END201-2 Symbols The following show the symbols used for the equipment. Be sure that you understand their meaning before use. SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES GEB031-1 ............ Read instruction manual. ............. DOUBLE INSULATION Intended use ENE067-1 The tool is specially intended for performing plunge cuts. In addition, lengthways and crossways straight cuts and mitre cuts with angles in wood can also be performed while in firm contact with the workpiece. Power supply ENF002-1 The tool should be connected only to a power supply of the same voltage as indicated on the nameplate, and can only be operated on single-phase AC supply. They are double-insulated in accordance with European Standard and can, therefore, also be used from sockets without earth wire. 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. Danger: 1. Keep hands away from cutting area and the 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. 2. Do not reach underneath the workpiece or tool base. The guard cannot protect you from the blade below the workpiece. 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. 3. Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of the workpiece. Less than a full tooth of the blade teeth should be visible below the workpiece. 4. Never hold piece being cut in your hands or across your leg. Secure the workpiece to stable platform. It is important to support the work properly to minimize body exposure, blade binding, or loss of control. A typical illustration of proper hand support, workpiece support, and supply cord routing (if applicable). (Fig. 1) 7 5. Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a "live" wire will also make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and shock the operator. 6. When ripping always use a rip fence or straight edge guide. This improves the accuracy cut and reduces the chance of blade binding. 7. Always use blades with correct size and shape (diamond versus round) of arbour holes. Blades that do not match the mounting hardware of the saw will run eccentrically, causing loss of control. 8. Never use damaged or incorrect blade washers or bolt. The blade washers and bolt were specially designed for your saw, for optimum performance and safety of operation. 9. Causes and Operator Prevention of Kickback: - kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched, bound or misaligned saw blade, causing an uncontrolled saw to lift up and out of the workpiece toward the operator; - when the blade is pinched or bound tightly by the kerf closing down, the blade stalls and the motor reaction drives the unit rapidly back toward the operator; - if the blade becomes twisted or misaligned in the cut, the teeth at the back edge of the blade can dig into the top surface of the wood causing the blade to climb out of the kerf and jump back toward the operator. Kickback is the result of saw misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as given below. · Maintain a firm grip with both hands on the saw and position your arms to resist kickback forces. Position your body to either side of the blade, but not in line with the blade. Kickback could cause the saw to jump backwards, but kickback forces can be controlled by the operator, if proper precautions are taken. · When blade is binding, or when interrupting a cut for any reason, release the trigger and hold the saw motionless in the material until the blade comes to a complete stop. Never attempt to remove the saw from the work or pull the saw backward while the blade is in motion or kickback may occur. Investigate and take corrective actions to eliminate the cause of blade binding. · When restarting a saw in the workpiece, centre the saw blade in the kerf and check that saw teeth are not engaged into the material. If saw blade is binding, it may walk up or kickback from the workpiece as the saw is restarted. · Support large panels to minimise the risk of blade pinching and kickback. Large panels tend to sag under their own weight. Supports must be placed under the panel on both sides, near the line of cut and near the edge of the panel. To minimize the risk of blade pinching and kickback. When cutting operation requires the resting of the saw 8 on the workpiece, the saw should be rested on the larger portion and the smaller piece cut off. To avoid kickback, do support board or panel near the cut. (Fig. 2) Do not support board or panel away from the cut. (Fig. 3) · Do not use dull or damaged blades. Unsharpened or improperly set blades produce narrow kerf causing excessive friction, blade binding and kickback. Keep blade sharp and clean. Gum and wood pitch hardened on blades slows saw and increases potential for kickback. Keep blade clean by first removing it from tool, then cleaning it with gum and pitch remover, hot water or kerosene. Never use gasoline. · Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking levers must be tight and secure before making cut. If blade adjustment shifts while cutting, it may cause binding and kickback. · Use extra caution when making a "plunge cut" into existing walls or other blind areas. The protruding blade may cut objects that can cause kickback. · ALWAYS hold the tool firmly with both hands. NEVER place your hand, leg or any part of your body under the tool base or behind the saw, especially when making cross-cuts. If kickback occurs, the saw could easily jump backwards over your hand, leading to serious personal injury. (Fig. 4) · Never force the saw. Forcing the saw can cause uneven cuts, loss of accuracy, and possible kickback. Push the saw forward at a speed so that the blade cuts without slowing. 