blade stops turning.
POCKET CUTS

the cut.
2. Raise the Blade Guard (20) with the Blade Guard Lever (35).
3. With the Saw Blade just above the material to be cut, start the saw and allow the Saw
Blade to come to full speed.
4. Gradually lower the Saw Blade onto the stock using the front end of the Base Plate as
a pivot point.
5. When the cutting begins, release the Blade Guard.
6. When the Base Plate is resting flat on the stock being cut, proceed cutting in a forward
direction to the end of the cut.
7. When the cut is complete, release the Switch Trigger and wait for the Saw Blade to
come to a stop before lifting the saw out of the cut.
8. If necessary, complete the cut from the opposite direction in the same manner
described above.
Caution: Never pull the saw backwards since the Saw Blade will climb out of the cut and
kickback will occur.
INSPECTION, MAINTENANCE, AND CLEANING
WARNING!
Make sure the Power Switch of the Circular Saw is in its “OFF” position, and that
the tool is unplugged from its electrical outlet, before performing any inspection,
maintenance, or cleaning procedures.
1. Before each use, inspect the general condition of the Circular Saw. Check for loose
screws, misalignment or binding of moving parts, cracked or broken parts, damaged
electrical wiring, and any other condition that may affect its safe operation. If abnormal
noise or vibration occurs, have the problem corrected before further use. Do not
use damaged equipment.
