4. OPERATION
Use of hearing protection is
recommended while operating the
circular saw.
Switching On/Off
• Press knob (16) with your right-hand thumb
and keep it depressed.
• Press knob (2) to start the saw.
• Release knob (2) to stop the saw.
Operation
• Hold the work using clamps or a vice to have
both hands free to operate the saw.
• Switch on the saw and place the bottom plate
on the work.
• Slowly move the saw towards the previously
drawn cutting line and slowly press the tool
forward.
• Firmly press the bottom plate on the work,
otherwise the circular saw may start to vibrate,
causing the blade to break more easily.
Let the saw do the job. Do not put undue
pressure on the circular saw.
Laser beamer
Laser beamer in use
The leading beam of the laser beamer makes
sawing in straight lines much easier:
a) along a drawn line, or
b) by aligning it to a fixed point marked on
the workpiece.
The range of the laser beam, depending on the
environmental light, is about 65 cm.
Replacing batteries
• Hold the circular handsaw straight in front of
you. Pull the lid on the laser beamer towards
you, and then lift it. Replace the batteries with
new ones. You will need 2 x 1.5 V "Micro/
AAA" batteries.
• Never dispose of old/empty batteries with the
household refuse, but deposit them instead at
special collection point for batteries or
chemical refuse.
• When inserting the batteries, ensure that the
+/- terminals are correctly placed, as shown
inside the battery compartment.
Ferm
• Again lower the lid, pull it towards you, press
it against the saw blade cover, and let it softly
spring back into the closed position.
• Check that the laser beamer is properly closed
by carefully opening the lid straight upwards. If
the lid opens up, repeat the closing procedure,
until the lid stays properly closed.
Adjusting the laser beam
• Transport handling and heavy use can affect
the precision of the laser beam.
• The laser beam itself can be easily adjusted.
• Hold the blade of the circular saw against a
straightedge or perfectly straight plank.
• Switch the laser on.
• Check whether the laser beam runs parallel
along the edge of the straightedge or plank.
If the laser beam is out of alignment, proceed as
follows:
• Loosen the two screws on the front side of the
laser a few turns.
• Hold the blade of the circular saw against a
straightedge or perfectly straight plank.
• Correct the laser such that it runs dead
straight along the edge.
• Again tighten the two screws.
5. MAINTENANCE
Make sure that the machine is not live
when carrying out maintenance work on
the motor.
The machines have been designed to operate
over a long period of time with a minimum of
main tenance. Continuous satisfactory operation
depends upon proper machine care and regular
cleaning.
Troubleshooting
Below we have listed a few probable causes and
solutions to which you can refer if your circular
saw does not function properly.
1. The temperature of the electric motor ex­
ceeds 70°C.
• The motor has been overloaded by working it
too hard.
• Cut more slowly and allow the motor to
cool down.
• The motor is defective.
