correct power tool will do the job better and
safer at the rate for which it was designed.
Do not use the power tool if the switch does
not turn it on and off.
Any power tool that
cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source
and/or remove the battery pack, if
detachable, from the power tool before
making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools.
Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons unfamiliar
with the power tool or these instructions to
operate the power tool.
Power tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
Maintain power tools and accessories. Check
for misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts and any other
condition that may affect the power tool’s
operation. If damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use.
Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained power tools.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to bind and are easier to
control.
Use the power tool, accessories and tool
bits etc. in accordance with these instructions,
taking into account the working conditions
and the work to be performed.
Use of the
power tool for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry,
clean and free from oil and grease.
Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not
allow for safe handling and control of the tool
in unexpected situations.
Service
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical
replacement parts.
This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.
Safety Rules for Circular Saws
Read all safety warnings and all instructions.

WARNING
Cutting procedures
Keep hands away from
cutting area and the blade.
Keep your second hand on auxiliary handle,
or motor housing.
If both hands are holding
the saw, they cannot be cut by the blade.
Do not reach underneath the workpiece.
The guard cannot protect you from the blade
below the workpiece.
Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of
the workpiece.
Less than a full tooth of the
blade teeth should be visible below the
workpiece.
Never hold piece being cut in your hands
or across your leg while cutting. Secure the
workpiece to a stable platform.
It is
important to support the work properly to
minimize body exposure, blade binding, or loss
of control.
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces, when performing an operation
where the cutting tool may contact hidden
wiring or its own cord.
Contact with a "live"
wire will also make exposed metal parts of the
tool “live” and could give the operator an
electric shock.
When ripping, always use a rip fence or
straight edge guide.
This improves the
accuracy of cut and reduces the chance of
blade binding.
Always use blades with correct size and
shape (diamond versus round) of arbor
holes.
Blades that do not match the mounting
hardware of the saw will run off-centre,
causing loss of control.
Never use damaged or incorrect blade
washers or bolt.
The blade washers and bolt
were specially designed for your saw, for
optimum performance and safety of operation.
Inspect the condition and quality of the
wood and remove all nails from lumber
before cutting.
Wet lumber, green lumber or
pressure treated lumber require special
attention during cutting operation to prevent
kickback.
Hold the saw firmly to prevent loss of
control.
Figures in this manual illustrate
typical hand support of the saw.
Depending upon use, the switch may not
