Blades
A dull blade will cause inefficient cutting, overload on the
saw motor, excessive splintering and increase the possibility
of kickback. Change blades when it is no longer easy to push
the saw through the cut, when the motor is straining, or when
excessive heat is built up in the blade. It is a good practice to
keep extra blades on hand so that sharp blades are available for
immediate use. Dull blades can be sharpened in most areas.
Hardened gum on the blade can be removed with kerosene,
turpentine, or oven cleaner. Anti‑stick coated blades can be used
Base Plate Adjustment (Fig. G, H)
Your base plate has been factory set to assure that the blade is
perpendicular to the base plate. If after extended use you need
to re‑align the blade, follow the directions below:
Adjusting for 90 Degree Cuts
1. Return the saw to 0 degrees bevel.
2. Place the saw on its side, and retract the lower guard.
3. Set the depth of cut to 51 mm.
4. Loosen the bevel adjustment lever (
10 , Fig. G). Place a
square against the blade and the base plate as shown in
Fig. H.
5. Using a hex key, turn the set screw (
38
, Fig. H) on the
underside of the base plate until the blade and the base
plate are both in flush contact with the square. Retighten
the bevel adjustment lever.
Adjusting Bevel Adjustment Lever (Fig. E, G)
It may be desirable to adjust the bevel adjustment lever 10 . It
may loosen in time and hit the base plate before tighten ing.
To Tighten the lever
1. Hold the bevel adjustment lever 10 and loosen the bevel
locknut 32 .
2. Adjust the bevel adjustment lever by rotating it in the
desired direction about 1/8 of a revolution.
3. Retighten nut.
Lower Guard
The lower guard should always rotate and close freely from
a fully open to fully closed position. Always check for correct
operation before cutting by fully opening the guard and letting
it close. If the guard closes slowly or not completely, it will need
cleaning or servicing. Do not use the saw until it functions
correctly. To clean the guard, use dry air or a soft brush to
remove all accumulated sawdust or debris from the path of
the guard and from around the guard spring. Should this not
correct the problem, it will need to be serviced by an authorised
service centre.
WARNING: Never use solvents or other harsh chemicals
for cleaning the non‑metallic parts of the tool. These
chemicals may weaken the materials used in these parts.
Use a cloth dampened only with water and mild soap.
Never let any liquid get inside the tool; never immerse any
part of the tool into a liquid.
D
Cleaning
WARNING: Blow dirt and dust out of the main housing
with dry air as often as dirt is seen collecting in and around
the air vents. Wear approved eye protection and approved
dust mask when performing this procedure.
C
Lubrication
Your power tool requires no additional lubrication.
MAINTENANCE
Your power tool has been designed to operate over a long
period of time with a minimum of maintenance. Continuous
satisfactory operation depends upon proper tool care and
regular cleaning.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn tool off and disconnect battery pack
before making any adjustments or removing/
installing attachments or accessories.
An accidental
start‑up can cause injury.
The charger and battery pack are not serviceable.
Rafter Hook (Fig. A)
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of serious personal injury,
do not use the tool's rafter hook to hang the tool from your
body. DO NOT use the rafter hook for tethering or securing
the tool to a person or object during use. DO NOT suspend
tool overhead or suspend objects from the rafter hook.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury from the circular
saw falling on operators or bystanders, make sure it is
supported securely when using the rafter hook, or resting
in a secure and stable location when not in use. Be sure
to keep the area below clear to reduce the risk of the
tool or off‑cut material falling and striking someone or
something below.
The circular saw has a convenient rafter hook
14
that allows it
to hang on a suitable, stable structure between uses. The rafter
hook is not for tethering or securing the tool to a person or
object during use when elevated.
A dust extraction port 24 is supplied with your tool.
The dust extraction port allows you to connect the tool
to an external dust extractor, either using the AirLock™
system (DWV9000‑XJ), or a standard 35 mm dust
extractor fitment.
WARNING: ALWAYS use a vacuum extractor designed
in compliance with the applicable directives regarding
dust emission when sawing wood. Vacuum hoses of most
common vacuum cleaners will fit directly into the dust
extraction outlet.
