4.1. FIT BATTERY
4.2. BATTERY CHARGE STATUS TEST
4.2.1. Press trigger, all LEDs lit: battery charged, one LED lit: battery needs charging.
4.3. In order to maintain battery e󰀩ciency: DO NOT fully discharge. After every use fully charge the battery, charge every 4 months
even if tool is not used. If a decrease of performance of the tool is noticed, charge the battery.
5. OPERATION
5.1. SETTING DEPTH OF CUT
5.1.1. Loosen the Cut Depth Lock and adjust the position of the saw blade to suit. Use the scale engraved on the metal bracket aligned
with the moulded mark on the body to set the required depth. Ensure that the Lock screw is rmly tightened before use.
5.2. SETTING CUT BEVEL ANGLE
5.2.1. Loosen the Bevel Lock (g.1) and adjust the angle of the saw to suit. Use the scale engraved on the sole plate set to the
required angle. Ensure that the Lock screw is rmly tightened before use.
5.3. CUTTING PROCEDURES
9Secure loose work pieces with a clamp, vice or other adequate holding device.
8DO NOT switch the saw on whilst the blade is in contact with the workpiece.
5.3.1. Depress the Trigger Lock (g.1) in either direction and gently squeeze the Trigger (g.1).
NOTE: To stop the motor, release the Trigger. The Trigger Lock will automatically re-engage.
▲DANGER: 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.
8DO NOT reach underneath the workpiece. The guard cannot protect you from the blade below the workpiece.
5.3.2. 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.
5.3.3. Never hold piece being cut in your hands or across your leg. Secure the Workpiece to a stable platform. It is important to support
the work properly to minimize body exposure, blade binding, or loss of control.
5.3.4. Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only, when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden
wiring. Contact with a “live” wire will also make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the
operator an electric shock. 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.
5.3.5. 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.
5.4. KICKBACK CAUSES AND RELATED WARNINGS
5.4.1. 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.
5.4.2. 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.
5.4.3. a) Maintain a rm 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.

5.4.4. b) 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.
5.4.5. 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.
5.4.6. c) 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.
5.4.7. d) 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.
5.4.8. e) DO NOT use dull or damaged blades. Unsharpened or improperly set blades produce narrow kerf causing excessive friction, blade
binding and kickback.
5.4.9. f) 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.
5.4.10. G) Use extra caution when sawing into existing walls or other blind areas. The protruding blade may cut objects that can cause
kickback.
5.5. LOWER GUARD FUNCTION
5.5.1. a) Check lower guard for proper closing before each use. DO NOT operate the saw if lower guard does not move freely and close
instantly. Never clamp or tie the lower guard into the open position. If saw is accidentally dropped, lower guard may be bent. Raise the
lower guard with the retracting handle and make sure it moves freely and does not touch the blade or any other part, in all angles and
depths of cut.
5.5.2. b) Check the operation of the lower guard spring. If the guard and the spring are not operating properly, they must be serviced before
use. Lower guard may operate sluggishly due to damaged parts, gummy deposits, or a build-up of debris.
5.5.3. c) Lower guard may be retracted manually only for special cuts such as “plunge cuts” and “compound cuts”. Raise lower guard by
retracting handle and as soon as blade enters the material, the lower guard must be released. For all other sawing, the lower guard
should operate automatically.
5.5.4. d) Always observe that the lower guard is covering the blade before placing saw down on bench or oor. 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.
5.6. GUARD FUNCTION
5.6.1. a) 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 so that the blade is 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.
5.6.2. b) 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.
5.6.3. c) Assure that the base 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.
5.6.4. d) Always observe that the guard is covering the blade before placing saw down on bench or oor. 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.
6. MAINTENANCE
WARNING! Remove battery from tool before performing any maintenance or making adjustments.
6.1. Remove dust with a soft bristled brush.
8DO NOT use solvents. Clean with a soft damp cloth. DO NOT use compressed air (risk of ejection).
6.2. Tool does not require any special maintenance (it is permanently lubricated inside). Professional repair only, contact authorised
