correct ring for the blade ' s arbor hole you intend
to use is installed between the inner and the outer
flanges. Use of the incorrect arbor hole ring may
result in the improper mounting of the blade causing
blade movement and severe vibration resulting in
possible loss of control during operation and in seri-
ous personal injury.
Blade guard cleaning
When changing the circular saw blade, make sure to

kickback, possibly causing severe injury.
CAUTION:
Never twist or force the tool in
the cut. This may cause motor overload and/or a
dangerous kickback, resulting in serious injury to the
