To tighten, turn counterclockwise.
Note: Never engage the blade lock while the saw is running,
or engage in an effort to stop the tool.
Never turn the tool on while the blade lock is engaged.
Serious damage to your saw will result.
Lower Blade Guard
Warning! Laceration Hazard. The lower blade guard is a
safety feature which reduces the risk of serious personal
injury. Never use the saw if the lower guard is missing, dam-
aged, misassembled or not working properly. Do not rely on
the lower blade guard to protect you under all circumstances.
Your safety depends on following all warnings and precautions
as well as proper operation of the saw. Check lower guard for
proper closing before each use as outlined in Additional Safety
Rules for Circular Saws. If the lower blade guard is missing
or not working properly, have the saw serviced before using.
To assure product safety and reliability, repair, maintenance
and adjustment should be performed by an authorized service
center or other qualified service organization, always using
identical replacement parts.
Warning! To minimize the risk of eye injury, always use eye
protection. Foreign objects in the work place such as wire or
nails can cause tips to crack or break. Only operate saw when
proper saw blade guard is in place. Mount blade securely in
proper rotation before using, and always use a clean, sharp
blade.
Warning! To reduce the risk of injury, It is important to support
the work properly and to hold the saw firmly to prevent loss of
control which could cause personal injury. Figure E illustrates
typical hand support.
