constant blade rotation speed will result in a very smooth cut.
Soft start feature
This function allows the smooth start-up of the tool by
limiting the start-up torque.

Installing the blade
WARNING:
Before mounting the blade onto the
spindle, always be sure that the correct ring for the blade's
arbor hole you intend to use is installed between the inner
and the outer flanges.
Use of the incorrect arbor hole ring
may result in the improper mounting of the blade causing blade
movement and severe vibration resulting in possible loss of
control during operation and in serious personal injury.
CAUTION:
Make sure to install the circular
saw blade so that the direction of the arrow on the
blade matches that on the blade case.
Failure to do
so may result in personal injury and cause damage to
the tool and/or the workpiece.
Arbor hole diameters of circular saw blade may differ
depending on your region of residence. Use a correctly
sized ring to secure the circular saw blade to the spindle
when the hole diameter exceeds the spindle diameter.
To install the circular saw blade, perform the following steps:
1.
Mount the circular saw blade carefully onto the
inner flange. Make sure that the direction of the arrow
on the circular saw blade matches the direction of the
arrow on the blade case.
