Checking the Lower Guard (Fig. A)
1. Turn tool off and disconnect from power supply.
2. Rotate the lower blade guard retracting lever
fully closed position to the fully open position.
3. Release the lever and observe the guard
fully closed position.
The tool should be serviced by a qualified service center if it:
•
fails to return to the fully closed position,
•
moves intermittently or slowly, or
•
contacts the blade or any part of the tool in all angles and
depth of cut.
Blades
WARNING: To minimize the risk of eye injury, always
use eye protection. Carbide is a hard but brittle material.
Foreign objects in the workpiece such as wire or nails
can cause tips to crack or break. Only operate saw when
proper saw blade guard is in place. Mount blade securely
in proper rotation before using, and always use a clean,
sharp blade.
WARNING: Do not cut metal, plastic, concrete, masonry
or fiber cement materials with this saw.
Do not use abrasive wheels or blades. A dull blade will cause
slow inefficient cutting, overload on the saw motor, excessive
splintering, and could increase the possibility of kickback.
Please refer to the table below to determine the correct size
replacement blade for your model saw.

Cutting Depth Adjustment (Fig. A, H)
1. Hold the saw firmly and loosen (clockwise) the depth
adjustment lever
4
and move shoe (
desired depth of cut.
2. Make sure the depth adjustment lever has been retightened
(counterclockwise) before operating saw.
For the most efficient cutting action, set the depth adjustment
so that one‑half tooth of the blade will project below the
material to be cut. This distance is from the tip of the tooth to
the bottom of the gullet in front of it. This keeps blade friction
at a minimum, removes sawdust from the cut, results in cooler,
faster sawing and reduces the chance of kickback. A method
for checking for correct cutting depth is shown in Figure H. Lay
a piece of the material you plan to cut along the side of the
blade, as shown, and observe how much tooth projects beyond
the material.
Bevel Angle Adjustment (Fig. A, I)
The full range of the bevel adjustment is from 0 ° to 50 °. The
quadrant is graduated in increments of 1 °. On the front of the
saw is a bevel angle adjustment mechanism consisting of a
calibrated quadrant and a bevel adjustment lever

To Set the Saw for a Bevel Cut
1. Loosen (counterclockwise) the bevel adjustment lever
and tilt shoe (
5
, Fig. A) to the desired angle by aligning the
pointer with the desired angle mark.
2. Retighten lever firmly (clockwise).
Kerf Indicator (Fig. A)
The front of the saw shoe has a kerf indicator
and bevel cutting. This indicator enables you to guide the saw
along cutting lines penciled on the material being cut. The kerf
indicator lines up with the left (inner) side of the saw blade,
which makes the slot or "kerf" cut by the moving blade fall to
the right of the indicator. Guide along the penciled cutting line
so that the kerf falls into the waste or surplus material.

Mounting the Dust Extraction Port (Fig. A, E)
Your circular saw is supplied with a dust extraction port.
To Install the Dust Extraction Port
1. Fully loosen depth adjustment lever
2. Place the shoe

in the lowest position.
3. Push the dust extraction port
upper guard and align with the mounting holes. Secure
dust extraction port to the upper guard using the two
screws

provided.
Prior to Operation
•
Make sure the guards have been mounted correctly. The
saw blade guard must be in closed position.
•
Make sure the saw blade rotates in the direction of the
arrow on the blade.
•
Do not use excessively worn saw blades.
