Hold the tool firmly. The tool is provided with both a front
grip and rear handle. Use both to best grasp the tool.
If both hands are holding saw, they cannot be cut by
the circular saw blade. Set the base on the workpiece
to be cut without the circular saw blade making any
contact. Then turn the tool on and wait until the circular
saw blade attains full speed. Now simply move the tool
forward over the workpiece surface, keeping it flat and
advancing smoothly until the sawing is completed.
To get clean cuts, keep your sawing line straight and your
speed of advance uniform. If the cut fails to properly follow
your intended cut line, do not attempt to turn or force the
tool back to the cut line. Doing so may bind the circular
saw blade and lead to dangerous kickback and possible
serious injury. Release switch, wait for circular saw blade
to stop and then withdraw tool. Realign tool on new cut
line, and start cut again. Attempt to avoid positioning
which exposes operator to chips and wood dust being
ejected from saw. Use eye protection to help avoid injury.

► 1 . Rip fence (Guide rule) 2. Clamping screw
The handy rip fence allows you to do extra-accurate
straight cuts. Simply slide the rip fence up snugly
against the side of the workpiece and secure it in posi-
tion with the clamping screw on the front of the base. It
also makes repeated cuts of uniform width possible.

MAINTENANCE

Always be sure that the tool is
CAUTION:
switched off and unplugged before attempting to
perform inspection or maintenance.
Clean out the guard to ensure
CAUTION:
there is no accumulated sawdust and chips
which may impede the operation of the guarding
system. A dirty guarding system may limit the proper
operation which could result in serious personal
injury. The most effective way to accomplish this
cleaning is with compressed air. If the dust is being
blown out of the guard, be sure the proper eye
and breathing protection is used.
Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner,

alcohol or the like. Discoloration, deformation or
