any electrical component fail to perform properly: ALWAYS shut off the power switch and
remove the saw plug from the power source and have the missing, damaged or failed part

SAFETY RULES FOR CIRCULAR SAWS
I Z_ DANGER! Keep hands away from cutting area and blade. Keep your second hand
| on the auxiliary handle or motor housing, if both hands are holding the saw, they cannot
be cut by the blade
1. ALWAYS keep your body positioned to either side of the saw blade,
but not in line with the saw blade. Kickback could cause the saw to jump
backwards. (See Kickback _What Causes It and Ways to Prevent It on pages 7-8).
2. DO NOT reach underneath the work. The guard cannot protect you from
the blade beneath the work.
3. ALWAYS check lower guard for proper closing BEFORE each use.
DO NOT operate the saw if the lower guard does not move freely
and close instantly, Never clamp or tie the lower guard in the open
position. If the saw is accidentally dropped, the lower guard may be bent.
Raise the lower guard with the retracting handle. Make sure that it moves
freely and does not touch the blade or any other part in all angles and depths of cut°
4. ALWAYS check the operation and condition of the lower guard spring.
If the guard and the spring are not operating properly, they MUST be
serviced before use. The lower guard may operate sluggishly, due to
damaged parts, gummy deposits, or a buildup of debris
5.The lower guard should be retracted manually ONLY for making
special cuts, such as pocket or compound cuts. ALWAYS raise the
lower guard by retracting the handle. As soon as the blade enters the
material, the lower guard MUST be released. For all other sawing, the
lower guard should operate automatically.
6. ALWAYS make sure that the lower guard is covering the blade
BEFORE placing the saw down on a work bench or floor. An
unprotected moving blade will cause the saw to walk backwards,
cutting whatever is in its path. Make note of the time it takes for
the blade to stop spinning after the switch is release&
