Before Operating
Before operating your Circular Saw check for damaged parts. Before using any tool, any part that appears
damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended
function.
DO NOT exceed the tools maximum capacity.
Never force the tool or attachment to do the work of a larger industrial tool. It is designed to do the job better
and more safely at the rate for which it was intended.
Do not try to use inappropriate attachments in an attempt to exceed the tool’s capacity. Approved accessories
are available from Harbor Freight T ools.
Make sure all clamps, locks and bolts are tight.
MAKE CERTAIN TO TURN OFF THE SAW, AND REMOVE THE BATTERY PACK WHEN MOVING OR
LOADING OR WHEN DOING ANY MAINTENANCE. THE TOOL SHOULD AL W AYS BE TURNED OFF WHEN

Do not store the battery in a box with other metal objects.
Do not throw the battery in a fire. Ni-Cd Battery must be recycled or disposed of properly.
Note: The operation time of a new battery will ramp up as it is properly used and recharged. It will take
about 5 cycles before the battery is at maximum efficiency. Warning: If two or more batteries are to
be charged, allow the Quick Charger time to cool down between charges. Charging room temperature:
50° F - 104° F.
Note: Always switch to a fresh battery when tool
performance begins to diminish. Severe heat is most
destructive to a battery; the more heat generated, the faster
the battery loses power. A battery that gets too hot can be
permanently damaged. Never over-discharge a battery by
using the tool even after tool performance is decreasing. Never
attempt to discharge a tool’s battery by continuing to pull the
tool trigger. When tool performance begins to diminish,
stop the tool, recharge the battery and use the fresh
battery for optimal performance.
