Machine Specific Safety Instructions
Know your circular saw. Do not operate the tool until you have read and understand this Instruction Manual. Learn the tool's
applications and limitations, as well as the specific potential hazards related to this tool. Following this rule will reduce the risk of
electric shock, fire, or serious injury.
• Remove all packaging materials and the transport safeguards, if present. Keep packaging materials away from children –
danger of suffocation!
• This machine requires the use of two hands to ensure safe operation and should not be used when working from ladders and
step ladders.
• If the machine is to be used when working at height a suitable, stable platform or scaffold tower with hand rails and kick
boards should be used.
• Keep hands away from cutting area and blade. Keep your second hand on auxiliary handle, or motor housing. If both hands
are holding the saw, they cannot be cut by the blade.
• Do not reach underneath the workpiece. The guard cannot protect you from the blade below the workpiece.
• Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of the workpiece. Less than a full tooth of the blade teeth should be visible below
the workpiece.
• Never hold the piece being cut in your hands or across your leg. Secure the workpiece to a stable platform. It is important to
support the work properly to minimize body exposure, blade binding, or loss of control.
• Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden
wiring. Contact with a "live" wire will also make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and shock the operator.
• Always use blades with correct size and shape (diamond versus round) of arbour holes. Blades that do not match the
mounting hardware of the saw will run eccentrically, causing loss of control.
• Never use damaged or incorrect blade washers or bolt. The blade washers and bolt were specially designed for your saw, for
optimum performance and safety of operation.
• Never use a cracked or distorted saw blade. Only use sharp blades.
• Do not use blades of High Speed Steel (HSS blades)
• Avoid cutting nails. Inspect the work piece and remove all nails and other foreign objects before beginning sawing.
• Do not lock the movable guard in the open position and always ensure that it is working properly, freely rotating and
returning to fully cover the teeth of the blade.
Safety Instructions - Kickback
• Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched, bound or misaligned saw blade, causing an uncontrolled saw to lift up and out of
the workpiece toward the operator.
• When the blade is pinched or bound tightly by the cut closing, the blade stalls and the motor reaction drives the unit rapidly
back toward the operator.
• If the blade becomes twisted or misaligned in the cut, the teeth at the back edge of the blade can dig into the top surface of
the wood causing the blade to climb out of the cut and jump back towards the operator.
