Cutting Procedures - HIKOKI C 7U3 Handling Instructions Manual

CUTTING PROCEDURES

1. Place the base on the material, then align the premarked line and the sawblade with the
guide piece front scale section at the front of the base (Fig. 8).
When the base is not slanted, use the large cutout as the guide (Fig. 8 and Fig. 9).
If the base is slanted (45 degrees), use the small front scale as the guide
(Fig. 8 and Fig. 10).

2. Ensure that the switch is turned to the ON position before the saw blade comes in contact
with the lumber. The switch is turned ON when the trigger is squeezed; and OFF when the
trigger is released.
3. Moving the saw straight at a constant speed will produce optimum cutting.
CAUTION
Prior to cutting operation, make sure the material you are going to cut. If the
material to be cut is expected to generate harmful / toxic dusts, make sure the dust
bag or appropriate dust extraction system is connected with dust outlet tightly.
Wear the dust mask additionally, if available.
Before starting to saw, ensure that the saw blade has reached full speed
○
revolution.
Should the saw blade be stopped or made an abnormal noise during
○
operation, turn off the switch immediately.
Always take care in preventing the power cord from coming near the
○
revolving saw blade.
Using the circular saw with the saw blade facing upwards or sideways is very
○
hazardous. Such uncommon applications should be avoided.
When cutting materials, always wear protective glasses.
