DOUBLE INSULATION
Your Ryobi power tool is double insulated. This means
you are separated from the tool's electrical system by
two complete sets of electrical insulation. This extra
layer of insulation is intended to protect the user from
electrical shock due to a break in the wiring insulation. All
exposed metal parts are isolated from the internal metal
motor components with protecting insulation. Double
insulated tools do not need to be grounded.
WARNING:
The double insulated system is intended to protect
the user from shock resulting from a break in the tool's
internal wiring. Observe all normal safety precautions
related to avoiding electrical shock.
Important: Servicing of a tool with double insulation
requires extreme care and knowledge of the system and
should be performed only by a qualified service
technician. For service we suggest you return the tool to
your nearest RYOBI AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER
for repair. When servicing use only identical Ryobi
replacement parts.
ELECTRIC MOTOR
Your circular saw has a precision-built electric motor. It
should be connected to a power supply that is 120
volts, 60 Hz only. Do not operate this tool on direct
current (DC). A substantial voltage drop will cause a loss
of power and the motor will overheat. If your saw does
not operate when plugged into an outlet, double-check
the power supply.
FEATURES
SWITCH
Your circular saw is equipped with a pre-travel safety
switch which reduces the possibility of accidental starting.
When you depress the switch, the saw will not start until
you reach the pre-travel position. You must depress the
switch fully to activate the saw.
SPINDLE LOCK
The spindle lock allows you to secure the blade when
turning the blade screw.
NOTE: Do not run circular saw with spindle lock engaged.
DUST CHUTE
To direct saw dust and chips away from the operator, a
dust chute is located on the side of the upper blade
guard.
ERGONOMIC DESIGN
The design of your circular saw provides for easy handling
and maintaining proper two hand control when cutting. It
has been designed to be comfortable and easy to grasp
when operating in different positions or at different
angles.
