LED Light (Fig . 10)
An LED light is located behind the upper guard.
This provides additional light on the saw blade
and the surface of the workpiece for operation
in lower-light areas.
The LED light will automatically turn on when
the trigger switch is pressed and will turn off
after the trigger switch is released.
If the tool and/or battery pack becomes
overloaded or too hot, the internal sensors will
turn the tool off, and the LED light will rapidly
flash. Rest the tool for a while or place the tool
and battery pack separately under air flow for
cooling.
Cutting with the Circular Saw (Fig . 11)
Refer to the figures in this section to learn the correct and incorrect ways of handling the saw.
WARNING
To make sawing easier and safer, always maintain proper control of the saw. Loss of
•
control could cause an accident resulting in serious injury.
Maintain a firm grip and operate the trigger switch with a decisive action. Never force
•
the saw. Use light and continuous pressure.
When lifting the saw from the workpiece, the blade is exposed on the underside of the
•
saw until the lower blade guard closes. Make sure that the lower blade guard is closed
before setting the saw down.
To make the safest and best possible cut, follow these helpful hints:
a. Hold the saw firmly with both hands.
b. Avoid placing your hand on the workpiece while making a cut.
c. Support the workpiece so that the cut is always to the operator's side and not
line with the operator's body.
d. Support the workpiece near the cut.
e. Clamp the workpiece securely so that the workpiece will not move during the cut.
f. Always place the saw on the portion of the workpiece that is supported, and not on the "cut
off" piece.
g. Place the workpiece with the "good" side down.
h. Draw a guideline along the desired cutting line before beginning the cut.
i. Rest the front edge of the foot on the workpiece without touching the blade to the
workpiece
j. Depress the trigger switch to start the saw.
k. Allow the blade to reach full speed, then guide the saw into the workpiece and make the
cut.
l. Release the trigger switch and allow the blade to come to a complete stop.
m. Lift the saw from the workpiece.
NOTICE: Do not bind the blade in the cut.
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.
