2. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long
hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
3. Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is OFF before plugging in.
Carrying tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in tools that have
the switch ON invites accidents.
4. Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool ON. A
wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in
personal injury.
5. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
Proper footing and balance enables better control of the tool in unexpected
situations.
6. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-
skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for
appropriate conditions.
TOOLS USE AND CARE
1. Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the
workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your
body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.
2. Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The
correct tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is
designed.
3. Do not use tool if switch does not turn it ON or OFF. Any tool that
cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
4. Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
5. Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained
persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
6. Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained tools, with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind
and are easier to control.
7. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts, and any other condition that may affect the tool’s operation. If
damaged, have the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained tools.
8. Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer
for your model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may become
hazardous when used on another tool.
SERVICE
1. Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel.
Service or maintenance performed by unqualified personnel could result in a
risk of injury.
2. When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow
instructions in the Maintenance Section of this manual. Use of
unauthorized parts or failure to follow Maintenance Instructions may create a
risk of electric shock or injury.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES AND SYMBOLS FOR CIRCULAR
SAWS
1. DANGER! Keep hands away from cutting area and 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. Keep your body positioned to either side of the saw blade, but not in
line with the saw blade. KICKBACK could cause the saw to jump
backwards. (See "Causes and Operator Prevention of KICKBACK.")
3. Do not reach underneath the work. The guard cannot protect you from
the blade below the work.
4. Check lower guard for proper closing before each use. Do not
operate 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. Check the operation and condition 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 buildup of debris.
6. Lower guard should be retracted manually only for special cuts
such as “Pocket Cuts” and “Compound Cuts.” Raise lower guard by
Retracting Handle. As soon as blade enters the material, lower guard
must be released. For all other sawing, the lower guard should operate
automatically.
7. Always observe that the lower 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.
8. NEVER hold piece being cut in your hands or across your Ieg. It is
important to support the work properly to minimize body exposure, blade
binding, or loss of control.
9. Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces 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 tool “live” and shock
the operator.
10. When ripping always use a rip fence or straight edge guide. This
improves the accuracy of cut and reduces the chance for blade binding.
11. Always use blades with correct size and shape (diamond vs. round)
arbor holes. Blades that do not match the mounting hardware of the saw
will run eccentrically, causing loss of control.
12. Never use damaged or incorrect blade washers or bolts. The blade
washers and bolt were specially designed for your saw, for optimum
performance and safety of operation.
13. 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 tool misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or
conditions and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as given below:
4

900003 - 04-09-02.qxd 4/18/02 7:41 AM Page 5
14. Maintain a firm grip on the saw and position your body and arm in a
way that allows you to resist KICKBACK forces. KICKBACK forces can be
controlled by the operator, if proper precautions are taken.
15. 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.
16. When restarting a saw in the workpiece, center the saw blade in the
kerf and check that 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.
17. Support large panels to minimize 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.
18. Do not use dull or damaged blade. Unsharpened or improperly set
blades produce narrow kerf causing excessive friction, blade binding, and
KICKBACK.
19. Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking levers must be tight and
secure before making cut. If blade adjustment shifts while cutting, it will
cause binding and KICKBACK.
20. Use extra caution when making a “Pocket Cut” into existing walls or
other blind areas. The protruding blade may cut objects that can cause
KICKBACK.
21. Some wood contains preservatives which can be toxic. Take extra
care to prevent inhalation and skin contact when working with these
materials. Request, and follow, all safety information available from your
material supplier.
22.

MOTOR
Many Porter-Cable tools will operate on either D.C., or single phase 25 to 60
cycle A.C. current and voltage within plus or minus 5 percent of that shown
on the specification plate on the tool. Several models, however, are designed
for A.C. current only. Refer to the specification plate on your tool for proper
voltage and current rating.
CAUTION: Do not operate your tool on a current on which the
voltage is not within correct limits. Do not operate tools rated A.C.
only on D.C. current. To do so may seriously damage the tool.
EXTENSION CORD SELECTION
If an extension cord is used, make sure the conductor size is large enough to
prevent excessive voltage drop which will cause loss of power and possible
motor damage. A table of recommended extension cord sizes will be found
in this section. This table is based on limiting line voltage drop to 5 volts (10
volts for 230 volts) at 150% of rated amperes.
If an extension cord is to be used outdoors it must be marked with the suffix
W-A or W following the cord type designation. For example – SJTW-A to
indicate it is acceptable for outdoor use.

