LED WORK LIGHT (FIG.11)
Your tool is equipped with the LED work light.
This provides additional light on the saw blade
and the surface of the workpiece for operation
in lower-light areas.
The LED work light will automatically turn on
with a slight squeeze of the trigger switch
before the tool starts running. It will turn off
approximately 10 seconds after the trigger
switch is released.
a. When the tool and/or battery pack becomes
overloaded or too hot, the internal sensors
will turn the tool off. If the tool and/or battery
pack are overloaded, the LED light will rapidly
flash. Rest the tool for a while or place the
tool and battery pack separately under air flow
for cooling.
b. The LED light will flash more slowly to indicate
that the battery pack charge is at low capacity.
Recharge the battery pack.
c. If the LED does not turn on when you start the
tool, or it turns off suddenly during operation,
please contact customer service or an
authorized service center for assistance.
GENERAL CUTS
Always hold the saw by the main handle with
one hand and the auxiliary handle with the
other. Maintain a firm 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.
Make sure your body faces away from the
vacuum hose adapter.
WARNING
Always be sure that
neither hand interferes
with the free movement of the lower guard.
Maintain a firm grip and operate the switch with
a decisive action. Never force the saw. Use light
and continuous pressure.
WARNING
After completing a cut and
releasing the trigger, be
aware of the necessary time it takes for the
blade to come to a complete stop during
coast down. Do not allow the saw to brush
against your leg or side; since the lower
guard is retractable, it could catch on your
clothing and expose the blade. Be aware of
the necessary blade exposures that exist in
both the upper and lower guard areas.
To resume cutting when cutting is interrupted,
restart the saw, and allow the blade to reach
full speed, re-enter the cut slowly, and resume
cutting.
When cutting across the grain, the fibers of the
wood tend to tear and lift. Advancing the saw
slowly minimizes this effect. For a finished cut, a
cross cut blade or miter blade is recommended.
NOT FOR CUTTING MASONRY/METAL
This tool is only designed for wood-cutting; it
is not designed for use with metal or masonry
cut-off wheels.
WARNING
Do not use abrasive
wheels with circular saws.
Abrasive dust may cause the lower guard to not
operate properly.
