Saw cover
The lower guard (refer to Fig. 17) serves to protect
your body from coming into contact with the saw
blade.
Make absolutely certain that the cover
smoothly performs to cover the saw blade. If the
lower guard should not move smoothly, never use it
without repairing it.
In such a case, get in touch with the store where

5. Check for proper operation of the brake
This circular saw features an electric brake that
functions when the switch is released. Before using
the circular saw, ensure that the electric brake
functions properly. If it does not, bring the tool to a
metabo HPT AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER.
6. Prepare a wooden work bench (Fig. 18)
Since the saw blade will extend beyond the lower
surface of the lumber, place the lumber on a work
bench when cutting. If a square block is utilized
as a work bench, select level ground to ensure it is
properly stabilized. An unstable work bench will result
in hazardous operation.

CAUTION
To avoid possible accident, always ensure that
the portion of lumber remaining after cutting is
securely anchored or held in position.
7. Check if the cutting depth lever and incline lever are
tightened.
If the the cutting depth lever to adjust cutting depth
(Fig. 21) and the incline lever to adjust angle of
inclination (Fig. 22) are loose, injury can result. Make
sure that they are tightened securely.