10. Check guard for proper closing before each use. Do not operate the saw if guard does not move freely and enclose the blade instantly. Never clamp or tie the guard with the blade exposed. If saw is accidentally dropped, guard may be bent. Check to make sure that guard moves freely and does not touch the blade or any other part, in all angles and depths of cut. 11. Check the operation and condition of the guard return spring. If the guard and the spring are not operating properly, they must be serviced before use. Guard may operate sluggishly due to damaged parts, gummy deposits, or a build-up of debris. 12. Assure that the guide plate of the saw will not shift while performing the "plunge cut" when the blade bevel setting is not at 90°. Blade shifting sideways will cause binding and likely kick back. 13. Always observe that the guard is covering the blade before placing saw down on bench or floor. An unprotected, coasting blade will cause the saw to walk backwards, cutting whatever is in its path. Be aware of the time it takes for the blade to stop after switch is released. 14. Use extra caution when cutting damp wood, pressure treated lumber, or wood containing knots. Adjust speed of cut to maintain smooth advancement of tool without decrease in blade speed. 15. Avoid Cutting Nails. Inspect for and remove all nails from lumber before cutting. 16. 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 serious accidents. (Fig. 7) 18. Some material contains chemicals which may be toxic. Take caution to prevent dust inhalation and skin contact. Follow material supplier safety data. 19. Do not stop the blades by lateral pressure on the saw blade. 20. Always use blades recommended in this manual. Do not use any abrasive wheels. 21. Wear a dust mask and hearing protection when use the tool. Quick stop button for 2 to 3 mm depth of cut when using guide rail (accessory) (Fig. 9 & 10) This tool has the quick stop button for 2 to 3 mm depth of cut on the gear housing aside the rear handle when using guide rail. This is used when avoiding splinter on the workpiece in the cut. Make a pass of the 2 to 3 mm first cut and then make another pass of usual cut. To obtain the 2 to 3 mm depth of cut, push in the stop button toward the saw blade. This is convenient for avoiding splinter on the workpiece. To release the depth of cut from this position for free depth of cut, just pull the button back. Bevel cutting (Fig. 11) Tilting to the right (Fig. 12 & 13) Turn the positive stopper so that the arrow on it points one of two positions (vertical for 22.5°, horizontal for 45°). Loosen the clamping screws in front and back. Then, tilt the tool base until it stops and secure the base with the clamping screws. To get 48° bevel angle, move the lever to 48° marking as far as it will go. Turn the positive stopper so that the arrow on it points to the horizontal position. Then, tilt the tool base until it stops and secure the base with the clamping screws. Tilting to the left (Fig. 14) The tool can be tilted to the left 1° bevel angle. To get the left 1° bevel angle, loosen the clamping screws in front and back, tilt the tool handle slightly to the right and push two bevel angle shifting levers at the same time in the direction of arrow which has a marking -1. And then tilt the tool handle to the left while pushing these two levers at the same time. Secure the base with the clamping screws. NOTE: · Returning the blade to the right angle makes the shifting lever return to 0° by itself. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. WARNING: MISUSE or failure to follow the safety rules stated in this instruction manual may cause serious personal injury. FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION CAUTION: · Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before adjusting or checking function on the tool. Adjusting depth of cut (Fig. 8) CAUTION: · After adjusting the depth of cut, always tighten the clamping screw securely. Loosen the clamping screw on the depth guide and move the blade lower limit stopper to the desired depth on the scale plate. At the desired depth of cut, tighten the clamping screw firmly. For cleaner, safer cuts, set cut depth so that no more than one blade tooth projects below workpiece. Using proper cut depth helps to reduce potential for dangerous KICKBACKS which can cause personal injury. NOTE: · Setting the blade lower limit stopper to the desired depth on the scale plate allows rough depth of cut. For accurate depth of cut, measure the actual protrusion of saw blade below the tool base. Sighting (Fig. 15) When using the tool without guide rail (accessory) For straight cuts, align the A pos ...
