CAUTION!
The use of operating or adjustment
devices or other methods of working other than
those indicated in this document may lead to
exposure to hazardous radiation.
Working safely:
If a dangerous situation arises, pull the mains
plug immediately out of the mains socket.
Never use the device for a purpose for which it
was not intended.
Always keep the device clean, dry and free of
oil or grease.
If the saw is used whilst fixed in place on a saw ta-
ble then the saw table must have a restart cut-out.
Make sure the device is switched on before
placing it against the workpiece.
Always work away from your body.
Do not saw materials containing asbestos.
The course of the cut must have no obstructions
above or below it.
The saw blade must not project more than
3 mm out of the workpiece.
When you are sawing, always make sure that you
do not cut through any nails, screws or the like.
Do not work with the device in the overhead
position.
Protect the saw blade from sharp blows or im-
pacts and prevent it from becoming tilted.
When you switch off the saw, allow the blade
to slow down naturally - do not assist this proc-
ess in any way.
Cracked or distorted blades are not to be used.
HSS (High Speed Steel) saw blades are not to
be used.
Before carrying out any work on the saw, e.g.
setting the base plate etc. always pull the
mains plug out of the mains socket.
Never remove sawdust or splinters whilst the
saw is running.
Have a suitable, tested vacuum removal device
attached to the saw when working with woods
or materials that create dusts that may be haz-
ardous to health.
Always use the safety devices integrated into
the circular saw, e.g. the safety lock-out
2
and automatic blade guard
7
.
Ensure that all moving parts of the saw blade
protection system function properly and all the
assemblies and components involved in cover-
ing the saw blade are in perfect working order.
Do not lock on the ON / OFF switch
3
in
hand-guided operation.
Preparing for use
The PHKS 66 circular saw has Intelligent Power
Control.
This automatic power
delivery system ensures
that for a particular
speed range the power output remains constant when
working on harder and more resistant materials.
Switching on and off
Switching on:
Press the safety lock-out
2
to the left or right
and keep it pressed.
Press the ON / OFF switch
3
. Once the saw
is running you can release the safety lock-out
2
again.
The circular saw is fitted with an
electronic soft start system. The
motor starts with a delay.
