HOW TO USE

1. Operation of switch (Fig. 21)
(switch trigger and light switch)
(1) For safe operation of the machine, a “switch lock”
is provided on the side of a handle.
If the “switch trigger” is pulled in a state where
“switch lock” is pressed in the direction of the
arrow mark, the main switch can be turned ON.
And the “switch lock” is used as the “light switch”.
If the “switch lock (light switch)” is pressed in a
state, the light is turned ON.
(2) After the switch is turned ON, even when you
release your hand from the switch lock, the body
continues running and the light continues being
turned ON as long as you keep on pulling the
switch trigger.
(3) If you release the switch trigger, you can turn OFF
the switch and the “switch lock” returns to the
original position automatically and the light turns
OFF too.

CAUTION
Do not fix and secure the switch lock. Besides, keep
your finger off the switch trigger when the circular
saw is being carried around. Otherwise, the main
body switch can be inadvertently turned ON,
resulting in unexpected accidents.
Keep the light ON during cutting operation only.
If it is lit ON in other cases, the main body switch
can be inadvertently turned ON, resulting in
unexpected accidents.
If the main body is left as it is with the battery
inserted, there can be a case where the [switch lock]
touches the floor and/or wall surface and lights up
continuously, depending on the direction of the
body. Be careful, since continuous lighting can easily
make a full-charged battery go dead in about 3
hours.
2. About Remaining Battery Indicator
When pressing the remaining battery indicator
switch, the remaining battery indicator lamp lights
and the battery remaining power can be checked.
(Fig. 22) When releasing your finger from the
remaining battery indicator switch, the remaining
battery indicator lamp goes off. The Table 4 shows
the state of remaining battery indicator lamp and
the battery remaining power.

Battery Remaining Power
The battery remaining power
is enough.
The battery remaining power
is a half.
The battery remaining power
is nearly empty.
Re-charge the battery soonest
possible.
As the remaining battery indicator shows somewhat
differently depending on ambient temperature and
battery characteristics, read it as a reference.
NOTE
Do not give a strong shock to the switch panel or
break it. It may lead to a trouble.
To save the battery power consumption, the
remaining battery indicator lamp lights while
pressing the remaining battery indicator switch.
3. Cutting procedures
CAUTION
Recheck that the saw blade is securely clamped.
Confirm that the wing nut for adjusting the slot
depth, the wing bolt for adjusting the angle of
inclination are securely clamped.
(1) Place the base on the material, then align the
premarked line and the sawblade with the notch
at the front of the base (Fig. 15).
When the base is not slanted, use the large cutout
as the guide (Fig. 15, Fig. 23).
