ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR
ALL SAWS WITH RIVING KNIFE
a) Use the appropriate riving knife for the blade being
used.
For the riving knife to work, it must be thicker than
the body of the blade but thinner than the tooth set of
the blade.
b) Adjust the riving knife as described in this instruction
manual.
Incorrect spacing, positioning and alignment can
make the riving knife ineffective in preventing
kickback.
c) Always use the riving knife except when plunge
cutting.
Riving knife must be replaced after plunge cutting.
Riving knife causes interference during plunge cutting
and can create kickback.
d) For the riving knife to work, it must be engaged in
the workpiece.
The riving knife is ineffective in preventing kickback
during short cuts.
e) Do not operate the saw if riving knife is bent.
Even a light interference can slow the closing rate of
a guard.
PRECAUTIONS ON USING CIRCULAR SAW
1. Do not use saw blades which are deformed or
cracked.
2. Do not use saw blades made of high speed steel.
3. Do not use saw blades which do not comply with
the characteristics specified in these instructions.
4. Do not stop the saw blades by lateral pressure
on the disc.

5. Always keep the saw blades sharp.
6. Ensure that the lower guard smoothly and freely.
7. Never use the circular saw with its lower guard
fixed in the open position.
8. Ensure that the retraction mechanism of the guard
system operates correctly.
9. The saw blades body must be thinner than the
riving knife and the width of cut, or kerf (with
teeth set) must be greater than the thickness of
the riving knife.
10. Never operate the circular saw with the saw blade
turned upward or to the side.
11. Ensure that the material is free of foreign matters
such as nails.
12. The riving knife should always be used except
when plunging in the middle of the workpiece.
13. For models C6UY and C6BUY, the saw blades
range should be from 165 mm to 162 mm.
For models C7UY and C7BUY, the saw blades
range should be from 190 mm to 185 mm.
14. For models C6BUY and C7BUY, be careful of
brake kickback.
C6BUY and C7BUY models features an electric
brake that functions when the switch is released.
As there is some kickback when the brake
functions, be sure to hold the main body securely.
15. Sparks can sometimes appear caused by braking
operation when the switch is turned off since
C6BUY and C7BUY models employ electric brakes.
Be informed, however, that this phenomenon is
not a machine trouble.
16. For models C6BUY and C7BUY, when the brake
becomes ineffective, replace the carbon brushes
with new ones.
17. Disconnect the plug from the receptacle before
carrying out any adjustment, servicing or
maintenance.
