Warning!
Before connecting a tool to a power source (mains switch
power point receptacle, outlet, etc.) be sure that the voltage
supply is the same as that specified on the nameplate of
the tool. A power source with a voltage greater than that
specified for the tool can result in serious injury to the user,
as well as damage to the tool.
If in doubt, do not plug in the tool. Using a power source
with a voltage less than the nameplate rating is harmful to
the motor.
Your tool is double insulated for additional protection against
a possible electrical insulation failure within the tool.
Always remove the plug from the mains socket before
making any adjustments or maintenance, including
changing the blade.
• When operating the saw, use safety equipment including
safety goggles or shield, ear protection, dust mask and
protective clothing including safety gloves.
• Do not use this saw to cut firewood.
• Ensure that the lighting is adequate.
• Keep the area free of tripping hazards.
• Do not let anyone under the age of 18 years operate this saw.
• Always stand to one side when operating the saw.
• Never use a cracked or distorted saw blade. Only use
sharp blades.
• When cutting round wood, use clamps that prevent the
work piece from turning on both sides of the blade.
• Never use your hands to remove sawdust, chips or
waste close by the blade.
• Use only blades as recommended.
• Do not use blades of High Speed Steel (HSS blades)
• Rags, cloths, cord and string and the like should never
be left around the work area.
• Avoid cutting nails. Inspect the work piece and remove
all nails and other foreign objects before beginning sawing.
• Support the work properly.
• Never reach over the blade to remove waste or off cuts.
• Do not attempt to free a jammed blade before first
switching off the machine.
• Do not slow or stop a blade with a piece of wood.
Let the blade come to rest naturally.
• If you are interrupted when operating the saw, complete
the process and switch off before looking up.
• Periodically check that all nuts, bolts and other fixings
are properly tightened.
• Do not store materials or equipment above a machine in
such a way that they could fall into it.
• Always hold the saw on parts that are insulated.If you
accidentally cut into hidden wiring or the saw ’s own
cable, the metal parts of the saw will become “live ”.
• Never saw near combustible liquids or gases.
• Note the direction of rotation of the motor and the blade.
• Do not lock the movable guard in the open position and
always ensure that it is working properly, freely rotating
and returning to fully cover the teeth of the blade.
• Do not use any abrasive wheel unless the machine is
designed for that purpose.
The tool must be used only for its prescribed purpose.
Any use other than those mentioned in this Manual
will be considered a case of misuse. The user and not
the manufacturer shall be liable for any damage or injury
resulting from such cases of misuse.
The manufacturer shall not be liable for any changes
made to the tool nor for any damage resulting from such
changes. Even when the tool is used as prescribed
it is not possible to eliminate all residual risk factors.
The following hazards may arise in connection with the
tool’s construction and design:
• Contact with the blade.
• Kickback of workpiece and parts of workpiece.
• Blade fracture
• Catapulting of blade pieces.
• Damage to hearing if effective ear defenders are not worn.
• Harmful emissions of sawdust when the machine is used
in closed rooms. Always use supplementary dust
extraction where possible.

4 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Keep guards in place and in good working order at all times
to avoid serious accidents.
Support large panels as shown in (Pic. 2) to minimize the
risk of blade pinching and kickback. Pic. 3 shows the wrong
way to cut large pieces of wood, cutting in this way will
cause serious injury to the operator.
When cutting, the saw should rest on the larger piece of the
material and the smaller piece cut off.
Use a rip fence at all times, this will help to prevent side
pressure being exerted on the blade and will also give a
straighter cut.
GUARDING AGAINST KICK BACK
Kick back occurs when the saw stalls rapidly and is driven
back towards the operator. To avoid kick back keep blades
sharp and always support large work pieces correctly.
Release the switch immediately if blade binds or if the
circular saw stalls.
Do not remove the saw from a work piece while the blade is
still moving. Never place your hands or fingers behind or in
front of the saw (Pic. 4). If kick back occurs, the saw could
jump backwards over your hand, possibly causing severe
injury.
Always lower guard with the retaining handle. Before cutting
be sure that the depth and bevel adjustments are tight.
Use only the correct blades for your power tool with the
correct bore size.
Never use defective or incorrect blade washers or bolts.
Avoid cutting nails by inspecting the work piece, remove all
nails from the work piece before cutting.
Operate with the correct hand and work piece support.
