IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
People with electronic devices, such as pacemakers, should consult their
physician(s) before using this product. Operation of electrical equipment in
close proximity to a heart pacemaker could cause interference or failure of
the pacemaker.
Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet properly installed and ground-
ed in accordance with all codes and ordinances. Never remove the grounding
prong or modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adaptor plugs. Check with
a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly
grounded. If the tools should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding
provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user.
WARNING:
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and
other construction activities contains chemicals known to the State of California
to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges
Some examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints.

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type
of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated
area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as dust masks that are
specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the tool or pull the plug
from an outlet. Keep the cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving
parts. Replace damaged cords immediately
. Damaged cords increase the risk
of electric shock.

and bolts were specifically designed for your saw, for optimum performance
and safety of operation.
The blade washers
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched, bound, or misaligned saw blade, caus-
ing an uncontrolled saw to lift up and out of the work piece toward the operator.
When the blade is pinched or bound tightly by the kerf closing down, the blade
stalls and the motor reaction drives the unit rapidly back toward the operator.
SAFETY RULES FOR CIRCULAR SAW
If the blade becomes twisted or misaligned in the cut, the teeth at the back edge
of the blade can dig into the top surface of the metal causing the blade to climb
out of the kerf and jump back toward the operator.
NEVER assume the blade has stopped just because the trigger has been
released.
Blades may continue moving even after the motor stops.
Always wear safety goggles or eye protection when using this tool. Use a
dust mask or respirator for applications which generate dust.
Kickback is the result of tool misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or
conditions and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as given below:
This saw may
throw up debris that could lodge in the eyes causing severe pain or injury.
Maintain a firm grip on the saw and position your body and arm in a way that
allows you to resist KICKBACK forces.
KICKBACK forces can be controlled by
the operator, if proper precautions are taken.
Inspect the bolts and blade washers before each use.
Damaged or incorrect
bolts or blade washers can cause injury.
When blade is binding, or when interrupting a cut for any reason, release the
trigger and hold the saw motionless in the material until the blade comes to
a complete stop. Never attempt to remove the saw from the work or pull the
saw backward while the blade is in motion or KICKBACK may occur.
Investigate and take corrective actions to eliminate the cause of blade binding.
When using the Circular Saw, always maintain a firm grip on the tool with
both hands. Never put your hands or feet in the cutting area. Do not grasp
the tool or place your hands too close to the blade.
Keep your hands well away

ADJUST BLADE CUTTING
GENERAL CUTTING
DEPTH:
1. Unplug the power cord.
Always hold the saw in front of you and away from your body. Keep your
hands and feet well away from the work piece.
2. Hold the saw firmly and pull
the lock lever up.
Never feed the blade into the work piece until the blade is at full speed.
If the blade is not at full speed, the saw may kick back causing serious
personal injury.
3. Raise or lower the base to the
desired cutting depth. Make
sure the teeth protrude at least
1/4" through the bottom of the
workpiece.
Do not force the saw. Excessive force may result in a
broken blade. Use only enough pressure to keep the saw moving through the
work piece.
4. Push the lever down to lock the base into position.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
• Put on eye protection.
• Clear the saw of any foreign material.
Always unplug the tool before attempting to change the
blade or accessories.
• Make sure the work piece is held securely in place. Hold smaller pieces in a vise
or attach to the workbench with clamps.
• Mark out the line to be cut so it is easily visible.
OPERATING THE TRIGGER SWITCH
• Check the lower guard for damage. If damaged, do not use tool.
Never tape the trigger switch down to provide
continuous high speed. The tool may fail under such conditions causing fire
or personal injury.
• Always use the right blade for the material.
• Make sure all bolts, screws and locking levers are secure before starting tool.
• Pull the trigger to start the saw.
• Set the shoe against the work piece.
The lock-off button helps prevent accidental starting.
• When the blade reaches full speed, slowly feed the blade into the work piece.
When the blade starts cutting, release the blade guard.
This button can be pressed from either side.

This tool is intended for cutting unhardened ferrous metal and non-ferrous metal.
The following precautions must be followed to reduce the risk of injury.
• Mark out the line to be cut so
it is easily visible.
• Do not cut stacked materials. Cut one piece at a time.
• Do not cut hardened steel.
• Start inside the area to be cut
out.
• Cut materials with the wider edge of the shoe over the clamped side of
the material.
• Set the shoe against the work
piece at an angle.
• Do not touch the blade, workpiece, chips, or chip container with bare hands
immediately after cutting; they may be hot and could burn skin.
• Lift the blade guard.
CUTTING THIN OR CORRUGATED MATERIALS
• Pull the trigger to start the saw.
Cut thin and corrugated materials at least 1" from the edge of the workpiece to avoid
injury or damage to the tool caused by thin strips of metal being pulled into the
upper guard.
• When the blade reaches full
speed, slowly feed the blade
into the work piece. When the
blade starts cutting, release
the blade guard.
CUTTING LARGE SHEETS
Large sheets sag or bend if they are not correctly supported. If you attempt to cut
without leveling and properly supporting the workpiece, the blade will tend to bind,
causing KICKBACK.
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Support large sheets. Be sure to set the depth of the cut so that you can only cut
through the workpiece, not through the supports.

ventilation openings clear.
Never let any liquid get
If the blade binds, release the trigger immediately. Do
not move the saw until the blade comes to a complete stop. Find the cause of
the binding before starting the saw again.
Regularly clean the ventilation slots in your tool and charger using only a soft
brush or dry cloth.
If the blade becomes pinched, twisted, misaligned or
bound, it will stall and lift up out of the work piece, suddenly jerking back
toward the operator. This reaction is referred to as KICKBACK.
Inspect all mounting screws regularly. Tighten any loose screws. Failure to keep
the mounting screws tight could result in serious injuries.
Never open the Metal-Cutting Circular Saw case. Do not attempt to repair the
Circular Saw yourself. Opening the tool will void your
warranty.
BRUSH REPLACEMENT:
The brushes are a wearing component of the tool and
should be replaced prior to the carbon wearing out
fully. When the carbon brushes wear out the tool will
spark and/or stop and therefore need to be replaced.
