READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS  
KNOW YOUR POWER TOOL - Read operator's  
manual carefully. Learn its applications and limita-  
tions as well as the specific potential hazards re-  
lated to this tool.  
MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp  
at all times, and clean for best and safest perfor-  
mance.Followinstructionsforlubricatingandchang-  
ing accessories.  
GUARD AGAINST ELECTRICAL SHOCK BY  
PREVENTING BODY CONTACT WITH  
GROUNDED SURFACES. For example: Pipes,  
radiators, ranges, refrigerator enclosures.  
DISCONNECT TOOLS. When not in use, before  
servicing, or when changing attachments, blades,  
bits, cutters, etc., all tools should be disconnected  
from power supply.  
KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working order.  
REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES.  
Form habit of checking to see that keys and adjust-  
ing wrenches are removed from tool before turning  
it on.  
KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and  
benches invite accidents.  
AVOID DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT. Don't use  
power tool in damp or wet locations or expose to  
rain. Keep work area well lit.  
AVOID ACCIDENTAL STARTING. Don't carry  
plugged-in tools with finger on switch. Be sure  
switch is off when plugging in.  
KEEP CHILDREN AND VISITORS AWAY. All visi-  
tors should wear safety glasses and be kept a safe  
distance from work area. Do not let visitors contact  
tool or extension cord.  
MAKE SURE YOUR EXTENSION CORD IS IN  
GOOD CONDITION. When using an extension  
cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the  
current your product will draw. An undersized cord  
will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of  
power and overheating. A wire gage size (A.W.G.)  
ofatleast12isrecommendedforanextensioncord  
100 feet or less in length. A cord exceeding 100 feet  
is not recommended. If in doubt, use the next  
heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the  
heavier the cord.  
STORE IDLE TOOLS. When not in use, tools  
should be stored in a dry, high or locked-up place -  
out of the reach of children.  
DON'T FORCE TOOL. It will do the job better and  
safer at the rate for which it was designed.  
USE RIGHT TOOL. Don't force small tool or attach-  
menttodothejobofaheavydutytool.Don'tusetool  
for purpose not intended - for example - Don't use  
a circular saw for cutting tree limbs or logs.  
OUTDOOR USE EXTENSION CORDS. When tool  
is used outdoors, use only extension cords in-  
tended for use outdoors and so marked.  
WEAR PROPER APPAREL. No loose clothing or  
jewelry to get caught in moving parts. Rubber  
gloves and nonskid footwear are recommended  
when working outdoors. Also, wear protective hair  
covering to contain long hair and keep it from being  
drawn into air vents.  
KEEP BLADES CLEAN AND SHARP. Sharp  
blades minimize stalling and kickback. Also, keep  
blades properly tightened at all times.  
KEEP HANDS AWAY FROM CUTTING AREA.  
Keephandsawayfromblades. Donotreachunder-  
neath work while blade is cutting. Do not attempt to  
remove material while blade is cutting.  
ALWAYS WEAR SAFETY GLASSES. Everyday  
eyeglasses have only impact-resistant lenses; they  
are NOT safety glasses.  
NEVER USE IN AN EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERE.  
PROTECT YOUR LUNGS. Wear a face or dust  
Normal sparking of the motor could ignite fumes.  
mask if operation is dusty.  
INSPECT TOOL CORDS PERIODICALLY and if

center. Stay constantly aware of cord location.  
PROTECT YOUR HEARING. Wear hearing pro-  
tection during extended periods of operation.  
DON'T ABUSE CORD. Never carry tool by cord or  
yank it to disconnect from receptacle. Keep cord  
away from heat, oil and sharp edges.  
INSPECT EXTENSION CORDS PERIODICALLY  
and replace if damaged.  
KEEPHANDLESDRY,CLEAN,ANDFREEFROM  
OIL AND GREASE. Always use a clean cloth when  
cleaning. Never use brake fluids, gasoline, petro-  
leum-based products or any strong solvents to  
clean your tool.

OPERATION  
FLUSH CUTTING  
See Figure 10.  
Your saw has been designed with a flush cutting feature  
which permits cutting close to floors or walls. To fit your  
cutting requirements, cuts may be made in either direction by  
reversing the position of the blade in the blade clamp. See  
page 8 for instructions on installing Flush Cutting Blade.  
METAL CUTTING  
See Figure 11.  
Metalssuchassheetsteel,pipe,steelrods,aluminum,brass,  
and copper may be cut with your saw. Be careful not to twist  
or bend the saw blade. DO NOT FORCE. We recommend  
cutting oil when cutting most soft metals and steel. Cutting oil  
will also keep blades cool, increase cutting action, and  
prolong blade life.  
Never use gasoline since normal sparking of motor could  
ignite fumes. Clamp the work firmly and cut close to the  
clamping point to eliminate any vibration of the work being  
cut. When cutting conduit pipe or angle iron, clamp work in a  
vise if possible and cut close to the vise. To cut thin sheet  
material, "sandwich" the material between hardboard or  
plywood and clamp the layers to eliminate vibration and  
material tearing.

LUBRICATION  
All of the bearings in this tool are lubricated with a sufficient  
amount of high grade lubricant for the life of the unit under  
normaloperatingconditions. Therefore, nofurtherlubrication  
is required.

When using a power tool at a considerable distance from a power  
source, be sure to use an extension cord that has the capacity to  
handle the current the tool will draw. An undersized cord will cause  
a drop in line voltage, resulting in overheating and loss of power.  
Use the chart to determine the minimum wire size required in an  
extension cord. Only round jacketed cords should be used.

When working with a tool outdoors, use an extension cord that is  
designed for outside use. This is indicated by the letters "WA" on  
the cord's jacket.  
CAUTION: Keep the extension cord clear of the working  
area. Position the cord so that it will not get caught on lumber,  
tools or other obstructions while you are working with a power  
tool.  
Before using any extension cord, inspect it for loose or exposed  
wires and cut or worn insulation.  
**Used on 12 gauge - 20 amp circuit.
