90550103 PCL186 Circular Saw
• Do not mix old and new batteries. Replace all of them at the same time with new
batteries of the same brand and type.
• Remove dead batteries immediately and dispose of per local codes.
• Do not dispose of batteries in fire.
• Keep batteries out of reach of children.
• Remove batteries if the device will not be used for several months.
"Transporting batteries can possibly cause fires if the battery terminals inadvertently
come in contact with conductive materials such as keys, coins, hand tools and the
like. The US Department of Transportation Hazardous Material Regulations (HMR)
actually prohibit transporting batteries in commerce or on airplanes (i.e. packed in
suitcases and carryon luggage) UNLESS they are properly protected from short
circuits. So when transporting individual batteries, make sure that the battery
terminals are protected and well insulated from materials that could contact them
and cause a short circuit."
ON BOARD LASER
Some saw models are equipped with an on board laser which is turned on and off
separately from the saw.
:
LASER RADIATION. Never aim the beam at a workpiece with a
reflective surface. Bright shiny reflective sheet steel or similar reflective surfaces are
not recommended for laser use. Reflective surfaces could direct the beam back toward
the operator.
:
LASER RADIATION. AVOID DIRECT EYE EXPOSURE. Do not stare
into the laser light source. Never aim light at another person or object other than
the workpiece. Laser light can damage your eyes.
:
DO NOT use tinted glasses to enhance the laser light. Tinted
glasses will reduce overall vision for the application and interfere with the normal operation
of the tool.
SWITCHING THE LASER ON AND OFF
• To turn the laser on, press the laser on/off button (3). To turn the laser off, press the
button a second time.
NOTE: The laser on/off button occupies two different positions, the lower position is
"on" (slightly depressed below flush) and the upper position is "off" (button is flush with
the surface).
ADJUSTING THE LASER - FIGURE O
:
TURN OFF TOOL AND REMOVE BATTERY PACK FROM SAW
BEFORE CHANGING ACCESSORIES OR MAKING ANY ADJUSTMENTS.
The laser can be adjusted to remove lateral
and angular error.
• Using a securely mounted scrap piece of
plywood or sheathing make a partial cut
with this saw at least as long as the shoe.
• Turn the saw off, hold the saw motionless
and after the blade stops rotating, remove
the saw from the cut.
• Using a straight edge and pencil, draw a
straight line on the plywood as if extending
the cut from where it ended.
• REMOVE THE SAW BATTERY BEFORE
MAKING LASER ADJUSTMENTS.
• With the saw set at maximum depth of cut,
retract the lower guard and place the saw
blade back in the cut to where it ended (at
the start of the pencil line).
• With the saw shoe sitting solidly on the plywood, turn the laser on, loosen the laser
adjustment screw (26) with the supplied wrench (12) and use the adjustment tabs (27)
on each side of the laser module to align the laser line with the pencil line then
retighten the adjustment screw.
• Turn the laser off and remove the saw from the cut before reinserting the saw battery.
