PLUNGE CUTS

Disconnect the plug from the power source
before making adjustments. Set depth
adjustment according to material to be cut.
Reconnect the plug to power source.
Hold the main handle of the saw with one
hand, tilt saw forward and rest front of the foot
plate on material to be cut. Line up the cutting
guide notch with the line you've drawn. Raise
the lower guard using lower guard lift lever
and hold the front of the foot plate with the
other hand. (Fig. 7).
Position the saw with the blade just clearing
the material to be cut. Start the motor and
once fully up to speed, gradually lower the
back end of saw using the front end of the foot
as the hinge point.
Once the foot plate rests flat on the surface
being cut, release the lower guard and move
the hand holding the front of the foot plate to
hold the auxiliary handle. Proceed cutting in
forward direction to end of cut.
SWITCH
trigger
has
been
released, be aware of the nec es sary time it
takes for the blade to come to a com plete
stop during coast down. Do not allow the
saw to brush against your leg or side,
since the lower guard is retractable, it
could catch on your clothing and expose
the blade. Be aware of the necessary blade
ex posures that exist in both the upper and
lower guard areas.
When cutting is interrupted, to resume cutting:
squeeze the trigger and allow the blade to
reach full speed, re-enter the cut slowly and
resume cutting.
When cutting across the grain, the fibers of
the wood have a ten den cy to tear and lift.
Advancing the saw slowly minimizes this
effect. For a finished cut, a cross cut blade or
miter blade is rec om mended.
CUTTING MASONRY/METAL
This tool is not designed for use with metal or
masonry cut-off wheels.
Do not use abrasive wheels
with circular saws. Abrasive
WARNING
dust may cause lower guard to not operate
properly.
Allow blade to come to a
complete stop before lifting
the saw from cut. Also, never pull the saw
WARNING
backward since blade will climb out of the
material and KICKBACK will occur. Turn
saw around and finish the cut in the normal
manner, sawing forward. If corners of your
plunge cut are not completely cut through, use
a jigsaw or hand saw to finish the corners.
