•STAY ALERT AND EXERCISE CONTROL. Keep body positioned to one side of blade. Always maintain a firm grip and control of saw with both hands. Do not change hand grip or body position while saw is running. Take precaution to avoid injury from cut off pieces and other falling material during operation.

DANGER: RELEASE SWITCH IMMEDIATELY IF BLADE BINDS OR SAW STALLS

GUARD AGAINST KICKBACK

•KICKBACK CAN BE CAUSED BY the saw blade becoming pinched, twisted or bound while cutting, or when the saw stalls. When the blade becomes twisted or misaligned in the cut, the teeth at the back edge of the blade can dig into the top surface of the wood causing the blade to climb out of the cut and move suddenly back toward the operator.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF KICKBACK

•Keep a firm grip on saw with both hands at all times.

•Stay alert – exercise control.

•Support long overhanging materials. As the material is cut and weakens, it will sag, causing a pinched blade.

•Support large panels as shown (Fig. 1). Material supported only at the ends (Fig. 2) will lead to blade pinching.

•Avoid sawing overhead. Material can sag and will pinch blade.

•Keep blades sharp and clean.

•Use fence or straight edge guide when ripping. Be careful as the cut off strip can sag or twist, closing the cut and pinching the blade, leading to KICKBACK.

•Don’t force tool. Wood variables such as knots, hardness, toughness, wetness, pressure treated and freshly cut green lumber can heavily load the saw which can lead to stalling. Push the saw slower when this occurs.

•Don’t remove saw from work during a cut while the blade is moving.

•Allow saw to reach full speed before blade contacts material to be cut. Starting the saw with the blade against the work or pushed forward into cut can lead to stalling or sudden backward movement of saw.

•Never attempt to lift saw when making a bevel cut. This leads to blade binding and stalling.

•Always secure work to prevent workpiece movement during cut.

•Do not try to force saw back on line if your cut begins to go off line. This can cause KICKBACK. Stop saw and allow blade to coast down to a stop. Withdraw from cut and start a new cut on the line.

•Set depth adjustment of saw such that

one tooth of the blade projects below the workpiece as shown in (figure 6).

•Do not back up a rotating blade in the cut. Twisting the saw can cause the back edge of the blade to dig into the material, climb out of the work and run back toward the operator.

•Avoid cutting nails. Inspect for and remove all nails from lumber before cutting.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS -

LASERS

DANGER: Laser Radiation, avoid direct eye exposure, serious eye injury can result.

•Do not use optical tools such as a telescope or transit to view the laser beam.

•Position the laser so unintentional eye contact will be avoided.

•Do not operate the laser around children or allow children to operate the laser.

•Do not disassemble. Modifying the product in any way can increase the risk of laser radiation.

WARNING: Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified in this manual may result in hazardous laser radiation exposure.

•Do not adjust the laser on the saw unit, when the circular saw is plugged in.

•Do not operate in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust.

•Use only with the specifically designated batteries. Use of any other batteries may create a risk of fire.

•Store idle product out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Lasers are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

•Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be suitable for one laser, may create a risk of injury when used on another laser.

•Repairs and servicing MUST be performed by a qualified repair facility. Repairs performed by unqualified personnel could result in serious injury.

•Do not remove or deface warning labels. Removing labels increases the risk of exposure to radiation.

•For indoor use only.
