WARNING:

To prevent accidental starting that could cause possible serious personal injury, assemble all parts to your saw before attaching battery pack. Battery pack should never be attached to saw when you are assembling parts, making adjustments, installing or removing blades, or when not in use.

Failure to remove battery pack from your saw could result in accidental starting causing possible serious personal injury.

To install the dust guide, place the end marked INSERT over the exhaust port in the upper blade guard. Turn the guide so that the open end is facing down or toward the rear of the saw.

For more efficient operation, empty dust bag when no more than half full. This will permit better air flow through the bag.
