CUTTING WITH THE CIRCULAR
SAW (FIG. 10A, 10B & 10C)
To make the safest and best possible cut,
follow these helpful hints:
• Hold the saw firmly with both hands.
• Avoid placing your hand on the
workpiece while making a cut (FIG. 10A).
• Support the workpiece so that the cut
is always to the operator’s side and not
directly in line with the operator’s body.
• Support the workpiece near the cut.
• Clamp the workpiece securely so that
the workpiece will not move during the
cut (FIG. 10B).
• Always place the saw on the portion of
the workpiece that is supported, and
not on the “cut off” piece (FIG. 10C).
• Place the workpiece with the “good”
side down.
• Draw a guideline along the desired
cutting line before beginning the cut.
NOTICE:
• The “good” side of the workpiece
is the side where appearance is
important.
• Position your body to left side of the
blade to operate the circular saw.
