handle for two hand operation. Operate
with proper hand support, proper work-
piece support, and supply cord routing
away from the work area.
WARNING: It is important to support the
workpiece properly and to hold the saw
firmly to prevent loss of control which
could cause personal injury. Fig. 4 illus-
trates typical hand support of the saw.

Place the wider portion of the saw base on
that part of the workpiece which is solidly
supported, not on the section that will fall
off when the cut is made. As examples,
Fig. 5 illustrates the RIGHT way to cut off
the end of a board, and Fig. 6 the WRONG
way. If the workpiece is short or small,
clamp it down. DO NOT TRY TO HOLD
SHORT PIECES BY HAND!
17.
Never attempt to saw with the circular saw
held upside down in a vise. This is
extremely dangerous and can lead to seri-
ous accidents.
18.
WARNING: Blade coasts to stop after
switch is released. Contact with coasting
blade can cause serious injury. Before
setting the tool down after completing a
cut, be sure that the lower (telescoping)
guard has closed and the blade has come
to a complete stop.
19.
Some material contains chemicals which