OPERATION
HOW TO USE THE SAW
For maximum protection of the operator, effective control of this powerful
saw requires two-handed operation.
WARNING: It is important to support the work properly and to hold
the saw firmly to prevent loss of control which could cause personal
injury. Fig. 14 illustrates proper hand support of the saw.
Clamp work on a rigid support such as a bench or saw horses. See Fig. 14.
Mark the line of cut on the work. Be sure cut-off line is beyond end of support
to the right only enough to allow proper operation of the telescoping guard.
Place front edge of saw squarely on work before starting motor. Sight the

Fig. 14
cutting line with the line-of-cut indicator Fig. 9. Back saw up slightly and start
motor. Move saw forward keeping the edge of line indicator parallel to line of
cut.
CAUTION: Keep the cord away from cutting area, so it does not get
hung up in the work being cut. See Fig. 14.
Do not force the cut. Let the saw do the cutting at the rate of speed
permitted by the type of cut and the material being cut. When the cut is
completed, release the switch and allow the blade to stop before lifting the
saw from the work. On through-cuts, be sure the lower blade guard is
closed, before setting the saw down.
CROSS-CUTTING
Cutting directly across the grain of a piece of lumber is called crosscutting.
Fig. 14 illustrates a crosscut operation. Position the work so that the cut will
be on the right, as shown.
RIPPING
Cutting wood lengthwise is referred to as ripping. This operation is
performed in the same manner as crosscutting with the exception of
supporting the material to be cut. If material is supported on a large table,
bench or floor, several pieces of scrap stock approximately one inch thick
should be placed beneath the material to allow clearance for the portion of
the saw blade that extends through the material. Large sheets of paneling or
thin plywood supported on saw horses should have 2 x 4’s placed
lengthwise between the horses and the material, to prevent it from sagging
in the center.
For narrow rip cuts, the rip guide, available as an accessory can be used.
The saw is guided by keeping the inner face of the rip guide, Fig. 13, tight
against the edge of the board.
For making wider cuts, such as might be made in plywood and wide sheets,
a wooden guide strip, against which the left edge of the saw base can be
guided, can be tacked or clamped to the work, as shown in Fig. 15. NOTE:
The depth of cut must be adjusted to allow for the thickness of the wooden
guide strip.

Fig. 15
BEVEL CUTTING
Bevel cuts are made in the same manner as crosscuts and rip cuts. The only
difference is that the blade is set at an angle between 0° and 45°, as shown
in Fig. 16.
Fig. 16
The bevel cut made at an angle to the edge of a board is called a compound
cut. There are certain compound cuts, on which it may be necessary to
manually retract the telescoping guard to allow the blade to enter into
and/or through the cut.
CAUTION: Use the lever (A) Fig. 14, provided on the telescoping
guard when you have to retract the telescoping guard manually.
POCKET CUTS (PLUNGE CUTTING)
A pocket cut is one which must be made inside the area of the material and
not starting from the edge. Mark the area clearly with lines on all sides. Start
near the corner of one side and place front edge of saw base firmly on the
work. Hold saw up so blade clears the material. Be sure you have adjusted
the blade properly for depth of cut. Push the telescoping guard lever all the
way back so the blade is exposed as shown in Fig. 17. Start the motor and
lower the blade into the work. After the blade has cut through, and the base
rests flat on the work, follow the line right up to the corner. Use a keyhole or
bayonet saw to cut the corners out clean.

MAINTENANCE
KEEP TOOL CLEAN
Periodically blow out all air passages with dry compressed air. All plastic
parts should be cleaned with a soft damp cloth. NEVER use solvents to
clean plastic parts. They could possibly dissolve or otherwise damage the
material.
CAUTION: Wear safety glasses while using compressed air.
FAILURE TO START
Should your tool fail to start, check to make sure the prongs on the cord
plug are making good contact in the outlet. Also, check for blown fuses or
open circuit breakers in the line.
LUBRICATION
Your machine is lubricated at the factory with sufficient lubricant to last for
approximately 100 hours of operation. To add lubricant, it is necessary to
dismantle the tool. This operation should always be handled by the nearest
PORTER-CABLE AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER. All repairs and servicing
made by these centers are fully guaranteed against defective materials and
workmanship.
BRUSH INSPECTION AND LUBRICATION
For your continued safety and electrical protection, brush inspection and
replacement on this tool should ONLY be performed by an AUTHORIZED
