Working Hints For Your Circular Saw

If your power tool becomes too hot, run your circular saw no load for 2-3 minutes to cool 
the motor. Avoid prolonged usage at very low speeds.
Always use a blade suited to the material and material thickness to be cut. The quality of 
cut will improve as the number of blade teeth increase.
Always ensure the work-piece is firmly held or clamped to prevent movement. Support 
large panels close to the cut line. Any movement of the material may affect the quality 
of the cut. The blade cuts on the upward stroke and may chip the uppermost surface or 
edges of your work piece. When cutting, ensure your uppermost surface is a non-visible 
surface when your work is finished. Feeding too fast significantly reduces the performance 
of the tool and shortens the life of the saw blade. Always face the good side of the work-
piece down, to ensure minimum splintering. Only use sharp saw blades of the correct 
type.

Maintenance

Remove the plug from the socket before carrying out any adjustment, servicing or 
maintenance�

Your power tool requires no additional lubrication or maintenance. There are no user 
serviceable parts in your power tool. Never use water or chemical cleaners to clean your 
power tool. Wipe clean with a dry cloth. Always store your power tool in a dry place. Keep the 
motor ventilation slots clean. Keep all working controls free of dust. Occasionally you may 
see  sparks  through  the  ventilation  slots.  This  is  normal  and  will  not  damage  your  power  tool.                                  
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or 
similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
