CIRCULAR SAW SAFETY WARNINGS
Safety Warnings for Circular Saw
DANGER! Keep hands away from cutting area and the 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 workpiece 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 power tool by the insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the cutting tool may run into hidden wiring.
Contact with a “live” wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator.
When ripping always use a rip fence or straight edge guide. This
improves the accuracy of cut and reduces the chance of blade binding.
Always use blades which match those specied, never modify a blade or tting.
Blades that do not match the mounting hardware of the saw may run eccentrically, causing loss of control or other damage. 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.
Causes and operator prevention of 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 kerf closing down, 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 kerf and jump back toward the operator.
Kickback is the result of saw misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as given below.
Maintain a rm grip with both hands on the saw and position your arms to resist kickback forces. Position your body to either side of the blade, but not in line with the blade. Kickback could cause the saw to jump backwards, but kickback forces can be controlled by the operator, if proper precautions are taken. When blade is binding, or when interrupting a cut for any reason, release the trigger and hold the saw motionless in the material until the blade comes to a complete stop. Never attempt to remove the saw from the work or pull the saw backward while the blade is in motion or kickback may occur. Investigate and take corrective actions to eliminate the cause of blade binding. When restarting a saw in the workpiece, centre the saw blade in the kerf and check that saw teeth are not engaged into the material. If saw blade is binding, it may walk up or kickback from the workpiece as the saw is restarted. Support large panels to minimise the risk of blade pinching and kickback. Large panels tend to sag under their own weight. Supports must be placed under the panel on both sides, near the line of cut and near the edge of the panel. Do not use dull or damaged blades. Unsharpened or improperly set blades produce narrow kerf causing excessive friction, blade binding and kickback. 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. 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. 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, the 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.

PREPARE YOUR WORK
• Mark your cut and use the notch at the front of the Sole Plate to guide the blade.
• Set the depth of cut so it just clears the timber.
READ ALL
INSTRUCTIONS
• Start the saw and allow it to reach full speed before starting the cut. Maintain a steady, even pressure and speed that does not slow the rotation speed. Ease o󰀨 slightly if the blade slows but continue the cut in one pass when possible and safe to do so to
ensure a clean cut.
• Use a guide. A rail system is best, a straight edge clamped to the work piece is a good alternative. Fit the adjustable rip guide onto the saw to use the edge of the work piece as a guide. For short rips, a single clamp can be positioned on the work piece so the edge of the sole plate runs against it -see the sole plate measurements at the bottom of this page.
• A smoother nish can be achieved by using a blade with more teeth. A blade with less teeth will make a faster, rougher cut that
uses less energy.
• The teeth of the blade can cause cracks and splintering as they exit whereas the entry side will have a smoother nish. When cutting a nishing piece -eg a worktop or skirting board. Face the nished side downward and run the saw along the back. Scoring timber can also help prevent splintering.
• Splintering can be reduced when cutting diagonally across grain by cutting with, rather than against the grain.
• Slow down slightly but follow through at the end of a cut to prevent scu󰀩ng the cut with the back of the blade or leaving snags or chips. Ensure the blade has cleared the cut before allowing the saw to leave the guide.
2-5mm is enough. This will help prevent blade binding, help prevent splintering and improve e󰀩ciency.

• When cutting thick timber or performing compound or angled cuts it may be necessary to rotate the blade shield to prevent it stopping the cut as it hooks on the edge of the work piece. Use the Blade Shield Retractor to rotate the shield into the saw. As the rear of the blade enters the work piece, release the Blade Shield so it rests on the surface of the work and will safely cover the blade when it exits the cut.
• When doing big jobs that require constant charging of the batteries remember that you can swap Li-Ion batteries at any time during a charge/ discharge cycle.
A 4.0 Battery will be charged to 80% of its full capacity in the rst 60 minutes on the fast charger, the nal 20% capacity charges at
a lower current.
• The maximum capacity of a Li-Ion battery drops faster in warm conditions permanently reducing its working lifetime. Storing the batteries at a stable temperature below 20°C (68°F) and above freezing will allow them to retain a higher capacity throughout their life, avoid keeping them in hot vehicles or storage areas. This is di󰀨erent to other types of battery such as NiCD, NiMh and Pb which last longest in a warmer environment 10ºC - 24ºC (50ºF
-75ºF).
• Never store a Li-Ion battery for a long period with a low charge, maintain 40 to 80% charge in general use and storage to avoid premature failure.
Once every 10 charge cycles it is advised to fully discharge, then fully charge the battery, this will help maintain maximum capacity.
