SAFETY WARNINGSAND
INSTRUCTIONS: CIRCULAR SAWS
•
Z_CAUTION;
Remove batteries
before changing blades, inspecting,
or cleaning saw.
• KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE AND IN
WORKING ORDER.
Never wedgeor tie lower guard open.
Check operation of lower guard before
each use. Do not use if lower guard does
not close briskly over saw blade.
•
L_CAUTION:
If saw is dropped,
lower guard may be bent, restricting
full return.
Snagging the lower guard on a surface
below the material being cut can
momentarily reduce operator control. The
saw can lift partially out of the cut
increasing the chance of blade twist.
Ensure there is sufficient clearance under
the workpiece.
• LOWER GUARD
When necessary to raise lower guard
manually, use the retracting handle.
• KEEP THE BLADES CLEAN AND
SHARR
Sharp blades minimize stalling and
kickback. The use of dull and/or dirty
blades can increase the saw loading
causing the operator to push harder which
promotes twisting.
•
/_ DANGER:
KEEP HANDSAWAY
FROM CUTTING AREA.
Keep hands away from blades. Never
place hands in front or behind the path of
the blade while cutting. Do not reach
underneath work while blade is rotating. Do
not attempt to remove cut material when
blade is moving.
•
,'_CAUTION:Blades
coast after
turn off.
When cut is completed,
allow blade to stop
before removing saw. The telescoping
lower guard will close as the saw is lifted.
NOTE:This
saw is equipped with two
general purpose 3-3/8" saw blades. Cutting
particle board or plastic with these blades
is not recommended.
Large panels must be supported
as shown
(Fig. 3) in this manual to minimize the risk
of blade pinching and kickback.
Fig. 3
Correct
Support work near cut
Fig. 4
Wrong
Material bends on btade
causing heavy loads or
kickback
When cutting operation requires the resting
of the saw on the workpiece,
the saw shall
be rested on the larger portion and the
smaller piece cut off.
• USE RIP FENCE
Always use a rip fence (included with tool)
or straight edge guide when ripping.
• USE ONLY CORRECT
BLADES AND
BLADE ASSEMBLY
COMPONENTS
IN
MOUNTING
Do not use blades with incorrect size holes.
Never use defective or incorrect blade
washers or bolts. Follow blade assembly
procedures.
• SUPPORT
AND SECURE THE WORK
PROPERLY
Insure that the material to be cut is
clamped (Fig. 5) and solidly supported
and
balanced on a strong, stable and level
work set-up.
