SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES USB008-5
DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with product (gained from
repeated use) replace strict adherence to circular saw safety
rules. If you use this tool unsafely or incorrectly, you can suffer
serious personal injury.
1. DANGER! Keep hands away from cutting
area and blade. Keep your second hand
on auxiliary handle, or motor housing. If
both hands are holding the saw, they cannot
be cut by the blade.
Keep your body positioned to either side
of the saw blade, but not in line with the
saw blade. KICKBACK could cause the saw
to jump backwards. (See “Causes and Oper-
ator Prevention of Kickback”)
Do not reach underneath the work. The
guard can not protect you from the blade
below the work. Do not attempt to remove cut
material when blade is moving.
CAUTION: Blades coast after turn off. Wait
until blade stops before grasping cut material.
2. Check lower guard for proper closing
before each use. Do not operate saw if
lower guard does not move freely and
close instantly. Never clamp or tie the
lower guard into the open position. If saw
is accidentally dropped, lower guard may be
bent. Raise the lower guard with the Retract-
ing Lever and make sure it moves freely and
does not touch the blade or any other part, in
all angles and depths of cut.
To check lower guard, open lower guard by
hand, then release and watch guard closure.
Also check to see that Retracting Lever does
not touch tool housing. Leaving blade
exposed is VERY DANGEROUS and can
lead to serious personal injury.
