LED LIGHT
Your tool is equipped with a powerful LED light
for better visibility when cutting. The light has
the ability to turn on when only partially de-
pressing the trigger. The light will stay on for
5 seconds after the trigger has been released.
This allows the cut to be more visible before
the saw blade begins to spin. Once the blade
is correctly situated for the cut, depress the
trigger completely and begin the cut. The light
will stay on during the duration of the cut and
5 seconds after the trigger has been released.
GENERAL CUTS
Always hold the saw handle with one hand
and auxiliary handle/motor housing with the
other.
Always make sure saw foot rests on portion of
work surface that does not drop off.
Always be sure either
hand does not interfere
with the free movement of the lower guard.
Maintain a firm grip and operate the switch
with a decisive action. Never force the saw.
Use light and continuous pressure.
This tool is intended for cutting unhardened
ferrous metal. Refer to the accessories sec-
tion for a list of compatible blades based on
application.
The following guidelines are to be followed to
reduce the risk of injury:
• Do not cut stacked materials. Cut one piece
at a time.
• Cut at least 1/2” from the edge of the work-
piece
• Do not cut hardened steel.
• Clamp material and cut with the wider edge
of the foot over the clamped side.
• Do not touch the saw blade, workpiece, or
cutting chips with bare hands, immediately
after cutting; they may be hot and could
burn skin.
• Cut through the thinnest mateial section;
adjusting the cutting angle of the blade to
do so.
When cutting is interrupted, to resume cutting:
squeeze the trigger and allow the blade to
reach full speed, re-enter the cut slowly and
resume cutting.
Only use 5-3/8” metal
cutting blades recom-
mended in this manual. Do not use abrasive
wheels. Using blades not recommended in this
manual can result in a hazardous situation.
CUTTING MASONRy/WOOD
This tool is not designed for use with wood or
masonry cut-off wheels.
Do not use abrasive
wheels with circular saws.
Abrasive dust may cause lower guard to fail.
ELECTRIC BRAKE
Your saw is equipped with an automatic elec-
tric brake which is designed to stop the blade
from spinning in about 2 seconds after you re-
lease the trigger.
The electric blade brake of your saw has been
designed for the highest degree of reliability,
but unexepected circumstances such as con-
tamination on the commutator and brushes or
failure of motor’s components can cause the
brake not to activate. If this condition occurs,
turn the saw “ON” and “OFF” five times without
contacting the workpiece. If the tool operates,
but the brake does not consistently stop the
blade in about two seconds, DO NOT use the
saw and have it serviced.
The brake action of this
saw is not inteded as a
safety feature. Remember to let the saw
blade come to a complete stop before rais-
ing the blade from the workpeice. As always,
the guard system is your best protection
against unintentional contact with a spin-
ning saw blade. NEVER wedge open or de-
feat the closting action of the lower guard.
After completing a cut
and the trigger has been
released, be aware of the necessary time it
takes for the blade to come to a complete
stop. Though this saw is designed with an
electric blade brake, do not allow the saw
to brush against your leg or side, since the
lower guard is retractable, it could catch
on your clothing and expose the blade. Be
aware of the necessary blade exposure
that exist in both the upper and lower
guard areas.
PLUNGE CUTS
Disconnect battery pack from tool before mak-
ing ad justments. Set depth adjustment ac-
cording to material to be cut.
Hold the main handle of the saw with one
hand, tilt saw forward and rest front of the foot
plate on material to be cut. Line up the cutting
guide notch with the line you’ve drawn. Raise
the lower guard using lower guard lift lever and
hold the front of the foot plate with the other
hand. (Fig. 6).
Position the saw with the blade just clearing
