SAW BLADES
The best of saw blades will not cut efficiently if they are not
kept clean, sharp, and properly set. Using a dull blade will
place a heavy load on your saw and increase the danger of
kickback. Keep extra blades on hand, so that sharp blades
are always available.
Gum and wood pitch hardened on blades will slow your saw
down. Use gum and pitch remover, hot water, or kerosene to
remove these accumulations.
DO NOT USE GASOLINE.
BLADE GUARD SYSTEM
The lower blade guard attached to your cordless circular
saw is there for your protection and safety. It should
never be altered for any reason. If it becomes damaged
or begins to return slow or sluggish, do not operate your
saw until the damage has been repaired or replaced.
Always leave guard in operating position when using saw.
DANGER:
When sawing through workpiece, lower blade guard does
not cover blade on the underside of workpiece. Since
blade is exposed on underside of workpiece, keep hands
and fingers away from cutting area. Any part of your body
coming in contact with moving blade will result in serious
injury.
See Figure 7.

Never use saw when guard is not operating correctly.
Guard should be checked for correct operation before
each use. If you drop your saw, check the lower blade
guard and bumper for damage at all depth settings
before reuse.
NOTE: The guard is operating correctly when it moves
freely and readily returns to the closed position. If for any
reason your lower blade guard does not close freely, take
it to the nearest Ryobi authorized service center for
service before using.
