Working hints for your circular
saw
If your power tool becomes too hot, please run your circular saw no
load for 2-3 minutes to cool the motor. Avoid prolonged usage at very
low speeds.
Protect saw blades against impact and shock. Excessive feed
significantly reduces the performance capability of the machine and
reduces the service life of the saw blade. Sawing performance and
cutting quality depend essentially on the condition and the tooth
form of the saw blade. Therefore, use only sharp saw blades that are
suited for the material to be worked.
PARALLEL GUIDE (See Fig.F)
The parallel guide (8) enables exact cuts along a workpiece edge and
cutting strips of the same dimension.
BEVEL CUTS (See Fig.G)
Set required bevel angle between 0° and 56°. Do not use the depth
of cut scale when making bevel cuts due to possible inaccuracy.
POCKET CUTTING (SOFT MATERIALS ONLY) (See Fig.H1 & H2)
This operation requires much skill with a saw and must only be
carried out by a competent person.
Warning: the blade teeth are exposed during this operation so
proceed with extreme caution.
Clearly mark the area to be cut. Set the depth of cut on the saw.
Position the saw over the marked area with the front edge of the
base plate resting on the work surface and cutting guide aligned with

marked line on workpiece. Ensure the blade is not touching but is
close to the work surface. The moving lower guard must be rotated
open by using lever. Switch the saw on and gently swing the blade
down into the material but maintain a pivoting force on the front edge
of the base. The moving lower guard can now be released for normal
action of the guard.
Maintenance
Remove the plug from the socket before carrying out any
adjustment, servicing or maintenance.
Your tool requires no additional lubrication or maintenance. There are
no user serviceable parts in your tool. Never use water or chemical
cleaners to clean your tool. Wipe clean with a dry cloth. Always
store your tool in a dry place. Keep the motor ventilation slots clean.
Occasionally you may see sparks through the ventilation slots. This is
normal and will not damage your power tool.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order
to avoid a hazard.
Environmental protection
Waste electrical products should not be disposed of with
household waste. Please recycle where facilities exist. Check
with your local authorities or retailer for recycling advice.
