ASSEMBLY
Wipe a drop of oil onto inner blade washer and outer blade
washer ("D" washer) where they contact blade.
WARNING:
Fit saw blade inside blade guard and onto spindle.
NOTE: The saw teeth point upward at the front of the saw
as shown in Figure 2.
Replace "D" washer and spring washer.
NOTE: "Cupped" side of spring washer goes against "D"
washer.
See Figure 2.
Replace blade screw. Tighten blade screw securely.
NOTE: Turn blade screw clockwise to tighten.
REMEMBER: Never use a blade that is too thick to allow the
"D" washer to engage with the flat on the spindle.
SAW BLADES
The best of saw blades will not cut efficiently if they are not
kept clean, sharp, and properly set. Using a dull blade will
place a heavy load on your saw and increase the danger of
kickback. Keep extra blades on hand, so that sharp blades
are always available.
Gum and wood pitch hardened on blades will slow your saw
down. Remove saw blade from your saw and use gum and
pitch remover, hot water, or kerosene to remove these
accumulations. DO NOT USE GASOLINE.
BLADE GUARD SYSTEM
See Figure 4.
The lower blade guard attached to your circular saw is
there for your protection and safety. It should never be
altered for any reason. If it becomes damaged, do not
operate your saw until the damage has been repaired or
replaced. Always leave guard in operating position when
using your saw.
DANGER:
When sawing through work, lower blade guard does not
cover blade on the underside of work. Since blade is
exposed on underside of work, keep hands and fingers
away from cutting area. Any part of your body coming in
contact with moving blade will result in serious injury.
Never use saw when guard is not operating correctly.
Guard should be checked for correct operation before
each use.
NOTE: The guard is operating correctly when it moves
freely and readily returns to the closed position. If you
drop your saw, check the lower blade guard for damage
at all depth settings before reuse.
