Intended use

ENE028-1

The tool is intended for performing lengthways and

crossways straight cuts and mitre cuts with angles in

wood while in firm contact with the workpiece.

CORDLESS CIRCULAR SAW

SAFETY WARNINGS

GEB060-1

Danger:

1. 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.

2. Do not reach underneath the workpiece. The guard

cannot protect you from the blade below the

workpiece. Do not attempt to remove cut material

when blade is moving.

CAUTION: Blades coast after turn off. Wait until blade

stops before grasping cut material.

3. 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.

4. Never hold piece being cut in your hands or

across your leg. Secure the workpiece to stable

platform. It is important to support the work properly

to minimize body exposure, blade binding, or loss of

control.

A typical illustration of proper hand support and

workpiece support. (Fig. 1)

5. Hold 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.

6. When ripping always use a rip fence or straight

edge guide. This improves the accuracy cut and

reduces the chance of blade binding.

7. 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.

8. 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.

9. 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.
