be placed under the panel on both sides, near
the line of cut and near the edge of the panel.
e) Do not use dull or damaged blades.
Unsharpened or improperly set blades
produce narrow kerf causing excessive
friction, blade binding and kickback.
f) Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking levers
must be tight and secure before making cut.
If blade adjustment shifts while cutting, it may
cause binding and kickback.
g) Use extra caution when making a "plunge
cut" into existing walls or other blind areas.
The protruding blade may cut objects that can
cause kickback.
Safety instructions lower guard
a) Check lower guard for proper closing before
each use. Do not operate the saw if lower
guard does not move freely and close instantly.
Never clamp or tie the lower guard into the
open position. If saw is accidentally dropped,
lower guard may be bent. Raise the lower
guard with the retracting handle and make sure
it moves freely and does not touch the blade or
any other part, in all angles and depths of cut.
b) Check the operation of the lower guard spring.
If the guard and the spring are not operating
properly, they must be serviced before use.
Lower guard may operate sluggishly due to
damaged parts, gummy deposits, or a build-
up of debris.
c) Lower guard should be retracted manually
only for special cuts such as "plunge cuts"
and "compound cuts." Raise lower guard by
retracting handle and as soon as blade enters
the material, the lower guard must be released.
For all other sawing, the lower guard should
operate automatically.
d) Always observe that the lower guard is
covering the blade before placing saw down
on bench or floor. 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.
Before using the circular saw
Check the following points:
• D oes the voltage of the motor correspond
with the mains voltage (appliances for a
mains voltage of 230 V
• A re the mains lead and the mains plug in
a good condition: solid, without any loose
ends or damage;
• I s the saw blade missing any teeth or
showing any cracks, it so must be replaced
immediately.
• M ake sure the blade is secure.
• U se this circular saw to saw only wood,
wood-like products.
• D o not use circular saw blades wich are
deformed or damaged.
• D o not use HSS blades.
• O nly use blades meeting the required
dimensions, as well as data and descriptions;
• N ever apply any blades of which the thick n ess
is greater than that of the riving knife.
• D o not stop the blade of a circular saw by
pressing the blade from the side.
• C heck that the blade guard can freely move
and fully closes.
• N ever lock-up the guard in the open position.
• N ever put sideward pressure on the blade.
This may cause the blade to break.
• B e careful when cutting wood with knots, nails
or cracks in it and/or dirt on it, as these can
cause the blade to get stuck.
• N ever leave the circular saw unattended.
• U se this circular saw to saw only wood or
wood-like products.
Using the machine
• U se clamps or a vice to hold the work.
• N ever remove wood chips and saw dust that is
close to the saw blade with your hands. If there
are small pieces of wood left between the
fixed and the movable parts, the circular saw
will have to be stopped. The plug needs to be
removed from the socket, before any left piece
can be removed.
• C heck that the blade is suitable for the spindle
speed of the circular saw. Do not attempt
to cut before the circular saw has reached
full speed. Make sure the circular saw runs
without load (i.e. is not in contact with the
work) when you switch it on. The circular saw
must have reached its full speed first.
• N ever cut wood that is thicker than the depth
of the saw blade.
• W hen cutting in wooden walls or floors, check
there is no wiring or piping where you intend to
cut.
