manual abstract
• Do not charge batteries. • Do not mix old and new batteries. Replace all of them at the same time with new batteries of the same brand and type. • Remove dead batteries immediately and dispose of per local codes. • Do not dispose of batteries in fire. • Keep batteries out of reach of children. • Remove batteries if the device will not be used for several months. “Transporting batteries can possibly cause fires if the battery terminals inadvertently come in contact with conductive materials such as keys, coins, hand tools and the like. The US Department of Transportation Hazardous Material Regulations (HMR) actually prohibit transporting batteries in commerce or on airplanes (i.e. packed in suitcases and carryon luggage) UNLESS they are properly protected from short circuits. So when transporting individual batteries, make sure that the battery terminals are protected and well insulated from materials that could contact them and cause a short circuit.” ON BOARD LASER Your saw is equipped with an on board laser which is turned on and off separately from the saw. WARNING: LASER RADIATION. Never aim the beam at a workpiece with a reflective surface. Bright shiny reflective sheet steel or similar reflective surfaces are not recommended for laser use. Reflective surfaces could direct the beam back toward the operator. DANGER: LASER RADIATION. AVOID DIRECT EYE EXPOSURE. Do not stare into the laser light source. Never aim light at another person or object other than the workpiece. Laser light can damage your eyes. WARNING: DO NOT use tinted glasses to enhance the laser light. Tinted glasses will reduce overall vision for the application and interfere with the normal operation of the tool. 14 90537965 BD Circ Saws 5/30/08 10:11 AM Page 15 SWITCHING THE LASER ON AND OFF • To turn the laser on, press the laser on/off button (3). To turn the laser off, press the button a second time. NOTE: The laser on/off button occupies two different positions, the lower position is “on” (slightly depressed below flush) and the upper position is “off” (button is flush with the surface). ADJUSTING THE LASER -FIGURE O&P CAUTION: TURN OFF TOOL AND REMOVE BATTERY PACK FROM SAW BEFORE CHANGING ACCESSORIES OR MAKING ANY ADJUSTMENTS. The laser can be adjusted to remove lateral and angular error. • Using a securely mounted scrap piece of plywood or sheathing make a partial cut with this saw at least as long as the shoe. • Turn the saw off, hold the saw motionless and after the blade stops rotating, remove the saw from the cut. • Using a straight edge and pencil, draw a straight line on the plywood as if extending the cut from where it ended. • REMOVE THE SAW BATTERY BEFORE MAKING LASER ADJUSTMENTS. • With the saw set at maximum depth of cut, retract the lower guard and place the saw blade back in the cut to where it ended (at the start of the pencil line). • With the saw shoe sitting solidly on the plywood, turn the laser on, loosen the laser adjustment screw (26) with the supplied wrench (12) and use the adjustment tabs (27) on each side of the laser module to align the laser line with the pencil line then retighten the adjustment screw. • Turn the laser off and remove the saw from the cut before reinserting the saw battery. TO USE THE LASER LINE • Mark the line that you intend to cut on the workpiece. • Adjust the depth and angle of cut as required. • Push the laser on/off switch (3) to the “ON” position and project the laser beam. • Push in on the lock-off button (2) and depress the saw on/off switch (1) and allow the blade to reach maximum speed. • Place the saw shoe on the workpiece. Align the laser line with the mark on the workpiece and slowly push the saw forward keeping the laser line on the mark. • Upon completion of the cut, release the trigger and allow the saw blade to come to a complete stop before switching off the laser. SAWING OPERATION WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, always hold the tool with both hands. • Let the blade run freely for a few seconds before starting the cut. • Apply only a gentle pressure to the tool while performing the cut. • Work with the shoe pressed against the workpiece. POCKET CUTTING - FIGURE Q CAUTION: Never move the saw backwards when pocket cutting. This may cause the unit to raise up off the work surface which could cause injury. WARNING: Laceration Hazard. Never tie the blade guard in a raised position. Pocket cutting is used to cut a hole in a piece of material without cutting from the side. • Measure and mark work. • Tilt saw forward and rest front of the shoe on material to be cut. Align so that cut will begin at the back of the drawn rectangle. • Using the retracting lever, retract blade guard to an upward position, with the blade just clearing the material, start motor and gradually lower the saw into the material. WARNING: Laceration Hazard. As blade starts cutting the material, release the retracting lever immediately. • When the shoe rests flat on the material be...
