saw. The dust from metal or masonry cutting will
cause the lower guard to become sluggish and may
not close fully and quickly after cutting these
materials.
Abrasive dust may cause lower guard to fail.
feed devices with this circular saw. Masonry
cutting waste will enter the lower guard system,
harden and cause the guard to become inoperable.
Use of water in masonry cutting applications with an
electric circular saw will cause electric shock
hazards.
▶ Plunge Cuts
Disconnect battery pack from tool before making
ad justments. Set depth adjustment according to
material to be cut. Reattach battery pack to the saw.
Tilt saw forward with cutting guide notch lined up
with the line you've drawn. Raise the lower guard,
using lift lever and hold the saw by the front and rear
handles (Fig. 11).

surface being cut, proceed cutting in forward
direction to end of cut.
lifting the saw from cut. Also, never pull the saw
backward since blade will climb out of the
material and KICKBACK will occur. Turn saw
around and finish the cut in the normal manner,
sawing forward. If corners of your pocket cut are not
completely cut through, use a jigsaw or hand saw to
finish the corners.
▶ Cutting Large Sheets
Large sheets and long boards sag or bend,
depending on support. If you attempt to cut without
leveling and properly supporting the piece, the
blade will tend to bind, causing KICK-BACK and
extra load on the motor (Fig. 12).

Support the panel or board close to the cut, as
shown in (Fig. 13). Be sure to set the depth of
the cut so that you cut through the sheet or board
only and not the table or work bench. The two-by-
fours used to raise and support the work should
be positioned so that the broadest sides support
the work and rest on the table or bench. Do not
support the work with the narrow sides as this is
an unsteady arrangement. If the sheet or board to
be cut is too large for a table or work bench, use the
supporting two-by-fours on the floor and secure.
