Due to our continuing programme of research and development, the specifications herein are subject to change without notice. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. The term "power tool" in all of the warnings listed below refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool. [. . . ] Do not operate the saw if guard does not move freely and enclose the blade instantly. Check to make sure that guard moves freely and does not touch the blade or any other part, in all angles and depths of cut. If the guard and the spring are not operating properly, they must be serviced before use. Guard may operate sluggishly due to damaged parts, gummy deposits, or a build-up of debris. Assure that the guide plate of the saw will not shift while performing the "plunge cut" when the blade bevel setting is not at 90°. Always observe that the guard is covering the blade before placing saw down on bench or floor. An unprotected, coasting blade will cause the saw to walk backwards, cutting whatever is in its path. Be aware of the time it takes for the blade to stop after switch is released. Use extra caution when cutting damp wood, pressure treated lumber, or wood containing knots. Adjust speed of cut to maintain smooth advancement of tool without decrease in blade speed. Place the wider portion of the saw base on that part of the workpiece which is solidly supported, not on the section that will fall off when the cut is made. Never attempt to saw with the circular saw held upside down in a vise. Do not stop the blades by lateral pressure on Always use blades recommended in this manual. MISUSE or failure to follow the safety rules stated in this instruction manual may cause serious personal injury. Loosen the clamping screw on the depth guide and move the blade lower limit stopper to the desired depth on the scale plate. For cleaner, safer cuts, set cut depth so that no more than one blade tooth projects below workpiece. Using proper cut depth helps to reduce potential for dangerous KICKBACKS which can cause personal injury. nOTE: · Setting the blade lower limit stopper to the desired depth on the scale plate allows rough depth of cut. For accurate depth of cut, measure the actual protrusion of saw blade below the tool base. Quick stop button for 2 to 3 mm depth of cut when using guide rail (accessory) Class II Construction revolutions or reciprocation per minute This tool has the quick stop button for 2 to 3 mm depth of cut on the gear housing aside the rear handle when using guide rail. Make a pass of the 2 to 3 mm first cut and then make another pass of usual cut. To obtain the 2 to 3 mm depth of cut, push in the stop button toward the saw blade. [. . . ] When using the tool without guide rail Place the tool on the workpiece with the rear edge of tool base against a fixed stop or equivalent which is devised by an operator. When using the tool with guide rail Place the tool on the guide rail with the rear edge of tool base against a fixed stop or equivalent which is clamped on the guide rail. Hold the tool firmly with one hand on the front grip and the other on the tool handle. Then push in the lock-off button and turn the tool on and wait until the blade attains full speed. [. . . ]
