PRECAUTIONS ON USING CIRCULAR SAW
1.
Do not use saw blades which are deformed or
cracked.
2.
Do not use saw blades made of high speed steel.
3.
Do not use saw blades which do not comply with
the characteristics specified in these instructions.
4.
Do not stop the saw blades by lateral pressure
on the disc.
5.
Always keep the saw blades sharp.
6.
Ensure that the lower guard moves smoothly and
freely.
7.
Never use the circular saw with its lower guard
fixed in the open position.
8.
Ensure that the retraction mechanism of the guard
system operates correctly.
9.
Never operate the circular saw with the saw blade
turned upward or to the side.
10.
Ensure that the material is free of foreign matters
such as nails.
11.
For model C7ST, the saw blades range should be
from 185 mm to 180 mm.
12.
Disconnect the plug from the receptacle before
carrying out any adjustment, servicing or
maintenance.
13.
Do not use abrasive wheels.

APPLICATION
Cutting various types of wood.
PRIOR TO OPERATION
1. Power source
Ensure that the power source to be utilized con-
forms to the power requirements specified on the
product nameplate.
2. Power switch
Ensure that the power switch is in the OFF position.
If the plug is connected to a receptacle while the
power switch is in the ON position, the power tool
will start operating immediately, which could cause
a serious accident.
3. Extension cord
When the work area is removed from the power
source, use an extension cord of sufficient thickness
and rated capacity. The extension cord should be
kept as short as practicable.
4. Prepare a wooden workbench (Fig. 1)
Since the saw blade will extend beyond the lower
surface of the lumber, place the lumber on a
workbench when cutting. If a square block is utilized
as a workbench, select level ground to ensure it
is properly stabilized. An unstable workbench will
result in hazardous operation.
CAUTION
To avoid possible accident, always ensure that the
portion of lumber remaining after cutting is se-
curely anchored or held in position.
5. RCD
The use of a residual current device with a rated
residual current of 30mA or less at all times is
recommended.
ADJUSTING THE POWER TOOL PRIOR TO USE
1. Adjusting the cutting depth
To adjust cutting depth, loosen the lever (A) and,
while holding the base with one hand, move the
main body up and down to obtain the prescribed
cutting depth. After adjusting to the prescribed cutting
depth, tighten the lever (A) securely (
Fig. 2
).
CAUTION
Should this lever (A) remain loosened, it will create a
very hazardous situation. Always thoroughly clamp it.
2. Adjusting the angle of inclination
By loosening the lever (A) at the scale, the saw
blade can be inclined up to maximum angle of 45°
against the base.
The angle of inclination can also be regulated by
loosening the lever (A) at the scale (
Fig. 3
).
