept clean, sharp, and properly set. Using a
dull blade will place a heavy load on your saw and in-
crease the danger of kickback. Keep extra blades on
hand, so that sharp blades are always available.
Gum and wood pitch hardened on blade will slow it
down. Use gum and pitch remover Cat. No. 9-49191,
hot water, or kerosene to remove these accumula-
tions. DO NOT USE GASOLINE.
LUBRICATION -- All of the bearings in this tool are
lubricated with a sufficient amount of high grade
lubricant for the life of the unit under normal
operating conditions, therefore, no further lubrica-
tion is required.
