Never remove the grounding
prong or modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adaptor plugs. Check with
a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly
grounded. If the tools should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding
provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user.

WWAARRNNIINNGG::

Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and
other construction activities contains chemicals known to the State of California
to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.

Some examples of these chemicals are:

• Lead from lead-based paints.

• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products,
and arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type
of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated
area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as dust masks that are
specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

WWAARRNNIINNGG::

Handling the power cord on corded products may expose you to
lead, a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth
defects or other reproductive harm.

CCAAUUSSEESS AANNDD PPRREEVVEENNTTIIOONN OOFF KKIICCKKBBAACCKK

Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched, bound, or misaligned saw blade, caus­ing an uncontrolled saw to lift up and out of the work piece 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 metal causing the blade to climb
out of the kerf and jump back toward the operator.

Kickback is the result of tool misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or
conditions and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as given below:

OPERATING THE TRIGGER SWITCH

Never tape the trigger switch down to provide

continuous high speed. The tool may fail under such conditions causing fire

or personal injury.

The lock-off button helps prevent accidental starting.

This button can be pressed from either side.

THIS TOOL IS CONTROLLED BY
A TRIGGER SWITCH:

• The speed of the Circular Saw

depends on the amount of
pressure applied on the trigger.
The further the trigger
is pressed, the faster the tool
will go.

• Press the lock-off button, then

pull the “ON/OFF” trigger to
turn the Circular Saw “ON”. To turn the Circular Saw “OFF”, release the trigger
switch. The lock-off button will automatically reset.

GENERAL CUTTING

Always hold the saw in front of you and away from your body. Keep your
hands and feet well away from the work piece.

Never feed the blade into the work piece until the blade is at full speed.
If the blade is not at full speed, the saw may kick back causing serious
personal injury.

Do not force the saw. Excessive force may result in a

broken blade. Use only enough pressure to keep the saw moving through the

work piece.

• Put on eye protection.

• Clear the saw of any foreign material.

• Make sure the work piece is held securely in place. Hold smaller pieces in a vise
or attach to the workbench with clamps.

• Mark out the line to be cut so it is easily visible.

• Check the lower guard for damage. If damaged, do not use tool.

• Always use the right blade for the material.

• Make sure all bolts, screws and locking levers are secure before starting tool.

• Pull the trigger to start the saw.

• Set the shoe against the work piece.

• When the blade reaches full speed, slowly feed the blade into the work piece.
When the blade starts cutting, release the blade guard.

To reduce risk of damage to the tool or blade, do not exceed the feed rate
and maximum cut time for materials thicker than 1/4".

Cutting too fast or too long in heavy material will damage the tool if the tool
if the tool is not allowed to cool.

Cutting too slowly will cause excessive wear on the blade.

• Mark out the line to be cut so
it is easily visible.

• Start inside the area to be cut
out.

• Set the shoe against the work
piece at an angle.

• Lift the blade guard.

• Pull the trigger to start the saw.

• When the blade reaches full
speed, slowly feed the blade
into the work piece. When the
blade starts cutting, release
the blade guard.

Never open the Metal-Cutting Circular Saw case. Do not attempt to repair the

Circular Saw yourself. Opening the tool will void your
warranty.

BBRRUUSSHH RREEPPLLAACCEEMMEENNTT::

The brushes are a wearing component of the tool and
should be replaced prior to the carbon wearing out
fully. When the carbon brushes wear out the tool will
spark and/or stop and therefore need to be replaced.

This tool is intended for cutting unhardened ferrous metal and non-ferrous metal.
The following precautions must be followed to reduce the risk of injury.

• Do not cut stacked materials. Cut one piece at a time.

• Do not cut hardened steel.

• Cut materials with the wider edge of the shoe over the clamped side of
the material.

• Do not touch the blade, workpiece, chips, or chip container with bare hands
immediately after cutting; they may be hot and could burn skin.

CUTTING THIN OR CORRUGATED MATERIALS

Cut thin and corrugated materials at least 1" from the edge of the workpiece to avoid
injury or damage to the tool caused by thin strips of metal being pulled into the
upper guard.

CUTTING LARGE SHEETS

Large sheets sag or bend if they are not correctly supported. If you attempt to cut
without leveling and properly supporting the workpiece, the blade will tend to bind,
causing KICKBACK.

Support large sheets. Be sure to set the depth of the cut so that you can only cut
through the workpiece, not through the supports.

POCKET CUTTING

If the blade binds, release the trigger immediately. Do

not move the saw until the blade comes to a complete stop. Find the cause of
the binding before starting the saw again.

If the blade becomes pinched, twisted, misaligned or

bound, it will stall and lift up out of the work piece, suddenly jerking back
toward the operator. This reaction is referred to as KICKBACK.
