TRIGGER SWITCH
1. To turn the saw ON, squeeze the trigger

could be accidentally started and cause
severe personal injury.

MATERIALS THAT YOU CAN CUT
The circular saw is a versatile saw that allows
you to cut many different types of materials.
Some of the materials include:
● Wood products such as lumber, hardwood,
plywood, composit board and panelling
● Drywall
● Masonite and plastic
NOTE: There are several different types of
blades available. Generally, blades with carbide-
tipped teeth cut better and stay sharp longer.
Tooth count and configuration are also
important. High tooth counts cut slower, and are
best suited for making smooth cuts on thinner
materials such as panelling. Use the correct
blade for your application.
GENERAL CUTTING
1. Make any adjustments to the saw before
installing the blade. Adjustments include
cutting depth, cutting angle and rip guide (if
installed).
2. Clearly mark the workpiece to locate the
position of the cut.
3. Hold a smaller workpiece with a vise.
Clamp a larger workpiece to a workbench
or table.
DANGER: Any workpiece that is not
adequately clamped in place may come
loose and cause serious injury. Never hold
the workpiece in your hand.
4. Make sure there are no nails, screws,
clamps or foreign materials in the path of
the saw blade.
5. With both hands firmly gripping the saw,
and with the blade NOT in contact with the
surface to be cut, start the saw by
squeezing the trigger switch.
6. Once the saw has reached full speed,
place the front edge of the sole plate on the
workpiece and gradually bring the moving
blade into contact with the workpiece at the
appropriate location.
